    The Biggest Hurdle in AJ - Wilder is Location

    https://www.telegraph.co.uk/boxing/2...der-us-insist/

    This article says Juicin J is ready to turn down $50million if the fight doesn't take place in the UK.

    Eddie Hearn then says "the offer that they made, if that was open to a UK fight, we would have signed immediately."

    So the Juice squad is moving the goalposts once again.

    "Give me $50 million I'll sign tomorrow" he's been offered the amount for weeks and still hasn't signed anything..

    Is it still a PR stunt??

    The Juice brigade love to say Wilder is unknown but if that's the case why is this such a "mega fight"?

    Now they're worried about the venue when money was the only issue originally.

    Vegas is not Wilder's backyard. The guy is from Alabama which might as well be a seperate country entirely lol.

    The Juice Man is trying to weasel out.

    Figured this would happen

    Joshua managed to get Klitchsko to fight in the UK, so now he wants that massive home crowd advantage in all of his dangerous fights. But they goofed, they asked for 50 mil and Wilder's team has delivered. Joshua's gonna have to come to the US, or guarantee Wilder a whole lot of money to go over there. Excellent chess move by Wilder. Home crowd in the US would be huge for this fight.

    Man up Joshua! Or punk out .... your choice.

      I think when AJ said give me 50 million he meant to fight me in the UK. The location is a huge part of making this fight. Aj is the A side and has most of the belts. Wilder should give him his way and fight him in the UK but make sure the ref is not from the UK or any country friendly to the UK like Canada or Australia.Don't worry about the judges because this fight probably won't go to the cards. If Wilder won't fight him in the UK there will be no fight. You can blame AJ all you want be that won't make the fight happen.

          It's not a good look but the good news is Wilder is on record saying he will accept the fight in the UK at 60/40 split for AJ

          Don't think Matchroom wants to open the books though

              Yeah he's sitting right next to the announcers table. One of the announcers leaned over and said he wants to see him and Wilder fight!
              My guess is it will be signed soon.

                  I’m not AJ’s biggest fan, but I respect what he’s done for boxing.

                  But to be honest it does seem like he’s dragging his heels over this fight..
