Comments Thread For: Joshua: If Wilder Fight Doesn't Happen, I'll Happily Fight Fury

[Nusky]

Why would he sign a contract to fight Joshua before he beats Povetkin? If Joshua loses to Povetkin, Wilder won't GAF about Joshua after that.

You're making too much sense for these sheep. You have to Speak slowly and sign it out simultaneously.

Being that AJ is scared sh#tless to fight WILDER let's get FURY to fight WILDER.

I'd love to see it but Fury needs at least 3 more fights (while ratcheting up the level of competition each fight) before he's even close to ready to fight wilder.

Thats what Brits want as a champion, says alot about them and him. There is a chance to claim ALL THE BELTS,
He's been making excuses for reasons NOT to fight him. Facts speak for themselves. He's admitted that his 50 mil ploy was BS. And his fans are still believing his BS. Him/Promoter is trying to delay, but we as americans have seen these ploys before. Hearn is using an old trick on them, they dont know any better. ******ed people dont know they're ******ed

interesting comment..im curious as to how many punches klitschko landed on him considering he was all the conquering heavyweight at the time. u may not like fury's style or are envious of his clear physical advantages but regardless hes a skillful boxer who remained undefeated and despite getting no credit for dethroning the king history cant be changed and it was indeed the gypsy king who did it..so saying he was never a great boxer just makes u look really really silly

Klitschko was 3 years past his prime against him and should have retired long ago. Extremely accomplished HW but truly hasn’t been competitive for a number of years. To answer your question he landed far less and it was because of Fury he was long past his prime. A prime Klitschko knocks Fury silly and kos him within 5 and you’d never hear the name Fury again

Enough of this contract bull****e. Let me give to you one of the more educated quotes on this site.

“No champion (with a belt) should sign a completely one-sided contract for a championship fight. Nor should they sign a contract with pertinent info left out (re: date of event; location of event).

A-side/B-side nonsense don't matter. A championship fight that is gonna draw world attention should be fair and equitable to both fighters - period. The AJ/Hearn nonsense was none of that ... it really is mindless for anyone to insist that a champion fighter should accept any old contract with any kind of blatant unfair and demeaning conditions in it. If a fighter CHOOSES to sign it (for their own reasons) okay, fine ... he signed a bad deal (knowingly by choice). But, if they choose to pass honestly we should all applaud. As fans we should want championship fights to be good deals for the fighters. No fan should be mouthing about a fighters skill, heart, or desire based on said fighter not signing a bullsheet contract. That would be a fan-girl talking. Not a fan, nor an educated adult.

As educated adults, and fight fans, we should want every fighter to get a fair contract, based on the risks and inevitable damage fighters suffer doing their craft.

I'm not anti-AJ or anyone else. But BS is BS. I never remember an opponent of Ali bringing a stinking contract to the public's attention as a complaint. They must have gotten a "reasonable" and decent contract for the time. That's called respecting your opponent, your trade, and ultimately yourself. Particularly in highly anticipated world event types of fights.

BS is BS ... all fans should call it like it is, no matter who you like. Only kids and ignorant people wear blinders when it comes to business (and "root" for their favs regardless) Fight fans want everyone to win and be well in the BUSINESS of the fight.”

Stop just copying and pasting this dribble on every article where WIlder/AJ is mentioned.... It is outlining how automated Wilders fans are that they just post the same useless response over and over.

It's not uncommon to sign a fight before the fight you currently have scheduled. You sign the fight on the understanding if you win then you got straight into the signed fight.... It's not difficult to grasp.

Obviously if you lose then that contract becomes void.

I'm starting to think that Joshua and Hearn are trolling the Wilder's fans but there's more going on in boxing than Joshua vs Povetkin because Joshua can't do anything until he passes that defense first.

why would hearn troll a fanbase he claims doesn't exist?

oh wait cause eddie is good with contradictions!

make no mistake this is no troll attempt...they are just scared to death of wilder

[Curt Henning]

April 2019: Miller
end 2019: Whyte rematch
April 2020: Fury
end 2020: Usyk

this would be ideally what hearn wants....

he can talk about fury and miller or whyte rematches all he wants

but...he aint getting away with that next two years! the boxing world/media will not let him

eventually the pressure became too much on canelo to put of golovkin...and even the pressure made them cave financially to golovkin in a rematch

wilder will get close to 50 percent and aj will be shamed into fighting him sooner rather than later

stop talking dribble...so if thats the case why didnt joshia anniholate wlad when he was certainly way past his best

Do you know if that provision is in the contract signed by AJ? I think we have to toss out conventional wisdom here because Hearn has shown via the flat fee and one way rematch clause that conventional wisdom doesn't apply when it comes to Joshua vs Wilder.

On paper Fury would be a good win, but in reality Fury needs to regain his form before talking about fighting the top heavies.
