    Well if he wasn't going to put a rematch clause in for Joshua he sure wasn't going to put in one for himself, because that would have made his already crazy demands even crazier.

    Before Wilder accepted the offer, he wanted a rematch. Now he's turned it down, he still wants one. He also refuses to fight unless he gets half the money. So you two are going to be out in the cold for a while until you come to your senses.

      Of course the BBBoC is corrupt. What commission isn't?

      But AJ specifically has been protected by early stoppages. Whereas in Wilder's last fight, the trolls complained the fight went on too long. Wilder had to knock King Kong down several times to get the stoppage.

      If British ref wasn't an advantage, you wouldn't give up 15 million dollars for it.
      Joshua wants home advantage because he's comfortable fighting at home, not because of any ref. But as I say, you're going to keep saying that to make yourself feel better because you're supposed to twist everything in Wilder's direction. Doesn't make it true though.

      Give me evidence the BBBofC is corrupt?

      In the last 3 fights, Joshua has only had 1 British ref. So try again.

        You don't give up 15 million dollars so you can sleep in your own bed. Nobody has ever given up that much money to fight at home. It's the most expensive referee purchase in history.

          so why did you lie and insist he'd always demanded one even though you knew it wasn't true?

            How would you know? How many multimillion dollar boxing deals have you been involved with?

              I want to see evidence that the bbbofc is corrupt. That's a very very bold claim to make.

              Please provide evidence of bbbofc corruption.

                If you were advising AJ would you have told him to take the offer?

                  I would have advised him to counter with a two fight deal. Fight one in the US under the terms proposed. Fight two in the UK. 50/50 if Wilder won the first fight, 60/40 if Wilder lost the first fight.

                  AJ likely makes over 100 million in two fights in that scenario, with a lucrative rubber match on the horizon coming out of it.

                  AJ can snap an achilles at any moment. Suffer a freak knockout at any moment. It's not his responsibility to be a pawn for the launch of DAZN. He should be fighting a trilogy on US PPV to make as much as possible as quickly as possible.

                      if youre so naive as to not think a hometown ref is an advantage, why spend 15 million for one?

                      refs, judges, doctors, etc are all under incredible pressure to tilt things in favor of what will generate future revenue for the commission.

                      bbboc is no more corrupt than nac. it's the nature of the beast everywhere. as long as commissions make their money from taxing events, there will he an incentive to protect the revenue of future events.
