    You don’t even know what semantics means in that case.... so you’re not in a position to be handing out ribbons. Unless you’re willing to give the breakdown and show me how they didn’t lose millions then drop the act of being knowledgeable.

      nobody is scared. both sides are following Mayweathers blueprint of business. marinating is a bigger gamble at heavyweight doe... theyre both hoping and praying both stay unbeaten until they clash.

        I agree. You are absolutely right. However didn't Manny Pacquiao lose twice during the marination period of Mayweather/Pacquiao between 2009-2015; With a loss to Timothy Bradley and Juan Manuel Marquez and yet still the fight was a box office smash hit?

          The biggest in history....proving that losses dot hurt a fighters’ marketability as long as he is in good fights against good opponents. Wilder is facing the top opponents in the division, I would be surprised if he didn’t have a loss by the time he fights Joshua. There is no comparison to competition

            Can't make a man fight you if he don't want it. Frazier didnt "freeze out" Ali...that may be a good business model but its bad for the sport and for fighter legacy. Imagine 30 years from now...fans COULD be talking about this as a heavyweight golden age with rematches or trilogies between Joshua-Fury, Wilder-Joshua, Fury-Wilder...these could known as the three kings of the era!

            Unlikely...unfortunately.

            I aint privy to negotiations and don't care who gets paid what...but Joshua SEEMS to be the only one who wants these fights. Lions don't chase bunny rabbits so if you're the champ, you don't chase NOBODY - just keep fighting...remember, Ali defended against Jean Pierre Coopman, Richard Dunn, & Alfredo Evangelista too, not just Frazier, Foreman and superfights.

            Joshua should just do what fighters do and keep defending his titles against whoever wants a shot at glory. Fighters fight...talkers talk...history will judge who was what.

                  I had to resubscribe for DAZN.. 19.99.. ten dollars more this time around.. AJ should KO this bum in 3 or 4 rounds.. if this goes the distance.. I will be disappointed in AJ.

                      I was hoping he would fight Arreola next, but Arreola is fighting Kownacki! Efe needs to step up his competiton! I'd like to see him fight Charles Martin, Izu Ugonoh, or Dominic Breazeale in 2019!
