Comments Thread For: Froch: I Just Don't Understand Why Joshua Disregards Wilder

[1hourRun]

Sky Sports is not a Second Rate Platform.They will soon be owned by a American Giant in Comcast or Disney.Even Floyd Mayweather gave Sky Props other than Showtime, Sky got him the most Broadcasting Money.Even though essentially it was pennies on top

This is great news, maybe they will eliminate all the local local bums fights they put on and improve the quality of their content by hosting world-level events, maybe then they will be on a level of Showtime/CBS.

Froch is so jealous of Joshua he can't contain himself lol. Froch was a great fighter, but never made even close to the money that Joshua has already. Jealousy is not a good look for him though.

Totally forgot AJ only has 20 fights under his belt, no wonder why they are going to duck DW.

The fight will happen in 2019. Wilder will fight whyte next. Joshua will fight pulev or David price (if he beats povetkin) and then in April or may it'll be Joshua and wilder in Vegas or Wembley and Joshua will murder him.

I was with Froch all the way up until that last bit...the only thing that takes the pressure of A Juicing J is signing the damn contract.

I'm a JOSHUA fan but fear is fear!!! He wants no parts of the other champion WILDER!

1. Based on this quote, it seems that Froch is saying disregards him as someone he needs to fight now.

"I don't really understand why 'Josh' just disregards him, he seems to be happy to keep him waiting. Wilder is the one. The one we want to see him in with and the fight he needs to win,"

2. Takam was not a mandatory. He was a short notice replacement. I believe Joshua gets credit for fighting a mando though.

3. Most real fans are carrying on like they want to see Joshua Wilder next and they are unsatisfied with Hearn and Joshua making statements that amount to [we want it, just not in the foreseeable future. we'll let you know when the time is right].

Back to point number 2 takam satisfied his manadatory requirement. So he may not have been the mandatory challenger pulev was but the takam fight was seen as a mandatory as he doesn’t have to make another defence for a year.

3. Who do you know who has back to back unification fights. To me it’s not realistic to expect 3 out of his last 4 fights to be unifications but we will see. The way I see it is the window for them to fight has been small, this is the first fight he could’ve fought wilder Realistically. I’m expecting the wba mandatory to be next but after that it should be wilder. Aj has constantly said wilder and I believe him. He’s done more in 20 fights than most fighters have done in their careers.

Only a ****** American would care about comparing two completely different Buisnesss.CBS/Showtime operate in America and Sky operate in Europe and the most money being made in the UK.They have no correlation.In terms of Boxing, HBO would be the top, Showtime are only relevant because of Mayweather signing.

When Froch did fight the best in Andre Ward....you see what happened...Anytime he hears the 2 words Andre Ward he goes into mental mode.He got humbled and outclassed by Andre and couldnt bear a rematch.Joshua is being much more cuter with Wilder.Facing him at the right time...
