Comments Thread For: Wilder's Coach: We Want The Joshua Fight, Ball in Joshua's Court

[boxingitis]

Part-time Boxing Champs (PBC/SHO) have all now become waiting game players. The Charlos, Spence, Thurman, Ugas, Ennis, Martin, Ruiz, Wilder etc. They won't even take interim, stay-busy fights. What a bunch of inactive people.

Should be Part-Time Boxing Chumps.

Fury just fought Chisora and spent 3 years fighting the same guy while Joshua just fought the unified champion twice that guy Fury ruined his reputation by running away from the same fight so you might want to think again before you want to discuss this topic with me because I promise you it’ll go south for you real fast more then it is now .

Ha ha ha! So no one is supposed to question your opinion or else “it’ll go south real fast” for them.

The facts are:

• AJ got KO’d by far Ruiz
• AJ got beat by a short cruiserweight Usyk twice

Fury’s trilogy with Wilder was warranted because of how the 1st fight played out plus the drama of the 2nd.
No one is complaining about the 4 PAC-Marquez fights or the Ali-Frazier or Gatti-Ward trilogies. You’re probably the only one having an issue with Fury-Wilder trilogy. Well, plus the Fury haters.

Fury deserves ALL the criticism he’s getting for not fighting Usyk. I have to state that lest you accuse me of being a Fury loyalist.

Who are they kidding. Joshua wants NOTHING to do with Wilder at this point in his career.

[damned1974]

Joshua himself wants his own money fight, which is the domestic blockbuster Fury fight. And according to Hearn, he still needs another tuneup before that happens. Wilder will be waiting forever.

These folks are too scared to take interim fights for fear of getting derailed. It's terrible for the sport.

But part of boxing's problem is fighters take too many interim fights or opponents used as tune ups instead of fighting other guys who are on par or have a legit chance. Boxers these days fight 1-2 times a year-why would we wanna wait so long to see a meaningless fight against a nobody?

I don't know one person who wouldn't tune in to see Wilder vs AJ.

Seriously, Wilder-Fury 3 had amazing drama. One of the best HW fights in recent times and that dude is complaining? WTF?

Even if he did, given his last performance he shouldn't be the fave to win.AJ looked worst than I have ever seen. I think he's either not completely in this sport or he's fading.

Honestly , who gives a fugh about these two
Now that the fight doesn’t mean anything , two washed up guys , who’ve been beaten and we all know are very beatable
No thanks

I know, right?! Just like Gotti vs Ward! Like, what was the point of that BS?!

[landotter]

It would still sell well and be interesting if it happened.

It won't. Not until these guys are Khan-Brook levels of shot and both willing to do it as farewell fight.

[Ry92]

Wilder needs a name and obviously still wants relevanc his team should make a 50/50 offer to AJ & Ngannou 40/60 to Usyk, 60/40 to Zhang, Ruiz even Whyte
