    Just accept it dude.
    Unlike the millions of fans around the world and most of this site, I'm one of the FEW that think both AJ and Wilder are not that good. I had Wilder losing on the cards to Ortiz at the time of the stoppage and I had picked Ortiz to win. I felt that Ortiz would have ko'd Joshua and his claim to fame is beating a 40 year old fighter that Fury had done a year prior. So I'm not high on either fighter but I believe that Joshua feared Wilder and Ortiz. The biggest name on Joshua's resume is a 40 year old Wlad. The biggest name on wilder is a Ortiz who was better than Wlad at that point in his career.

      Laced come on. AJ was talking about Povetkin and didn't seem like he was willing to make a deal.

      He is the champ now. Of course when he was the challenger he was willing to fight wlad for the title. It's different now and you know it. He and Hearn are trying to monetize the belt as they should. As such, he will move differently.

            True he had the IBF belt. My bad.I will re word it.

            He is the man in the division now. Of course when wlad and fury were above him, he was willing to fight wlad for the titles Fury vacated.

            It's different now and you know it. He and Hearn are trying to monetize the belt as they should. As such, he will move differently

              He was the champion when he fought Wlad as well He was only gaining a vacant WBA.

              They are monetizing every fight, that comes with being the money man. AJ has overpaid everyone he's ever fought, and the same goes with Wilder - If you look at how much they are generating on their own or against anyone else in the division.

              There's no difference here,.

                I think a two fight thing is great, but how is the two fights structured? Would Wilder get a second fight if he loses to AJ in a controversial decision? Am sure AJ would get a rematch if he gets KO. Would the second fight have to happen in america? Lots of questions and hopefully we would get our answers shortly.

                  Can't wait! I wouldn't be too surprised if either (1) they each have a fight before the big showdown, or (2) they wait until November to have the big showdown so that the public is properly hyped and Clenelo's fight is well in the rear-view mirror. Either way...

                      Wilder will be sent a contract this week according to Hearn who is mentioning pushing it to October or November.
                      It's happening ladies and gentlemen How silly all of you who thought it wasn't going to happen.
