I've been laughing all day reading the comments from Wildettes about how Wilder is playing chess by announcing all his supposed next moves during Josh's fight week, lol.
Apart from Wildettes and perhaps boxing reporters, no one really cares about what Wilder is doing next. 4,000 people attended Josh's press conference on Thursday and 6000 attended the weigh-in, with all kinds of boxers and celebrities in attendance. Wilder couldn't even get 6000 heads to buy tickets to his last fight in the same city, lol. And tomorrow, MSG would be sold out with over 20,000 people in attendance.
I believe it just burns Wilder's soul like ether to see a next man come to his country and steal the show, then get all the love he never gets, lol. I guess that's why he's trying to play all his cards at once. But regardless, you can't win or freeze out a man with 3 belts and more commercial power than you. You're going to end up losing on the long run.
No matter what AJ does, his brand is going to keep growing and the spoiler is going to be Usyk once he gets in the mix. If Usyk ever looks good in his heavyweight debut, best believe he's going to be the next white hype, especially since he's going to be fighting in the US. And if Josh ends up beating him, his already huge profile is going to end up getting bigger.
As for Wilder, if he ends up losing to either Fury or Ortiz, his career and chance for a big payday is over because I doubt Josh will fight him with nothing at stake.
