Anthony Joshua's entourage

Lollllllllllllllllllllll

[Pennsauken1]

He just wants that big payday so he can retire. Joshua shouldn't even fight him.

Go get a Dog ASAP!!! Lol

That "intimidated"

I couldn't give a toss about Joshua or whatever you wrote. I stood by my post. Wilder didn't do anything when those names i mentioned were around. He was very quiet, going by facts he was very quiet. Tyson Fury is younger, took a risk and fought Wlad, back by to Wilder country and called him straight out. Wilder was shooked! Thats going by what i saw. Now you could see a different thing and thats cool with me still, but what i saw has already been posted. You can call Joshua name a million times but he is irrelevant to me or my post.

Hey little jappie fanchild, there will always be another dream... ;p

I don't know, Kiwi population is small, you don't have many fighters except Parker.

"Why should Wilder batter a past prime Wlad?"

Because he would have established himself as the dominant force in the division. That's why. If he had done that, it would be AJ chasing Wilder, not the other way around. Wilder would have the bargaining power in the negotiations, not the other way around.

By letting AJ get to Wlad first, Wilder let AJ steal a march on him, and now Joshua has all the greatest momentum and bargaining power in the division. He's a megastar in the UK and arguably more famous in the US than Wilder is himself. Wilder allowed that to happen by not getting to Wlad first... which leads on to my next point.

Trying to argue that Wlad was washed up and would have been destroyed by Wilder only serves to show how poorly managed Wilder's career has been thus far. Whether that's down to a lack of confidence or rank ******ity is anyone's guess.

Right on the cot dayum money.

You're getting a green k for this because I have said the same thing. It's like folks STILL ignore what Shelley Finkel said after Wilder won the WBC title from Stiverne in reference to fighting Wlad. Dude said that Wilder was too green after 33 or so fights, but Hearn was willing to have Joshua fight Wlad after 19 fights. Now AJ is the man in the UK and like you said is bigger in the US than Wilder.

Wilder has not even reached a 2 million dollar purse for any fight and may not do so against Ortiz, yet he expects 14 to 20 million in a potential fight against Joshua and acts like he holds the negotiating advantage. He needs to cut the **** real talk

I think Wilder was surprised by Fury stepping up to him. Not sure if he was shook then, but Fury had been talking about wanting to fight Wilder for a least a year up to that point, before he got that shot against Wlad.

Beyonce should be stripped of that green belt, he is holding it hostage... He had chances to call out and make the fights with Fury, Haye Wlad but chose to duck them all..he is only calling AJ out because he feels he has nothing to lose when he loses, in addition, he divorced his wife that bore him kids for a gold digger which he flaunts on social media. What a prick!

I'm not the biggest AJ fan, and I do think Wilder might have levels that we haven't seen because he hasn't really been in the toughest fights, but

and as for your statement about Wilder wanting "Young Prime comp"

Young prime comp like Ortiz?
Young prime comp like Stiverne?
Young prime comp like Washington?
Young prime comp like Arreola?
Young prime comp like Szpilka?.. Duhap?.. Molina?

Those names are either old, unknown, or known to be terrible. It doesn't look like the resume of a 7 times defending world champion with 39 fights.

Seriously, I've not been posting long here, but I've found myself repeating this, DON'T TRY TO DEFEND WILDER'S RECORD. I don't know who will win between Wilder and AJ, because Wilder could raise his level to a level we've not seen before. I think he's one of those fighters who drops his level to the standard of his opposition sometimes (like Billy Joe Saunders and arguably Tyson Fury do) but if you throw him in there against AJ he might show his true level, which is what makes the fight so interesting.

But just DON'T try to defend his record. His record is s**t, and people who can't see that just look ****** or like they DKSAB imho.

Nobody is trying "defend" his record, so u can name names till youre blue in the face. Joshua has no one of note on his record but u choose not to acknowledge that at all. I'm pretty sure you won't acknowledge the 3 fighters that were on PEDS as Wilder waited and nursed back an injury.......u have great points otherwise concerning Wilders management, but youre still an undercover worshipper of Muscles and his supposed aura.

Wilder fought what was available and even traveled - which is no crime, and even then the better than average comp was CAUGHT using PEDS!......you wont acknowledge this because Wlad seems to be the ONLY measuring stick in your book aside from the fact he was the PAST PRIME hugfest champion...... BOTH Wilder & Joshua had less than stellar comp, but theyre the most dedicated at there sport and are both KO artists - THATS WHY they NEED to fight each other........its that simple. Now u can continue on your one sided hater fueled tirade towards Wilder......

.......one of which Wilder waited on as he nursed back an injury......
