Comments Thread For: Alexander Povetkin Expects To Fight Anthony Joshua in The Fall

[Redgloveman]

Wilder has been sent an offer apparently; so I hope he just accepts it and the fight gets made.

People are acting like the Povetkin fight has already been signed, but Wilder can sign first.

Question andwered please guys....if Pov is WBA & WBO mandatory, and AJ only just won WBO belt, how does it work with his voluntary's? Does he take his Mandatory now immediately then get 2 voluntary's? Cheers for any feedback !

Depends on the money that all involved could make. No other answer is necessary.

Hearn said AJ would KO wilder in 3rds! AJ says he's willing to go to Brooklyn to face Miller.. but not Wilder.. an not for 50mill plus.. Wilder will take that fool's soul like Shang Tsung!

once you hear AJ, you begin to **********. Is that how addicted you are?

Povetkin was Rioded to the gills when Wilder was his opponent.. an Wilder was on his way to Russia to decapitate that fool. I hope AJ loses so we can atleast get these belts off of Povetkin.. rioded or not.. he too will be destroyed!!! But, Atleast he was brave enough to try to fight Wilder.. but not princess AJ! Mr. I won't leave my familiar hospital staff and ringside doctors! An I do it for my fans.. unless its big baby.. then he will travel to the U.S.. lmao. Miller will stop you too AJ!

Wilder can never be an A side to any top boxer. Haymon can't even secure him a bid to bring potvedkin to the US.

Superman AJ is scared of Doomsday Wilder! AJ is a coward.. and his ******** hangs like coochie lips! Lol

I almost choked from laughing after reading this comment.

Musta been the plan all along.

If Joshua's next two opponents are Povetkin and Wilder then I think that's pretty good. But we saw Ortiz nearly upset Wilder last round, every time they postpone it they run the risk of ruining it with a loss. Even if Wilder took a shock loss, then Joshua too would watch his 50 mil grow wings and fly out the window.

"The fight appears to be unlikely, as Wilder offered a guarantee of $50 million for Joshua to take the fight in the United States - and Joshua is willing to take less because he wants the contest to take place in the UK. Povetkin is paying no attention to the Wilder negotiations because he expects to be next."

I expected the same thing, as soon as AJ didn't accept the $50 million dollar offer, WHICH HE ASKED FOR:

April 12, 2018:

Wilder has stated in several interviews that he'll take a 60-40 split in Joshua's favor.

According to Joshua, if Wilder and his handlers truly believes the contest is worth $100 million - then they should make him a counter-offer for $50 million and the deal will get made immediately.

"If it is a $100 million fight and they are happy with taking 60-40, I'll take 50-50. Give me $50 million dollars up front and I swear I'll take that fight tomorrow," Joshua told Sky Sports.

the risk of AJ losing is there just as much as there is a risk for wilder

probably much less for wilder if he fights dominic and AJ fights povetkin....id say povetkin is a bit more dangerous

and lets not forget....many like to walk around and say "we saw Ortiz nearly upset wilder"....but wilder never left his feet...weve seen AJ hit the deck and look gassed as hell......wilder didn't have to get up against Ortiz and has great stamina
