Comments Thread For: Joshua: Wilder Doesn't Want Me Next; Can Get It When He's Ready

Off subject: Jay Harris & Angel Moreno fight a very important EBU flyweight title fight in Cardiff tonight. Has the fight been cancelled or has ESB just neglected it?

It's beautiful how Wilder & Al Haymon froze out AJ & Eddie Hearn. Good luck fighting boring ass Pulev & Dillian Shyte on that trash app.

You don’t understand what being frozen out means if you think Wilder can freeze out Joshua.

Each guy is the other’s biggest pay day. Without each other they make less, especially Wilder.

Styles makes fights. Its funny how the "hardcore" fans say if AJ or Wilder lose the fight loses appeal. Whats with all the need for "undefeated" showdowns in EVERY fight?

None of the great fighters from the 70s-90s are undefeated so having an 0 on your record isnt an end all be all.

Wilder vs AJ is well known power vs power. I dont think these two will have any problem getting causal interest. With the hype machines behind AJ and DW there wont be a lack of interest.

I dont know what AJ fans want at this point. They say Wilder inst a big enough star to earn 50/50 with AJ yet dont want him to do the things he needs to do to increase his supposed low value.

How is Wilder supposed to increase his value and his profile without fighting worthy opponents?? Some act like he's supposed to fight AJ on call and then take whatever deal is thrown his way.

On AJs side, I guess his fans still feel he's like he's boxing big star despite not facing anyone of note in over two years (Wlad). Is Parker and Whyte plus whoever he faces over the next two years enough to keep him as a cash cow.

Can you really respect his reign despite NEVER fighting Fury, Wilder, and Ortiz while Wilder will have fought Fury and Ortiz TWICE.

If Wilder wins his fights then KOs AJ will there be any dobut he ranks up with the All Time greats? AJ is in trouble of taking a lot of high risk little reward fights because most of the people available now are either young or not highly thought of.

I makes me go back to the Parker fight. Had the ref allowed Parker to fight inside and actually challenge AJ we may have had and interesting fight there may be some interest in a rematch.

But AJs only rematch of interest available is Whyte and I dont see that fight selling big in the UK let alone the US.

AJ is in a real bind unless Hearn does a good job convincing the public guys like Dubois and Usyk are ready and worthy. Joyce and David Price arent going to move the needle. If he wants the American market then he needs to sign Franklin asap and build his brand so he can face AJ on good terms.

Wilder isn’t an ambitious man, he has been carried and pampered by massa Finkle and Uncle Tom Al Haymon, there is a reason he has never been in a unification fight since he captured the wbc belt... he says one name, one face but always contracdict himself, first he says AJ is begging to fight him, in same breadth he says, AJ don’t want the fight...at least AJ is saying one thing, he wants the fight...Wilder is a fraud and an American big joke!

And you like both AJ and Wilder idol worshippers are emotional windbags. Emotionally worse than a teenage girl waking up to find blood in her bed for the first time.

Bumsquad will never be ready for an AJ fight, never!!!

If Wilder loses to Fury in a rematch, and most say he already lost the first one, then a Joshua-Wilder fight loses it's allure. Then it's Fury vs Joshua that is the big fight. But these fights are in the distant future sadly.

It would certainly tarnish it a bit but a loss to Fury isn't a deal breaker. If Joshua fought Fury there's a good chance he would lose on decision and hat wouldn't be a deal breaker either. The reason I say this is styles make fights and a Wilder against Joshua fight would still be the best heavyweight fight from a fan perspective. Fury's boxing ability is exceptional but he is a dull fighter to watch. Fury is an "A" side when it comes to ability but certainly a "B" side when it comes to bringing in the viewers.

Haha.... more like PBC froze Beyoncé out of a unification bout.

I wonder how Wilder is going to respond tomorrow morning when the entire American crowd is chanting AJ’s name after his KO victory tonight when he calls Wilder a coward in front of millions?

Better head off to that drawing board pretty quick. The PBC drunk tank, I mean “think tank” has some work to do, Hahahaha.

They really freezing out DAZN. Showtime wants the Joshua Wilder fight and are willing to overpay Wilder to get it without a bidding war against DAZN.

By George, I think this kid finally gets it. It's time to move on now with your career. Wilder, doesn't want you anymore. So go back before your sell out capacity crowds at Principality Stadium and Wembley by fighting more Euro bums in Great Britain.

Well said sir well said...wish the whole lot of them at slaveroom would feck off back to that southern fairie shythole called London. Top rank and PBC have beaten Hearn, humiliated him, and locked him out of any meaningful fights....Hearn looks completely and utterly inept to the dazn gov about now
