Did Joshua respond to Wilder's chip challenge yet ? Wilder took it like a boss.

This was arguably one of the funniest clips of all time. Thanks for sharing!

The same clown who threatened to get a restraining order on Wilder to keep him from coming into the ring against Povetkin....frauds

I was thinking the EXACT same thing!!!

Lets hope so, both are saying the same thing so make it happen

Even if they don't fight next, it would be great to have that Dialog and at least come to an agreement and with a Time Frame when they will fight. If it is 2020 then so be it, good luck to both of them until then

The guarantee is the issue....

If AJ guarantee is $50 mil why can't Wilder get $30 mil guarantee and 60/40 on back end in AJ favor. That's equitable and fair. That still leaves a lot of money for everyone else seeing how this fight will generate 1.5 to 2.5 mil PPV buys at $70-80 a pop. That doesn't count the gate or international rights. The gate alone will more than cover Wilder so everyone needs to stop being so greedy because everyone from the promoters, networks and most importantly fighters will be taken care of.

Is the Garden sold out though?

Not yet, but there's still many days left.

Just looking at tickets, damn Joshua is selling 25k tickets that's about an entire ringside row for a wilder fight.

When you have to lie it proves you don't have a real point to stand on.

Wilder did 1 million views AJ last 3 fights put together didn't do that in the US.

AJ hasn't sold out. He has thousands of tickets available on StubHub and had to drop the price lije 70%. Wilder had a packed arena. He may have come just short of selling out. In addition to all that he has gone viral with the KO. AJ needs Wilders help to promote this snoozefest

No he did 800k on average. i.e people not just switching past.

The fight, which headlined a three-fight broadcast from the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, averaged 886,000 viewers

Yeah you're right. AJ definitely needs Wilder to sell let's forget he made a record setting pre-sale at MSG.

You make a lot of sense

"They should sit us down face to face, that would be good. I think they should sit us down face to face and talk about what the issues are man to man and get this fight sorted this year," Joshua said to Sky Sports.


Who is “they” aren’t you a grown man, with Wilder’s phone number? This seems like more of the same old “promote my current fight, off the possibility of a future fight”. FOH AJ if you really wanna speak/ negotiate call that man stop this media pr chit. It’s seems very desperate

I'm not sure what your source is for tickets sold, but MSG only holds 20,789 for boxing events and not all sections were opened for ticket sale.

USD25.000 pr ticket for some tickets.

Thought that was obvious.

Whoever paid that amount should ask for a refund because current ringside seats are selling for only $5,000.
