Comments Thread For: Wilder: Joshua is Scared To Fight Me, I'm His Biggest Threat!

The #1 threat to both Wilder and AJ is Fury.

LMAO at these peons fighting over his scraps. The king is back and they will have nowhere to hide.

For all his skill, Fury is 12-18 months and 3 or more tune-up bouts away from being relevant to the discussion. At the moment he's a severely overweight and under-conditioned mess with big question marks over his mental strength and desire to even be there.

Whatever Wilder's flaws he's accurate in portraying himself as the biggest threat to AJ's domination of the division.

The way Wildier is talking makes it seem like inside he's scared and he's trying to sike him self up. However I am thinking AJ is scared cuz he's not really pushing for the fight. Either way this will be an big big fight if marketed right. All Americans like an heavyweight fight. Both undefeated. For all the belts? Wow just wow. The winner will be an huge world star. Something we havnt seen since Tyson. Don't give me Lennox he was hated and f Rid****. Holyfield Nahhh.

AJ has mandatories to fight first why would he push a fight that can't happen asap

Ummm..flawed logic mate, why avoid easy money with a grade C fighter which was twice as much $$$ he would earn fighting bum Stiverne? Wilder fan girls should use their brains, your girl Wilder is a bum!

Because he wants to prove he's the best and put on decent match ups for the fans.

He's not all about making as much money as possible from gullible uk fan boys like AJ.

A Parker fan calling someone else a hype-job????

Irony overload.

I don't see any irony. Parker is underrated under hyped. Most people don't even know who he is.

Joshua likes to compare his sport to tennis, car racing, golf and all other non-violent sports - I've never even heard him compare it to MMA.....Wilder got it right, this is a gladiator combat "sport," thats only comparable to anything violent.

Everyone likes to criticize the skinny bird-legged one, and minimize everything he's accomplished, yet they praise their muscular Adonis body idol thats physically bigger & intimidating enough to eradicate all the sub par competition thats come his way....

All the Joshua worshippers focus only on the financial aspect of things just like Hearn & Co., They also tend to ignore Hearn only wanted to bargain for a Whyte fight, which is beside the point of having the two BEST in the division getting it on.....

Hopefully Joshua the "athlete" has trained his mind not to be fearful even if he is, because the insignificant 220lb bird legged one wants him whether his worshippers believe it or not......they can continue to seek joy in the criticism of Wilder - of all he is, does, did, etc,......but the FACT remains he'll be the very BEST Joshua has EVER shared the ring with.....Joshua IS probably scared.....

Wilder: Joshua is Scared To Fight Me, I'm His Biggest Threat! Yes and for very good reason. Wilder just so happens to be the most dangerous puncher in the Heavyweight division.

Hell, I'll even be afraid of challenging him this soon in my championship reign. I'll rather challenge Tyson Fury any day before even considering challenging someone of the likes and caliber of Deontay Wilder because he is not that huge of a puncher or hard to find and has a glass jaw.

I think I've seen this song and dance a few hundred times already.

Parker and Joshua have taken over the HW headlines, and this clown will say anything to stay relevant.

This is what Wilder fans completely and utterly fail to see.

Wilder's callouts have consisted of saying he wanted to fight AJ, while he KNEW AJ had Klitchko plus mandatory fights to deal with.

And Wilder's callout of Parker consisted of wanting to put together a unification fight on 6 weeks notice, when Hughie pulled out first time. Yeah ****ing right.

The only thing more ridiculous and ****** than Wilder's fake callouts, is the people who believe him.

He’s next fight is not an manadatory unless I am bugging

You're lying. AJ & Wilder fought a week apart late last year. When Wilder won, he called out AJ. AJ had no mandatories due, no rematch obligations, no anything.

Wilder called out AJ while AJ was definitely available.

Wilder vs. AJ isn't happening in March because Eddie Hearn is a very smart business man and he knows it's a terrible idea to do the riskiest fight first when you can just do it last and it'll be worth even more later in the year than it would have been earlier in the year.
