Why didn't Takam have to fight Whyte first to get Joshua?

Lol at the idiot who made this thread ...............

Show us more video footage of you hitting the heavy bag, for some real LOLs.

Why is that only reserved for Deontay Wilder?

Takam was a mandatory you bytches don't know what mandatory is because WBC protection program is protecting Wilder from all good fighters.

If Wilder was reasonable in his demands for Joshua nobody would be talking about Whyte.

If Wilder was serious he'd ask for the same deal as Parker, Joshua then has zero choice to accept or look like a bitch. Won't happen though because Wilder doesn't want the fight.

When you say that Wilder should accept the same deal as Parker, do u mean financially only or was there some sort of other clause involved? I don't really know about what Parker agreed to. Thanks.

Financially. Around 30-35% is more than fair for Wilder.

The fans really don't give much of a **** about Wilder. He is an awful boxer who had to have a lesson in how to jab from Lennox Lewis in a parking lot 5 years ago.

Alot of people believe Whyte would beat him.

I honestly don't think that many people would pick Whyte to beat Wilder. I am betting that if they picked 20 experts, 18 or so would pick Wilder.

30 to 35 % would be like triple Wilder's previous biggest payday, so yeah, not an unreasonable request from AJ's side. I also like Wilder saying he will take whatever as long as AJ takes the same deal if he loses.

What happened to all the PBC fans who were all for "marinating" fights? I have no reason to doubt that AJ and Wilder will fight sometime in 2019. I don't see why that is a problem. I still think AJ should come to the U.S. and fight Miller and Wilder go to U.K. and fight Whyte. Neither of them are going to lose to those shlubs, and all it can do is boost some overseas exposure for each fighter that makes their fight an even bigger event.

Same people pushing AJ to fight Wilder after 20 fights are the same ones who gave Gervonta and his 20 fights a pass when he ducked Loma. He was a champion too, so why the double standard? I don't want to hear the age excuse either.

One thing you have to consider, if Parker pulls off an upset, there will likely be a rematch between AJ and Parker this year. Not sure if there is a rematch clause for AJ/Parker but I'm sure it would be exercised.

Takam was a replacement for a mandatory, and the reason wilder is being pushed to UK audiences first before fighting AJ is because he brings something, but not many people in the UK know him. They're exposing him to UK audiences and building up the AJ Wilder showdown, which is the only big hw fight left.


If the fan boys of both fighters stopped being morons and blaming the other guy, it's obvious why wilder Whyte makes so much sense.

Bob Arum is the one who actually coined the term.

Who cares? Bob, Haymon, Oscar. Point is, a certain undefeated fighter boasted of marinating a big fight for five years and his fans were ok with that. Why all the impatience and double standards now?
