Legacy plan!?? Fighting one dimensional Jarrell 'Plodder Pillow' Miller(??!) or 38yr old PEDvetkin who'll be 39 by the time they meet?!. "LEGACY" is Wilder NEXT! Wilder will be 33 in October, he's in his prime NOW, "legacy" means both fighters going at it in their primes NOW!
AJ has "numbers" already, after he beats Wilder he can continue "planning another eight years at the top." The "numbers" will take care of themselves, the cash will continue to flow - because he's worshipped out there!
AJ is GUARANTEED his 50"numbers" so please stop the EXCUSES! This DUCKING was ALWAYS the case from Barry when on youtube (concerning AJ after his 8th fight) he said, "you may want to DUCK Deontay Wilder for a little while - he's strong".....How long is "a little while???"
Daddy & Son have been on the same page ever since, theyre just coming from different angles with the NEW version of excuses.......AJs ALREADY EXTREMELY RICH, its just that his managment team is SCARED to death he'll lose the fight (AND their GREEDY EXTRA money). That mssg is bolstered loud & CLEAR each & every time they speak.......Oh yes, they'll have a "legacy" alright, it just won't be the one they were hoping for.....The ROBOT, with his 4 belts, is officially AVOIDING the most challenging fight of his career! .....LEGACY plan?!?!

Joshua is my boy and all but this 50 million debacle is because of his big mouth. Now you coming out and saying you will not sell your soul for 50 million sounds even more ******. Wilderlites were wondering why Joshua doesn’t talk more it’s for that reason. Now no debating he has to hold a big L for that. Now does he give away all the leverage he has worked for for the last 3 years all because he had diarrhoea in the mouth? Absolutely not. I’m not going to sit here and front .Home advantage is imperative for Joshua than it is Wilder.
Finally if Wilder was to fight Breazeale or his team advised him to fight Joshua in a year I will be up in arms .Now all of a sudden we are accepting it like it’s probably for the best. That is a cowards move of the highest order. No side stepping. We fight this year, end of. Smh

Originally posted by SteveM View PostIt was said with irony amigo. There is no doubt in my mind that any athlete over 30 is no longer in his prime. So I am thinking the same for Wilder as Golovkin - both are no longer in their absolute prime on a purely chronological measure and in Golovkin's case you can see it visually as he was sharper 3-4 years ago.
Now for the aging part, the prime doesn’t really decline until 36 if you’re fit. It’s crazy because it just disappears. But you don’t really get the full blown man strength until 34. Wilder will just keep getting better & AJ has shown that he’s reached his peak, which is no ordinary peak.
2, 3 fights ago, & I’m a Wilder fan, AJ would have beaten Wilder. Now & even 3 years from now, Wilder will seriously hurt him. Wilder has disturbing power & the technique is finally starting to season.
Just my opinion. No shame in being a little apprehensive to fight a guy who had a 100% KO ratio for 30+ fights.
Unless it’s for $50 million

So the Americans where right all along as Hearn and AJ are clearly ducking and turning town 3 × more money then hes ever made and a chance to become undisputed heavyweight champ.

I gotta hear the announcement for Povetkin be AJ before I completely make my judgement but this don't look like it's happening this year. I feel like GGG should have stuck with the Canelo fight and took the money. I also feel like AJ should take the 50 million that's too much to turn down for whatever reason. In boxing all it takes is one punch to send you back into rebuild mode!! I figure AJ is gonna fight Povetkin, maybe Miller or Whyte after that and then Tyson Fury sometime next year!! Good luck with that run!!
