All of Joshua’s team signing on here and pretending Lennox is being hard on him. Both guys would have rather fought him but he sat out and let them fight each other!

What $50m offer? Did it come from Wilder's promoter? No! Did it come from his advisor? No! Did it come from his owner? No!
As we discovered, the "money" was being "arranged" by the ****-stirrer, Frank Warren - the most jealous man in British boxing. Given that he has an exclusive deal with BT Sport, even if Joshua had "accepted" the non-contract, the fight would not have been able to go ahead, since anyone who fights Joshua has to do so on the SKY network. The so-called "offer" was made by the fighter - on Instagram. A fighter who, throughout the entirety of his career, had earned less than $30m IN TOTAL, so was clearly in no position to be bandying about nebulous sums like $50m.
The whole thing was a pathetic exercise to use Joshua's name and fame to raise the profile of Wilder - a fighter that before Fury came along, was largely unknown by even his own countrymen.
Anyway, he's had PLENTY of time to accept a fight with Joshua. The whole world has known, since June or July, that Wembley Stadium has been reserved for that very purpose, on April 13. Hearn has even said that if the so-called "biggest fight of the year" between Wilder and Fury can do 1m PPV buys (presumably, that makes Canel v GGG the SECOND-biggest fight of the year - and that did 1.1m) then he is even willing to give Wilder 50%, on account that 1m buys would prove he has sufficient profile to merit an inflated share of the purse.
All he and Fury have got to do is PROVE they are big-name fighters by selling this fight to the masses. Then Wilder gets everything he wants. 50-50, a guaranteed rematch in America, EVEN IF HE LOSES - and the chance to win ALL the belts, become undisputed champion and "the baddest man on the planet."
As things stand - don't fall for the hype. Wilder and Fury are fighting to see who is the number 2 heavyweight in the world. To become number 1, they will have the BEAT the number 1. It's simple.Comment

Keep it real, mate. Wilder has been dodging even DISCUSSING the possibility of fighting Joshua for a whole year, now. A year! He's got NO INTEREST in becoming undisputed champion. Same as Fury, who talks of possible retirement after beating Wilder.
Heavyweight boxing in America is almost non-existent. If that were NOT the case, Wilder would be a PPV king by now. Every TRUE boxing fan understands that the heavyweight scene has decamped to the UK now. The fights are there. The fighters are there. The crowds are there. The money is there. Oh - and 80% of the belts are there, as well. It is absolutely clear that Wilder does not fancy facing Joshua in front of 100,000 fans. He and his owners have been given ample time and opportunities to make it happen. If AJ ends up re-matching Dillian Whyte on 13 April, I don't want to hear any more ****** Wilderettes *****ing about AJ "ducking" Wilder - because it will be, precisely, HIS fault that Joshua is facing an alternate opponent.Comment

Blah, blah, blah! Hearn is playing you all for fools! He didn't want AJ to fight Wilder, and he's only interested now because Fury came in the picture, which makes Joshua look very bad! Even Lennox noted how AJ "changed his tune," When that offer came in! The best HW fight of 2018 is happening on December 1st! Enjoy!Comment
