Comments Thread For: Joshua: If Wilder Will Come Here Next, I'll Knock Him Spark Out!

No doubt, AJ is ready, but Hearn is not ready for Wilder, which is why he's talking about "one more before Wilder!" The question is who? The fact he brought up Bryant Jennings tells me Miller might be too risky! The fact that he's talking about Whyte vs. Povetkin, when Whyte has a mandatory position for Wilder, tells me Povetkin might be too risky too!

I think we should just enjoy the fights as it comes cos we as fans can only express our opinions but we can't make the fight. Promoters does.
Personally, I think wilder promoters are not doing enough, why is everybody putting all the blame on hearn? Can't team wilder come up with a contract proposal?
If you have an idea, clarify me.

Fair enough. Ortiz or Stiverne weren't #2 or #3 in the division. I'll give you that.

Now YOU GIVE ME THIS: Ortiz is A FAR MORE DANGEROUS opponent than Joepsh Parker.

These rankings, and alphabet soup titles mean nothing.

Antohny Joshua would NEVER get in there with Luis Ortiz. NEVER. Hearn would not allow it.

If he looked this badly against Parker, just imagine what Ortiz would do to him! I honestly think Ortiz stops him!

If Joesph Parker was able to neutralize him that badly, Ortiz's style would have him running for DEAR LIFE.

No way Hearn and co. allow Joshua anyone NEAR a fighter with a pulse.

If Deontay Wilder wants to fight AJ, he's going to have to beat him, the bias judges, crooked refs, and 80,000 drunken limey re.tards in the crowd.

But Deontay just might be able to pull it off.

If Ortiz is that good as you highlighted above, why wasn't or isn't he a champ.
Parker was a champ..... So what's your criteria?

Do you think Joshua will "look good" vs. Big Baby in NYC? Do you think Joshua would "look good" vs. Povetkin in Brooklyn? He hasn't looked "good" in his previous 2 fights, and he got dropped by Wlad, who was inactive and a hundred years old. Risky business!!!

Based off last night, I think Povetkin struggles against Joshua. He had trouble finding Price for a lot of the fight, and Price has no defense and always falls apart once punches start flying towards him. I think similar to the issues Povetkin had with Klitschko, style-wise he'd also have problems with Joshua. He just doesn't match up well with big opponents.

Miller is a different fight and one in which I think they both present danger to each other. Miller's not a huge puncher, but he's rugged and active so I think that'd be a good, high-contact fight.

Both those fights are good fights for Joshua for different reasons (provided he wins) Against Povetkin I think he dominates him and likely stops him late. Against Big Baby, I think its a competitive and fun fight that US TV viewers would enjoy.

The Ward fight would be ugly and low contact. Even if AJ wins, his flaws are far more likely to be highlighted in that fight than they are against the other two.

They blame Hearn because Joshua is clearly the A-side! They blame Hearn because Wilder clearly wants Joshua more than Joshua wants Wilder! They blame Hearn because he says things like "maybe Jennings." A-side makes offers, B-side accepts offers! The fight will be made when Hearn decides it will be made!

Now let's hope Miller does his job much better than Joshua did his job!

I understand a contract was offered which was rejected stating 50/50 or no fight. Is that the way B side negotiates?

[Just looking]

"Myth" lol.

You don't win rounds by constantly backing off and not throwing punches through fear of being countered (which happened and almost got Wilder knocked the **** out)

I know boxing fine. You, on the other hand...

I'll make a thread to school you and some others within a week, get ready for lesson
P.S.: If you are landing you are throwing

He wasn't landing. He hardly landed a punch of note up until that 5th round. He was getting comprehensively outboxed.

Anyway, I look forward to your thread. Just make sure you finish your homework first and get plenty of sleep. You are, after all, just a child.

Yes. It takes a little while for Manny to accept he's not on Floyd's level, or for GGG to accept that he's not on Canelo's level, because they feel just as good, but eventually they realize this is business! Wilder will be the same, but he'll fall back! Haymon will let Wilder know what's the best deal he can get, so as long as Hearn and Haymon and Dibella maintain contact with Hearn, all will go well! However, Haymon and DiBella don't have control of Joshua, or when or where the fight will happen! That's all on Hearn!

[Chuckguy]

Wilder dont want it. i would offer him 50/50 to call his bluff if i was AJ and see what happens.
"ohh it cant be in the UK"

Yes it's clear.

With Joshua money is stopping the fight.

With Whyte he says it's not about money but pride.

So what does he decide to do? He wants to fight bitch **** Kownacki where he gets neither money or pride.

Well I’m his interview with the breakfast club he said it’s not about money with AJ. He said he can have 90%. They should use that interview for the negotiations. Give him 35% and see what he says
