      The One who "advised" him to turn down that 100/120M to fight AJ should now help him fill his pension fund, not Hearn & Joshua.
      You've made your bed, now lie in it.

      btw, since when do they do business with "devils" Hearn & DAZN?

        Preach Dee, Aj ducked on sky TV in 2018 & Wilder turned down the dazn offer in 19, I predict they'll duck.
        Muppets turned down undesputed in theyre primes, & look what happened next.

              I would still love to see this fight. At this point, you would have AJ whose been beaten down by different fighters. Wilder whose only lost to the same man twice. I think they would be perfect for each other. Not really a meaningful fight other than pretending what would of happened if they both still had all the hardware and fought. Then again, Wilder has really aged compared to when the initial call for this fight to have happened. AJ would benefit with youth being on his side still.

                This fight is still my second favorite fight that hasn't happened right behind Spence and Crawford

                    Of course its a big fight. Its big because you get differing opinions on whod win and only way to find out whos right is if they fight! Plus just because a fighter loses it dont mean you dont fight them or dont get credit for fighting and beating them still? I mean when Foreman lost to Ali, does Foreman suddenly become a bum who youd get no credit for beating as Ali beat Foreman? Foreman was still credible win for Holyfield!
                    If Josh loses to Usyk, Josh im sure will fight anyone willing to, to give you opportunity to have his name on your resume, im sure dubois would like it. Dubois wouldnt mind having Usyks used goods on his resume.
