Comments Thread For: Hearn: Joshua Wants Wilder; Don't Question Integrity, Desire!

[What up]

What an utter load of crap that Hearn talks

[sportbuddha]

They both fought the same caliber of opposition. Wilders got 20 more on his resume' and is the reason why Hearn Sr and Hearn Jr really didn't want the "experienced" Wilder just yet.

Senior is on record advising Joshua to "duck" Wilder because "he's strong"....... As huge & young as Joshua is: whats so surprising with him beating smaller inactive carpet cleaners with one 41yr old chronic hugger coming off an embarrassing loss 2yrs before?!? Parker see content just being in the ring.

The skinny 200lb Wilder wins are far more impressive because he "looks" like he shouldnt be able to get the job done! Greedy Hearn got a whole lotta nerve criticizing the kid while encouraging his robot to beat on a 39yr old opponent that was already beaten by Wlad almost like Fury froze a stunned Wlad on a lopsided points win.

Hearn knows full well Joshua isnt in charge of anything......only bulking up in the gym and making his master plenty of dough. Joshuas brain doesnt have an original thought coming from it, thats why his designated cue is to talk once a month summarizing what Hearn has already stated in several practiced interviews......very soon Joshua will come with the "very very frustratiing" excuse at his next interview....

Finally it’s official, you no FA about boxing. Same calibre opponents? Idiot

More Hearn poppykock.

He talks about integrity they wouldn't know what the word means

Wilder has posted a video on instagram with nelson & AJ.
AJ makes it clear that hes happy to duck Wilder for 2..3 years if need be ��

Joshua does have the better resume but Wilder fought 2 top 10 Heavyweights.

The 1st fight against Stiverne and the recent Luis Ortiz fight.

Stiverne was decent the first time around but certainly not the second.

Joshua does not have a win that is better than wilder's Ortiz win. Klitschko already had been knocked out a few times and fury made him look like an amateur. What other fight makes Joshua resume so great? I'll wait.

Welcome to the world of Wilder fans, where Luis Ortiz is a better win than Wladamir Klitschko.

Amazing. Couldn’t make it up.

And Wlad was in his 40s, coming off a very long layoff, after a humiliating defeat where he looked horrible.

Still ballsy to fight him at that point in AJ's career, but let's be honest, AJ went life and death with an old, rusty Wlad who hadn't looked good in years.

Incredible analysis you’ve convinced yourself of there.

Or, Joshua beat the dominant champion, ATG HW of this era, when Wladamir put on one of his best performances of the past few years.

Wilder went life and death and was almost stopped (ref should have stopped it) against a fat, unproven HW with a heart condition, who had also been inactive, and who had never even boxed for a world title, let alone held one.

AJ has never faced a consensus top 4 heavyweight. Wladimir was a great commercial win, but after 18 months out of the ring, and a humiliating defeat before the lay off where he looked like he had nothing left, many had Wladimir unranked due to the inactivity.

Wilder on the other hand dominated Stiverne when Stiverne was rated #2 or #3 by all the most respected rankings. When Wilder knocked out Ortiz, most had Ortiz #4 in the world.

It's rewriting history to claim when AJ fought Parker, Whyte, Breazeale etc that they were as highly regarded as Stiverne and Ortiz were when Wilder fought them.

Facts are facts. Go check Ring, ESPN, IBO, TBRB, Boxrec etc. UK fans try to rewrite history to ignore how highly regarded Stiverne and Ortiz were when Wilder beat them and they rewrite history to make Wladimir, Parker, Whyte etc more highly regarded than they were when AJ beat them.

Okay Stiverne was pretty good the first time around I'll give him that but still AJ has the better resume by far. Wladdy looked better in that fight with AJ than he had in years. Cus D Mato said great old fighters are always capable of one last great superfight. This of course was true.

Why should the ref have stopped it when Wilder showed he was fit to continue as the result of the fight shows

All you've done there is cast doubt over AJs ref stoppages
