can we start calling AJ anthony chickenson yet?

[Tom Cruise]

You are acting like AJ is terrified of wilder coming in the ring or something. All he said was he prefers that theres an actual contract signed to fight before wilder steps in the ring. Like it was with klitschko, he never said please keep wilder out of the ring or anything. Wilder can still make his way into the ring if he pleases and make his empty threats.

I agree with the bolded.

I blame boxingscene for needing every headline to be as sensational as possible, and boxingsceners for just going with whatever a headline says

[LacedUp]

give it a rest guy....of course i dont think AJ is scared of wilder.....i never thought golovkin was actually scared of ward either(although he prob is now after ward beat kovalev up)....but promoters are afraid to risk their cash cows against fighters they fear might derail their cash plans ....its thats simple...i realize these guys dont fear each other.....

You're saying he's a chicken. That means something where I'm from.

How is AJs promoter afraid to risk him when he's already fought a guy much better than Wilder? When he's fighting one undefeated opponent after the other, multiple unifications etc etc.

And Wilder.... decided to step up and take his first legit top 10 guy in 40 fights.

[Curt Henning]

oh jesus guys

now im personally attacking AJ like im talking to him directly and attacking his twitter or something? JFC give it a rest....you guys know what i mean by this.....

this is no different than when canelos promoter was putting off the golovkin fight...but didnt stop most around here for calling him a chicken did it? you guys were most likely in on that too......but now look at you getting all defensive....lol

This is a good thing ,it seperates the idiots who dont read before posting .AND exposes dimwitted trolls ......


And believe me theres a big gap in education levels of a certain CULT fanbase i wont mention !

where was the actual contract when golovkin and canelo encountered each other?

it doesnt matter

if AJ has intentions to fight him in the next year then theres no harm in wilder getting the buzz started ASAP

Its funny you bring up Canelo and GGG, because there was 16 months and 2 interim fights in between Canelo initiating the 'face off' after the Khan fight, and him getting in the ring with GGG.

But post fight face offs really matter though...

whats so funny about it? bringing it up made my point...in fact it looks bad on AJ

yeah so where was the harm in it? doesnt appear there was any harm in it.....even if AJ wants to put the fight off why would he be afraid of wilder getting the buzz going ASAP given a great opportunity? unless of course he was worried about the pressure from the public ? that they would demand the fight sooner?

remember how everyone called canelo a chicken for what he did right? is AJ afraid of the same fate?

One year ago Wilder was talking about fighting Parker. Why didn't that happen? Parker came to Alabama to watch Wilder fight.

AJ was fighting Klitschko and then both had mandatories. Literally no one expected the fight to happen.

Wilder announced his fight with Ortiz BEFORE AJ announced the Parker fight.

Yet somehow AJ has been ducking Wilder for years?

Wake up and smell the coffee.

[SkillspayBills]

I like to wait and see what a fighter does first before I accuse him of anything. Remember when people called Ward a COWard because he didn't IMMEDIATELY sign to rematch Kovalev? Then he did and stopped him like the Don that he is? Let's wait and see how things play out first.

[john l]

or do we have to wait till after his fight?

it wont matter if wilder is allowed in the ring...the fights on showtime and showtime will make wilders presence known....wilder will get camera time

meanwhile hearn is petrified and wants to take AJ to hbo

I don't think its premature to call AJ Anthony Chickenson now

Gotta give him till next fight imo.If he signs to fight someone else then its time.
