    Hey man they say history repeats itself. Wouldn't be surprised if deontay makes another bad financial decision. Btw I'm having memories of when Juan Manuel Marquez turned down 700 000$ to fight Pacquiao and if memory serves me correct he went on to fight a Chris John for a smidgen of the money and lost his title. Gonna check boxrec to see if that's right lol

      We have seen this story several times. Wilder is one of those people that are inherently dumb and he’ll end up broke 5 yrs after retirement.

      He’s already regretting it hence he outed himself on Twitter. And now he’s pushing for a fight he rejected like the other guy gives a monkey about him to do him a financial favour.

          AJ will make 8 figures regardless. How much Wilder will make going forward without fight AJ or Whyte to a lesser degree (in the U.K.) should be the question.

          I doubt he’ll make anywhere near $2m in his next fight.

            You AJ fans were brought down to reality. We knew Wilder was who he was. Big right hand, learned the craft late and made something of himself. Over achiever if you ask me. But you thought that AJ would become the greatest. Showed power against bums and old men. He drew big crowds where he fought. But cream always rises to the top. Nobody believes that Wilder avoided your boy lol. They believed the opposite. And posts like this will never gain respect because the truth always prevails, lmao. AJs is ordinary, and gutless. And now you’re finding that out, lmao.

              DAZN's offers were bait and switch. That's why Canelo's contract was terminated and Golovkin's contract was restructured. Wilder was never going to see the payout on that 3 fight, $120M deal. Especially after Joshua got exposed by Ruiz.
