Surely Wilder vs AJ can happen now?

I still want to watch it but I'm very resentful that they couldn't give us this fight about 4 or 5 years ago when it mattered.

they being wilder who turned down 100 million not to mention turning down 15 million when his career high was 2 millino before that

[WTFNOOO]

That was literally an 8 rounder on an undercard.

Correct and Joshua has only fought Jake Paul since.

Both are old and past their best. One of them is in their 40s and the other recently was involved in a deadly auto collision. I hold nothing against either of them if this fight does not happen now.
I do hold something against them for not fighting between 2015-2022. I would have favored Wilder for the initial part of that timeline, but AJ for anytime after Fury III.

ah you mean when wilder turned down 100 million because he thought the fight was worth more according to him? or before that when he turned down 15 million when his career high payday was 2 because it was a lowball according to him? or how about when joshua signed to fight him but wilder lost to parker and lost the fight. false equivalency alert! one guy didnt want it. one guy. stop spreading teh blame. oh wait the 50 million wilder offered joshua! oh yeah and when joshua said send the contract lets see it....he ghosted! what more evidence do you need like honestly? its like saying trum-p is ant-war or not a grap-ist or something. reality is reality

WHOA, reel yourself in there. I didn't say I blamed them equally- just that I blame them. Really, I don't pay that much attention to negotiations, nor am I one who is beholden to certain promotions to state that one fighter caused something not to happen or not (I just evaluate based on what I see in the ring).

Kinda funny that based on what I wrote you called me out for false equivalency, and then went on that tirade.

ill put a little wager on joshua if it happens

[Elastic Recoilz]

wilder appears to be chit scared of AJ, he gets instantly defensive at the sight or mere mention of his name. Funny thing is if they fought I could see wilder clipping AJ in a wild exchange and getting him out of there - similar to how Ruiz caught AJ when they were swinging it out.

Remembered the name of the guy Joshua was all set to fight when he instead sold out to the Jake Paul farce - Cassius Chaney.

Chaney is a 38 year old American and at the time, his unexciting record read 23-4. Having missed out on the Joshua fight, Chaney had a fight in January and got handed a KO loss.

i would look forward to that battle actually, its a case of better late than never after wilder actually threw some shots v chisora
