This guy is a pretty good boxing scene writer. However when he covers the actual fight he reports it Backwards..??? It’s the most annoying thing ever? He starts from Rd 12 action back to Rd 1? Is it just me or is that the most ******ed way to read about a actual scrap? I am very frustrated with this... 🤷*♂️

AJ is fighting a live body.. miller is a tough fight.. So he gets a pass... But we all heard Whyte call Ortiz 60,000 years old to discredit Wilders win last year.. And then we seen him pop smoke when King Kong came looking for him.. an fought Parker instead.. an almost lost! FURY has Shark bite syndrome.. he will never surf with Wilder again!!! Lmao. Joyce called Ortiz out.. but his handlers say hes only worth 50k.. keep grind joyce.. im riding with u.. but get that head movement together son.. if u let Wilder touch that steel chin like Stiverne did u.. he will melt that shyte.. i just think that's a bad idea at this level. Wilder will KO you.

Nah. Wilder needs to fight Joshua now. Brezeale in May and then Joshua at end of the year. Nothing else makes sense.

But they did try to force Canelo to fight GGG, causing ginger nuts to dump his belt before coming back a couple of years later when he was ready. It makes you wonder why they seem to give some of their champs more leeway than others.

WBC is mexican.. an Mexico has a lot of pride.. so when u have a entire country saying fight GGG.. WBC has to enforce it. Or they will strip u for cowardness.. but hey Canelo fought him twice. So much respect now..

Glad I'm not the only one who's mind can't handle the backwards reporting lol

Very true but ...

i) DAZN hold on AJ is not strong (they only have first refusal on his next fight), they don't manage or promote him.

ii) Finkel has previous for extremely bad contract tricks like Don King , he basically stole Sahnnon Briggs money see US courts. Hearn hasn't.

Really Al Haymon should get Finkel kicked out, Wilder has other "managers" now and Al runs a bucket load of them. Shelley needs to retire.

Lets hope... although I think DAZN will have more luck negotiating with Finkel if Hearn's not involved - those 2 really don't seem to play well together.

Wilder is going find himself, so tied up in mandatories and voluntary defenses, over the next two years; At this point, we probably wont get the Joshua vs Wilder undisputed heavyweight championship bout until 2021.

In addition, The Fury rematch has already been ruled out. He is not going over to ESPN to defend his title against Tyson Fury.

If Fury wants the rematch, then he will do so the champion's Deontay Wilder's terms but he won't. Which means he doesn't really want the fight.

Lastly, Deontay Wilder's potentially next four opponents are probably Breazeale, Kownacki, Whyte and Ortiz.

I would love to see this fight happen again. I would prefer to see Ortiz fight one more eliminator against another top guy to earn a shot at the title again. Even though ortiz put up a great fight, he was still kod so i think he should have to fight another guy by his rank and see who gets the title shot.

"Wilder and Ortiz produced an epic heavyweight fight last March 3 that warrants running it back."

Let's Get It! King Kong, handle your biz tomorrow. MAN UP!

Canelo fought a old GGG and still lost both fights. He ran a mile when GGG was at his peak
