    Well im hearing Fury is stepping back now and doesnt want the rematch immediately which give Wilder no excuses to not face Joshua. But i suspect Wilder will just continue to duck Joshua and had Fury not stepped back i think any negotiations would of fallen apart due to them not being able to agree on a location for the fight, as in Wilder wont travel after being helped from officials in his last 2 fights, the only 2 fights where he fought anybody worth talking about.
    D.Wilder fought Fury & Aj ducked D.Wilder/50 million so WTF is YOU talking about?

      What nonsense. Joshua is drawing around $10 mil gates. That's top 30 all time in vegas. To break in the top 10 Vegas gates it's 14.3 mil. They could easily make that at Wembley upping the ticket prices. Wilder is no Mayweather, he's not going to do Mayweather gates in Vegas. Wilder-Fury didn't even sell out. A lazy excuse with no substance behind it.

        Guess Aj will get a taste of his own medicine but the difference is D.Wilder didn't ask for 28 mil guarantee....LMMFAO!

            the Fury rematch is the hottest fight in boxing to make. so why doubt that's what's coming next? Wilder will look real bad if Fury is not given an IMMEDIATE rematch.

              I don't think Wilder will fight either, either haha. Fury will not want to fight in the US again after getting robbed and Wilder does not have the balls to fight in the UK even though he would likely make 3 times what he made the first fight. Wilder will also not fight AJ because, no matter what he says, he knows deep down that he will lose against him. His handlers know this too and that's the reason why Wilder will fight lessor guys for a lot less money, but will flat out refuse to fight AJ for 10 times the amount and 4 belts. He will end up fighting Breazeale and Breazeale will have a punchers chance but ultimately come up short because of his limited ability. Meanwhile Fury fights a couple of more tune ups and then both Wilder and Fury both start hollering AJ's name in every interview again.

                It's widely known Klitschko-Joshua did over £8 mil that's more than $10mil. The prices have been the same for all his fights. So yes he's doing around $10 mil for his gates.

                  what numbers exactly should we look at? irrelevant numbers for mayweather? or numbers for wilder, who has never sold out any arena, and who couldn't even sellout in the midst of hollywood millionaires?

                  i'm not the one being ****** here.

                    I see him going with the Fury rematch. It'd be very surprising to me if he turned down Fury's terms for the rematch and also turned down AJ's offer. Hard to be sure which he goes with but he's not going to make Breazeale his priority. He'll accept one offer because if he doesn't, AJ-Fury will happen and Wilder will be left on the outside.

                    Wilder isn't perfect, his earlier defences were weak, but he pursued meaningful fights vs Ortiz, Fury and in both he had to dig deep, show willpower, mental resilience, and the character of a champion. I just don't see the 'he knows he loses to the elite, he's ducking' etc. narrative.

There is literally not one good reason for him to take a rematch with Fury over a unification fight with AJ, other than the fact that Fury can't KO him in front of 100k fans haha. Here's what I see happening. Fury will want to fight in the UK and Wilder will refuse. Then Fury will say screw it and Wilder will end up fighting Breazeale and Fury will fight another "tune up" in the UK, maybe 2 of them. Meanwhile AJ will fight another top ten opponent and Wilder and his idiotic fans will say that AJ ducked and fights bums. Not of that makes any sense, but that's how I see everything playing out. We won't get a unification fight until Wilder loses that belt and AJ can fight someone else who has the balls to fight him. One more thing I forgot to add, Wilder will say AJ's name every day, in every interview while this entire thing is going on...but he won't fight him
                      Ha ha, spot on.

                      That said, it is good to see the past week or so many Americans calling Wilder out for his bull, he's out of excuses and people are calling him on it.
