Comments Thread For: Joshua: First Wilder Fight Has To Be in The UK, I Call That Shot

[LetOutTheCage]

We can easily see he doesn’t want this fight.

Why because he said he wanted to fight Wilder in the UK?

Wilder is more than willing to fight in the UK but it's going to be Povetkin. You can tell in Hearn and Joshua's tone, they are looking for every way to make negotiations with Wilder tough. They don't want this fight anytime soon.

Talking about fighting in the UK, isn't that where the fight should be? Lol.

I think wilder should accept the terms, go to the UK and prove to us that he is the best.
After all he came out to tell us he is not doing it for the money.
Team wilder go sign that fccking contract and let's get it rolling.

100%.

Joshua's team will simply just walk away from the negotiation table without even giving Wilder a counter offer like last time. Funny but irritating at the same time.

Joshua's smile turned to frown when Wilder's name was mentioned after the Parker fight. They don't want it!

If team wilder really wants to be undisputed champion, let them just take the fight and prove to the fans that they are the best.
If financial split doesn't bother team wilder, why do they end up at stake mate?

I'm all for wilder goin to the U.K. just to KO aj in front of all those people. Big statement KO then bring them belts to sweet home alabama. Then offer aj the same exact deal in return or even less since he won't have any belts to negotiate with ��

Now you think you are wise... These are part of the reasons the fight has not been signed.
If you are a promoter, you can never make a single fight.

I actually prefer the fight to be in the UK better atmosphere than vegas but they will lose American PPV money having a super fight in the afternoon

Yeah it's great when Eddie hearns referee completely ruins the fight like the last 2 aj fights. Not

[Akutalee]

I don’t see why wilder won’t accept this fight even if you get 30% is still 7x times your biggest pay day

Why is it still being brought up?! Maybe AJ wants Wilder to REALLY think about it in depth to perhaps frustrate him, to maybe have him overthink it to the point where he'll be like,"come to think of it, why am giving in on that demand, who does he think I am tellin' me......," so that Wilder would be blamed for backing out of the contest.....

But it aint gonna work. Wilder said eons ago that he'd fight AJ in his own bkyd - no problem! The next redundant thing Team Hearn is gonna bring up is: "Wilder will get less than 50% of total earnings, it bloody well cannot be 50/50!"...To that Team Wilder will reply,"duuuh!"....."thats already been discussed, so long as I get more than Parker - understandably."

This rehashing proves that Team-Hearn was far less interested in the fight than theyre now forced not to be. And was only posturing for the AJ Groupie Muscle Huggers to scream foul on ANYTHING Team-Wilder agreed or disagreed on.

Hopefully Team-Hearn will agree to Olympic Style stringent RANDOM blood testing to make sure Joshuas HUGE muscles and blood are fueled by oxygen, a good diet and NOT PEDs of any sort! This is VERY important for a fight of this magnitude! Team Hearn should be MORE THAN HAPPY to oblige!

The EVENT with a former gold medalist PED-FREE (hopefully) champ who bravely earned FOUR championship belts to his name - who ironically happens to be scared stiff of leaving his place of comfort to fight a stick! - should still turn out to be that invigorating PED-FREE event for both sides of the PED-FREE pond to watch!!

I don't think AJs carry on luggage full off peds will get through customs. That's the real reason he wants it in the UK.

And it will be much harder for him to fudge the drug testing over there. well

All the fights should be in the UK. Fights in the US are judged and reffed by yanks. And when wilder gets buzzed he gets 20 seconds extra recovery at the start of the next round. Why would the hw money maker want to risk his belts against that sort of bias?

[Jkp]

He's a troll, Wilder has stated that the 50/50 will not stop the fight from happening, this guy bokfan is still arguing that, this is why the fight shouldnt happen.......now its about Wilder not going to his (aj) home to fight, when he's already stated he will..........this guy willfully ignores facts stated......and argues false facts. He's not worth debating ANYTHING related to boxing.

Aj fan boys can not be argued with. They make no sense and constantly ignore facts.

[The Westerner]

We can easily see he doesn’t want this fight.

my friend i see otherwise
