Comments Thread For: Wilder on Joshua: I'm Not Going to Rob The Fans From Not Making That Fight Happen

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Deontay Wilder is apparently still all ears for a fight with Anthony Joshua, despite their bad blood. In a recent interview, the former heavyweight from Tuscaloosa, Alabama, affirmed that his interest in a bout with London's Joshua, also a former titlist, remains high. The two were seemingly engaged in serious negotiations in 2018 but their efforts were ultimately unsuccessful. Since then both sides have accused the other of bungling those talks.

It'll always be a big fight.

But back then it was THE fight. Undisputed, Unbeaten, US v UK, and a brilliant clash of styles.

Joshua, Wilder and boxing really ****ed up that one. It would have been epic.

Well we know that 50 million was real, considering they gave canelo 40 million to fight plant

RING EXCLUSIVE: OLEKSANDR USYK WANTS WILDER-HELENIUS WINNER IN 2023

“I don’t have many feelings about (Fury and Joshua fighting). I don’t really care if Fury wants to fight somebody. My team is working on getting me back in the ring.

“And no, no, I’m not pissed off at all (about being bypassed by Fury for Joshua). The bigger problem is Tyson Fury is not letting fans see one of the best historical bouts in boxing history. That’s his fault. Not mine. So, I’m not pissed off at all. Tyson Fury can fight whoever he wants to fight.

“From the standpoint of sportsmanship, of course it’s not correct (that Fury fight Joshua instead of him).”

When asked who he would like to fight next, Usyk answered in English, “Deontay Wilder.”

Usyk went on to say, “Wilder is a dangerous fighter, and that fight would most likely be in the United States.”

Usyk said he will most likely be ringside when Wilder, the former WBC titlist, takes on Robert Helenius (31-3, 20 KOs) on October 8, at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y.

A Usyk clash with Wilder (42-2-1, 41 KOs) would be a great contrast in styles, between the scientific Ukrainian southpaw with the magical hands opposed to Wilder’s heavy hands.

F--K Joshua, F--K Ruiz, this is the fight! If Usyk shows up to that fight, and Wilder wins, Wilder MUST bring him up in the ring, and accept this challenge! MAN UP!

Damn! That's cool! I would just love to see that fight. Please let it happen!

[Larry the boss]

Wilder has some great options

[wrecksracer]

The legendary Wilder wants to be the 5th or 6th guy to beat Joshua. He's just waiting for the time to be right. All for the fans!
