that will be the biggest fight in 2019 if it comes on.

We all do hope it happens Evander but Wildher is tied up with Fury for next two fight and isn't available until end of 2019.

I can only see it happening if it's in April at Wembley, nowhere else holds enough fans for the unification. The plan is for AJ to fight stateside in Sep/Oct 19, but that will be Miller or maybe Usyk at Barclays centre. Hearn won't send AJ to Vegas for his 1st fight in USA, that particular den of corruption is unforgiving to 1st time foreigners to say the least.

People getting too nervous whilst there are great fights in meantime.
Fury v wilder is the only fight in interested in right now

2020 with the way things are going. By then it would be a 50-50 fight.

From all heavyweights from 90-is, I respect Holyfield the most. he fought them all. he fought Bowe, Tyson, Lewis, Foreman..

Wilder won’t play with the big dancing Fury he must KO him quickly!

I agree with the Champ the Wilder vs Joshua fight is the biggest fight out there!!

I’m taking Wilder to dispatch him in two rounds. Can’t play around and he won’t !!

It will happen when Gay J stops being a pussy.

Also, how can Evander say that he has never in his life seen a man draw 100,000 people to a fight? Did he somehow miss it when Julio Cesar Chavez packed 136,000 into Azteca Stadium to see him destroy Greg Haugen?

no ray because wilder will never become the draw that Anthony Joshua is....he will have start proving he is a drawing power against fury because if it don't make great numbers he remains the B-side against AJ
