Comments Thread For: Wilder: Me vs. Joshua Would Be Bigger Fight Than Canelo-Golovkin

He doesn't need to "call people out", he can respond to the challenges though.

Wilder has said he wants Joshua and/or Parker ASAP. Joshua can tell his manager/promoter - remember THEY work for HIM - to make that fight, if he wants it.

True.. But Wilder had the perfect opportunity to get in the ring and challenge him AJ in front of 90k fans. Fury did it to Wilder In the US.

Instead, Wilder stayed quite when AJ was calling out Fury.. The other commentator on sky had to ask Wilder if he'd like to unify with AJ and Wilder simply responded "that sounds lovely" then he laughed.

I know he wants the fight, or at least he says he does.. But on the 29th in Wembley he seems very reluctant to call him out. He went really quite after the fight.. Which was odd because before the fight he was saying he'd love to get in the ring and call out the winner after the winner is announced.

TBH, I don't think that stepping into the ring, in front of 90 000 fans, in the aftermath of Joshua's victory would have been the wisest of moves!

Wilder has said on a number of occasions that he wants Parker, Joshua, unifications, etc. Joshua and/or Parker should call him on it!

Only if they fight in England, since it nearly guarantees a great live gate thanks to AJ. Wilder would have trouble selling out a high school gym at home for one of his fights.

I think AJ just thinks he’s a joke and doesn’t think of him highly.. Last time AJ mentions his name, he said what everyone is saying.. When is he going to fight someone??.

It’s quite embarrassing when a guy who’s only had 19 fights and been a pro for 3 years tells someone who’s had close to 40 fights to step his opposition up.

And if you watched Sky broadcast you know Wilder didn’t even call out AJ after the fight.. When AJ called out Fury wilder went quite. The other commentator had to ask Wilder if he wants to unify with AJ and wilder simply responded “That sounds lovely” then he laughed.

Before the fight he said he’d love to enter the ring and call out the winner.. but on the night all he did was fist bump him from outside the ring and then went back to commentating.
Now that he’s back in the US he’s calling AJ out saying it boils his blood and that he will KO AJ.. Why couldn’t he have done got in the ring, went face to face with AJ and said that in front of 90k fans? Fury did it to Wilder.

Those face off pics would have went viral because these 2 have never been pictured together. People want to see the size difference between the 2. And that would have been great publicity and made Wilder a lot more popular.. but he chickened out.

Not even close Wilder... Canelo vs GGG would be the bigger fight.
