    I’m sayin, if Joshua gets 21 mil for fighting a bum, he’d want more for fighting a legit contender. I️ def want to see wilder Joshua, but i get the $ aspect. Whyte would clearly be a blowout, he’s an inside fighter who’s much shorter than wilder and open to the right hand. Easy fight. 20 mil for wilder would be nice but that $ has got to come from somewhere. If they can double those wembley ticket prices then we got a shot but I don’t think anyone should underestimate the $ perspective

      You already have...Hearn is a sleazebag like most promoters but he is a shrewd businessman. I dont for one second believe he would try to make a fight with Fury over a fight with Wilder and Parker first.

        Wilder should go to England and blow out Whyte then call AJ out again in the same manner he did after Stiverne. Imagine him doing that in AJ's home country. He's putting the pressure on AJ to make the fight now but if he did that man AJ would have to take the fight. They dont need to marinate this because either way these guys could always rematch. Maybe even have a trilogy. Lets see who the best is!

          Incorrect. I'm not a fan of either. I've defended Wilder more recently because he gets unfairly bashed more often. I've also spoken up for AJ but seeing as how he's being overhyped most of the time, there's rarely need to speak in his favor.

          Look, you're big into AJ and you seem to want to suppress anything that favors Wilder. That's the road I'm not going to waste anymore time going down. I respect you as a poster but don't go down the mlac route.

            Yup I am an AJ fan and yes he is being overhyped but your being disingenuous to say I want to supress anything that favours Wilder. When someone says or suggests that Joshua is ducking Wilder (after he fought like 2 weeks ago) then I will call them out on it.

            I have seen a number of your posts favouring Wilder which is fine but your certainly not coming across as neutral based on the recent posts I have seen, you freely attack some of the AJ fans yet go very quiet when outlandish comments are made by the Wilder fanboys.

            I make it clear I prefer one fighter over the other, if your truly neutral then criticise both sides as neither is perfect

              It's England. Where fighting 42 year old guys coming off of a loss and two year layoff is a great win. Why wouldn't fighting an obese drug addict who hasn't fought in years be a great fight as well?

                That's incorrect again. I've said repeatedly that I favor AJ in that potential fight.
                Back to what I was saying though, it seems you're ok spending all day on here defending AJ. I'm not interesting in wasting that much time on either of these guts so I'll respectfully let you get in the last word or whatever. I like many of your posts, I just don't think you're going to see the AJ/Wilder thing in a fair light, ever. And, that's ok.

                  Wilders legs are fine. Plenty of fighter with chicken legs had scary power. It’s all about knowing how to use it.

                    Am actually shocked that Froch kept it 100. Reason why I said that is because he works for sky, if this was an American ex-boxer would he same the same if he works for HBO or showtime?
