    So what happens if AJ destroys Povetkin in December and destroys Miller in December in sold out NY whilst Wilder beats Brezeale in the same time frame?

    Is he still not the A side? He would have taken out almost everybody in the damn division.

      yeah except that the ones accepting terms and not signing a contract came from Finkel and Wilder

        There's a clear as day A side in this negotiation which even Wilder himself has said.

            That was the problem though, Wilder said he would give 50m but from what I understand didnt provide a contract giving any details.

            Ultimately both parties should be held responsible for the fight not happening now.

                Golovkin chased Sergio Martinez and then Cotto for ages back in the day to no avail.

                  Its not something to think about , its a FACT .

                  Wilder is the only fighter in history to not only walk away from over 7x his highest pay but also a guaranteed rematch in HIS backyard for 50% worth 50 Million if he won .


                  Thats beyond uncooperative thats a flat out refusal to fight AND he agreed to the contract which also makes him a liar in public .

                    Man you don't even have to get paid that much.
                    A shot at the titles to become the king in the division is all you need.
                    So he's been lying all along when he said he wants the fight.

                      Both sides are responsible for the fight not happening. Not sure why there is so much blind loyalty from the "fans" of both sides. Neither camp is being fully transparent or entirely forthcoming.
