    He is afraid of Deontay Wilder. The only reason why Anthony Joshua is fighting in America because he has nowhere to go. After this fight where does he go? He promised the people of England a fight for the month of April which did not happen.

    At first he said there was no reason for him to fight in America but he is fighting in America now but he is not fighting Deontay Wilder. When Wilder accepted the $15 mil offer from Eddie Hearn; He said that the fight couldn't happen in Sept 2018 because of the Canelo/Golovkin fight and that Joshua needed at least a twelve week training camp.

    However, Joshua ended up fighting in September of last year anyway against Povetkin. So it was just one big ole excuse after another. They really didn't want the fight in 2018.
    So a moment ago you said he was desperate to fight Wilder, now he's back to being scared?

    You're making total sense.

      He’s not wrong. Right now the only value Wilder brings is his belt.
      Is he selling out arenas? Even reduced capacity arenas? Nope
      His most recent fight had fewer views than his last non PPV fight.
      His only PPV fight did low buys and they were practically giving tickets away.
      And it’s not like he’s a young up and comer. He’s almost in his mid 30’s.
      Joshua is younger, has a better resume, and broke pre release ticket records at MSG. They will have a packed house despite a third option opponent. The first guy came up dirty and their first replacement choice apparently hates life changing money and a chance to be HW champion at the same time.
      The more time passes the worse the fight will happen for “I like low risk/high reward fights (his words)” Deontay Wilder.

But I want that fight to be a pay-per-view fight over here and a pay-per-view fight in the UK, and then we can go back to the purses in the olden days with the heavyweights.”



        so hearn jerked wilder around a couple of times when having him on the hook for 12.5 million so wilder can make more money.....wilder is taking hearns advice as hearn himself has yet to officially complete an AJ fight in the states.....and yall are still mad at wilder

        LOL
        Why don’t you link the article or video where he said that?

          Hearn is all over the place, one minute "He Has Raised His Profile" next minute he needs to raise his Profile some more... No Wonder the fight can't be made

          He really needs to STFU if we want this fight to happen

            Man. Pbc shill payroll checks must have arrived in the mail yesterday.

            Why is there such a concerted effort to do all this just 6 days from AJs first us fight?

                I see the UK's are quoting me to tell me what's going on in America even though I live here and they're thousands of miles away. But the read something on the internet and watched a YouTube video. They know more about what's going on in America than I do
