He goes quietly about his business of knocking out top contenders. He offered Wilder a fight in England earlier for much more money than Wilder made for fighting Fury. If he really feared Wilder he would make him no offer to fight at all.
    And Wilder offered Joshua life changing money and he turned it down

        Folks aren't grasping it, but DAZN has near zero visability in the United States.

        Canelo Alvarez is fighting in two weeks, and no one is even side-mentioning it.

        You add the real possibility that Wilder-Fury 2 could possibly happen in Las Vegas on Kentucky Derby weekend (First Saturday of May; Derby, a major baseball game, and a big fight is the routine), and things get interesting quick, lol

            I don’t think we’ll be seeing Lebron Tweet about his fights anytime soon.

                The offer that is now in complete contradiction as to its origins from apparently the two seperate parties who got to see it before Hearn and Joshua?

                Was it put up in part by BT as per Frank warren who absolutely positively says he saw it and worked on it?

                Was it up fronted by showtime and other unnamed ( non BT ) as per Espinoza who says Warren was absolutely incorrect..then said he was misinterpreted within a minute of eachother?

                Do you honestly think after cable takes its cut.. that the fight being sold at a 75 dollar price point sells 1.35 million just to cover AJ's guarantee?

                Can you agree that given the financials ..somebody who fronted that cash was massively losing out on money?

                  Possibly someone on his team looked at the Ortiz scorecards and pointed out it came with life changing judging thrown in? After what happened to Fury in LA it's looking like that person knew their stuff. Although it's funny watching people try to justify it. Sad of course, but funny too.

                    Joshua is making good money in England. Why risk it?

                      You’re right. Why risk it.

                      People just need to stop calling Joshua the best though. He’s not. He’s he United Kingdom’s Heavyweight Champion.
