Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua Eager To Face Usyk, Says Fury is a 'Bit of a Waffler'

[mattr]

Holyfield is the best cruiserweight we've ever seen. Get it right, AJ.

"Offer me $50 million and i'll... " "I'll be glad to spar with Fury and help him get ready for Wilder.." Would you like syrup with your waffles?

What the **** is a Waffler?

You don't have that term in England? It's a common term in the U.S., particularly in political circles, used for a person who constantly changes their opinion or position on an issue. Fury does sort of contradict himself from day to day, so I think its a fair criticism.

Thank you for clearing that up. Green K for you.

I don’t think wilder wanted to have other people
Being his boss....ie the people at dazn or Hearn. No need to sing multi fight deals with a network.

That is a pathetic excuse. For fights to get made, contracts have to be signed and adhered to, by everybody involved. Nobody becomes anybody else's boss when a fight contract is signed. They all have to follow the terms of the contract.

Wilder was offered a fight by fight option by DAZN, as an alternative to the multi-fight deal. He turned down all the options because Haymon didn't want him fighting on DAZN.

We do use that term in the UK.

Outside of him fighting Wilder or Fury, this is a decent fight

[TMLT87]

Its the best fight AJ could have outside of Wilder or Fury. Even with Usyk being relatively unproven at HW, the guy is an arguable top 5 p4p'er right now, very skilled, good volume, good chin. Beat Hunter as a pro, has ammy wins over the likes of Joyce, Majidov and Nistor (latter two beat AJ as an amateur). Its a legit fight. If Joshua cant get him out of there he could well see himself falling well behind on the scorecards as the fight goes on.

Somebody who waffles on a lot.

It means he talks an awful lot about nothing much.

I know right! A waffler sounds like the name you would give a little guy that likes them big girls to sit on his face until he passes out!?!? Lmao!!!

Maybe in your head it does. Its a common term for somebody who talks a lot about nothing much. A bit like you at times.
