Comments Thread For: Deontay Wilder Open To Anthony Joshua Fight, Manager Shelly Finkel Says

[wileyhemi]

Only person who beats Wilder apart from Fury is..

Joe "granite chin" Joyce

Granite Joe is so easy to hit Wilder won't have to hurry to catch him flush with even heavier shots than he hit Ortiz and Fury. Joe might be able exceptionally to take the first couple but there will be too many punches landing for him to survive ... IMO

[The tucker]

Now they want the fight when they both have several losses and strapless. They should have did it when they was both undefeated had their belts to become undisputed.

[jqSide]

They keep repeating the same articles.

Eddie Hearn already responded and here we are back to the same subject again.

I doubt it ever happens now, rematchroom & Kanye ducked first in 2018 the year before the dazn deal, Wilder accepted the 14 mill low ball calling they're bluff then Kanye went on sky TV in a Johnny Nelson interview where he said "i won't be rushed into the Wilder fight" when asked when he said"19 20 21"Hearn then said 2020. Then Wilder offered Kanye 50 mill(proved) 1 fight deal & they still scurried away to continue the shot old man tour milking casuals.
They were both prospect belt holder's & both turned down offers to make the fight.
Your no champ if you turn down undesputed.

Count me in. I am all for it! That fight will sell. First we will have to wait and see what happens between Fury and Joshua. Deontay Wilder won't be available until at least February of 2023 and Anthony Joshua is fighting in December. So he probably won't be ready to fight again until at least April of 2023 at the earliest.

[Alan Smithee]

Yes, i want to see Wilder fight so many people but if he loses to Helenius, will he continue to fight? WHat if he then fights Josh and loses, does he continue to fight Ruiz, Dubois, Flip, Jared Anderson etc etc

If Wilder loses to Helenius he should pack it in. Don't let the Kownacki fights fool you, Duhaupas and Gerald Washington knocked this guy out. Wilder should K.O him early! Wilder/Joshua was always an intriguing fight and still is!

This media has no sense of continuity. You can't follow anything in a consistent manner.

What has happened to this other article that says:

Hearn Responds To Wilder About Joshua Deal: ‘On What Planet Would You Not Even Ask What That Offer Is?’

https://www.boxingscene.com/hearn-re...-offer--168825

Beat me to it. These people dont jump on the case when Hearn sent over a offer that literally NO ONE out of wilders management team or even Wilder chose to acknowledge, yet soon as Fury Joshua talks heat up... out pop shelly saying they want th3 fight... and people fall for narrative, knowing full well wilders 2 fights are lined up... Helenius and Ruiz.. and then sit on that till wbc enforce mandatory

[juggernaut666]

These guys always have a funny way of showing interest with no negotiation talks , Wilder repeats of not interested on Twitter when talks start up by Finkle , and fights already lined up with other fighters when Joshua is mentioned ? I don’t I know this is boxing scene and there’s a lot of thick posters but come on ?

Shirley Winkel / Wilder want to play another blame game again.
They never cease to amaze me even when they knew
they can't make the same earnings fighting on PBC cards.

I like Joyce but it looks like he took a shot in the first round or 2nd round in his last fight that he actually felt.

Anyway, are we really going to listen to Wilder and AJ talking **** for the next 10 years on how they are really wanting to fight each other? I don't think so.
