Comments Thread For: Wilder: Joshua Won't Fight Me April 13th; Should Be Embarrassed

[Noelanthony]

And you UK fans wonder why we laugh at you.

He is actually from Minnesota! What now??🤷🏾*♂️

Charles was a great champion and if not for the might of Joshua I have no doubt in my mind he will probably still be champ. The fight between him and Joshua he done some clever stuff in there that he didn’t get credit for. It was a back and forth contestfor 2 rounds but give Martin his due....... without him we wouldn’t have the IBF belt. I will be forever grateful. However as for the worst champion that title goes to no other than yours truly

No I’m just playing but if we can’t beat this ,we don’t deserve to hold any belts

And the was F Spilka, imagine a real fighter

NO one can answer a very simple question for me. I will keep asking it until I get a response.

Of the 10 highest grossing PPVs of all time. Which of the 20 FIGHTERS INVOLVED agreed to a flat fee split and not a percentage.
I'll wait.....

Just till November and you will get your answer. Deontay Wilder.

To think my ancestors fought alongside his but he will do it

U people make me laugh.. you want wilder to shut up take $15 million and be happy for a fight that is easily the biggest fight in boxing.. a fight that will generate at least a $100 million.. aj can not make a fight with ANYONE else that will generate a $100 mill so why should wilder take $15 million?? give joshua 55% and give wilder 45%. This fight will be a career high payday for BOTH fighters!

I really try to listen to people and hope they make valid points but wow a lot of you guys on here do NOT!!!!

I am AMAZED the some of you are saying that Wilder is clearly ducking. Strange. Then you are dismissing his resume which though not impressive is VERY SIMILAR to Joshua's.

# 1: You can dismiss it if you like but AJ said if Wilder can come up with 50 million then he would take the fight. Wilder did that. AJ said I think my fans deserve to have the fight in the UK. Wilder agreed. AJ offered a flat rate. Wilder accepted. All he asked was that if he lost his title to receive a REMATCH something that every Champion deserves. Not only did AJ say No he says even if it's a DRAW there is not going to be a rematch. WOW

# 2: AJ fans are giving him huge props for fighting Pov. I am one of those fans who could careless if a fighter is on PEDs or not ( if you fight them and beat them it counts), but Wilder had agree to fight him FIRST in Russia. Is it his fault that Pov got popped for PEDs? The contract was signed fight was set and Pov got popped. How is that WILDER DUCKING HIM?

# 3: I keep chuckling at how everyone is now loving Wlad when he was fighting EVERYONE hated his style but that aside HE RETIRED AFTER LOSING HIS LAST 2 FIGHTS BACK TO BACK. The last one he was KOd. To give props to AJ for fighting the guy who got beat in the fight but dis Wilder for beating the guy who BEAT HIM is ridiculous. Fury may be drugged up and fat as you guys say but that is an opinion. What is not is he is the lineal champion who LEGITIMATELY BEAT WLAD for the beats. PERIOD.MHe has NEVER been beaten yet now he is a BUM because Wilder is fighting him. WOW.

I am open for dialect so if you can make an actual point without resorting to name calling or juvenile insults please respond because I don't understand how ANYONE says Wilder is the bad guy here.

Both sides seem to be putting the fight off IMO, AJ could of took the 50 mil and Wilder who "doesn't care about the money" could have took 5 times his highest pay day and said ***** it i'll take your money and your belts and make more later on but they din't .

However I don't see how the facts that Fury did do drugs and did get massively fat (which does damage your body) is just an "opinion" Thats like saying if Mayweather comes back when he's 60 and someone beats him they're the best because age is an "opinion".

The 15 Mil actually works out that they both get 5 times their highest pay day which sounds pretty fair to me.

No I don’t want Wilder to accept a 15million flat fee but those are my own personal feelings.However what I would like is for him to stop babbling on about Joshua being scared because if he was there wouldn’t be a signed contract sitting in front of you and you and your manager are playing silly games with the media saying Why is Eddie’s signature on the contract when your manager knows full well Eddie has power of attorney as Joshua is his client.

So to conclude Joshua is not scared because Wilder has a contract to sign and Wilder is not scared because he has been calling for this fightand he won’t sign the contract because he doesn’t accept flat fees in 2019. Just playing but it does make you think if you try and think impartially that would he ever have signed a flat fee to begin with? We know he wants the fight, I don’t doubt that but he doesn’t just want to sell his belt. Which is fair enough.

N.B 45% for Wilder please explain how you came about this percentage? I’m not saying it’s right or wrong, just explain

Why is he selling his belt if he knows hes going to win and get a rematch in which hes guaranteed 50 % which would generate 100 Million ?

The truth is Wilders scared to lose without an irrational amount which is why he demands 50% continuously , i see no evidence he or his team had intentions of making this fight until 2019 but they agreed to an already live contract !

[Ake-Dawg]

Of course he talks to the people close to the thing, I have no doubt. He still ain't at the table.

He goes by what he has been told. He isn't a Joshua fan nor am i, he is more of a Wilder fan and i have zero issues with that.

And i think he is also jealous of the way the british people took to Joshua, something he didn't experience here until later on in his career over here.

He achieved a lot and had to prove his britishness many times over, people have taken to Joshua easily than what he went through. You can almost tell from his messages that he is jealous.

What I can tell is that Lewis's opinion holds just as much weight as yours and mine. He could be a jealous former fighter and still accurately depict the situation. Calling him jealous is not different than stating that someone's point of view is disqualified because they are a Joshua or Wilder fan.

Casual fan paleeez

Casual fans and double standard latent racist, who don’t care for Black outspoken fighters, that are particularly aligned with Al Haymon. Whom you hate simply because he helped make Floyd huge! Paleeeez STFU!

15 miliion though it would be Deontays highest purse, for this fight is a lowbal. Particularly with no back end money, and no rematch clause. AJ is the A-side, but he isn’t so much the A-side that they get to treat Deontay like he’s a nobody.

So casual fans paleeeez cut the BS, an stop acting like Wilder is a fool for knowing his worth in this particular fight! No yo roll an shut your mouth Jabronis (The Rocks voice)!
