Wait a minute, did Deontay Wilder DUCK ZHANG?

[Atypicalbrit]

Because that was the fight the Saudis wanted not Parker vs Zhang.

It's a shame the Saudis are too classy to ever come out and say it but you bet your ass Wilder ducked Zhang.

That's Wlad, AJ and Zhang Wilder has ducked.

This man is TERRIFIED of anyone with power.

[MulaKO]

You kidding
You really wanna see that fight ?
I’d rather he goes away
He can take Fury and AJ with him
There goes all the drama and we can get fights

[Teetotaler69]

Of course he did! Emperor Zhang has them tremble as he approaches the ring! Windmill with his chicken legs would collapse before it starts!

[HeadShots]

Deontay Wilder fought only 2 legit threats his entire career and he went 0-3-1. realistically 0-4


complete hype job.

[jqSide]

He probably did. His manager Finkel was saying Wilder vs Zhang could rival Joshua vs Ngannou. He could be suggesting they should get paid the same amount as AJ/Ngannou. Otherwise, ain't happening.

[dan-b]

I don't see it as a duck at this point. I think there's a serious question about whether he wants to fight again.

[JakeTheBoxer]

Nothing strange. he is 0-4 in his big fights.

[daggum]

Just couldn't get around to fighting Zhang, Gerald Washington sure but not zhang

[juggernaut666]

Well you can’t duck anything that’s not officially trying to get made or a fight lined up that is needed or a rejected order to fight by sanctions Or ducking a unification / undisputed etc…..it’s definitely a case of avoiding though and going a different direction. That’s like saying Whyte ducked Wallin to go fight Fury etc……Wilder or Malik probably want an easier opponent and they better take them for now and hope Joshua will once again be a charity case and offer him a fight down the line .

[N/A]

There were just talks about a potential bout, but nothing official, right? Wilder has more to lose if he doesn't face top opponents for the rest of his career - even more if he does and loses against all of them. He and Zhang would have been nice, but Joe and Zhang are better.
