    Wilder needs Joshua more than ever now.

    Wilder and his team wrongly thought they could just freeze Joshua out. Now that Fury is currently out of the picture Wilder must humble himself and accept that he is the clear B side against Joshua. AJ can make huge paydays vs guys like Miller, Wilder does not have that luxury. Hopefully that puts real pressure on Wilder's side to agree to a deal. That means no more bs offers with no contract from Shelly Finkel, no more refusing meetings, and no more pricing yourself out of the fight! Just negotiate in good faith and Wilder will get the biggest payday of his career and the opportunity to become the Undisputed Heavyweight Champion.

    That's the karma for blatantly ducking Joshua and trying to freeze him out of a fight for the Undisputed crown

      They ALL need each other in that SH#T Division lets be really honest here. After that Top 3 AJ, Fury, Wilder...it is a serious drop off after that. Fury going to ESPN doesn't help AJ either, that will be difficult to make as well. As I posted in another thread it is a legit 3 Way Stand Off: PBC/Showtime/Fox, ESPN and DAZN they all have a Top Heavyweight...SO NOW WHAT?

      If they all put EGO first and trying to keep things IN HOUSE...WE the fans are F#CKED not the fighters because they all will continue to make Millions regardless of who they fight

        Wilder just said in an interview that he is not signed to any network, and I don't believe Joshua has an exclusive deal with DAZN either.

          They all need each other, but remember? Anthony Joshua & Deontay Wilder are the only two of the big 3 with real world championship belts that exist in this realm of reality.

          If you have a belt? Somebody is always going to want to fight you.

            They all benefit by working together but one guy is drastically out in dark now and that's Wilder. Joshua is getting a career high payday of 30M his next fight, Fury just signed a big contract and will get a career high payday his next fight after turning down 10M rematch with Wilder because ESPN offered more money. Wilder is now going back to making 1-2M like he did for the Ortiz and Stiverne fights before fighting Fury.

            So it can't be a a 3 way stand off when 2 guys are standing there with a gun in their hand and all you got is pocket knife. Wilder now has no PPV fights and no opponents to get paid with. While those guys are all guaranteed huge paydays without Wilder and Wilder is the oldest of the 3 at age 33.

              funny enough wilder created fury. remember fury was fightin on undercards before the wilder fight and no one cared about him. now fury has his own a-side engine backing him with top rank and joshua is coming over to fight in the usa. this 3 way competition will probably boost everyones popularity. you need dance partners to make those big fights. floyd vs pac was a lot different than floyd vs guerrero. now wilder will have 2 big name partners. if you duck long enough you can just luck into big fights. now all he has to do is beat a couple bums and wait for the demand to rise and cash ot

                He kinda does, AJ would sell no matter what, problem now is Wilder has gone from number 2 to number 3 in terms of everything. I actually feel sorry for the way Fury treated him.

                  Deontay Wilder should resign with Golden Boy or something, I cannot think of any other major players in the game within america which can really promote him well 'Maybe Mayweather?'. 'If it was all about MONEY, Wilder could even Sign with Matchroom and do a multi-fight deal including fighting Whyte, afew other characters and then Anthony Joshua'.

                    Fury has to fight in USA under this toprank contract Wilder can fight on showtime or ESPN the only thing change is the heavyweight scene moved to America when 2 of the 3 aren't even from America

                    So he is the real A side now?
