So, AJ, who has 3 belts to Wilder's 1, should be "forced" to fight a guy he already beat? You are a special kind of ****** hahahaha

Why should AJ force the fight ? According to you he’s the one who’s avoiding it ? Ha
Fury is a mandatory so AJ would be looking at a few years , you also have to take into account a Fury win ,no need to force anything because Fury would fight AJ if he attains the belt .

The fight would make the most money being on PPV live from the United States.
If you really want the fight to happen, a purse bid solves all of this. Both sides bid and whoever bids the most gets the fight.
If you think that Saudi offered somewhere in the region of 100 mil for the Ruiz fight, then you would expect it to be considerably more for any Joshua wilder fight (or fury Joshua too for that matter)

In any case, I am all for any ideas which might force Wilder to stop ducking the fight with AJ.

He doesn’t need to fight Whyte again to force anything. His four belts mean far more than mandatory
AJ is not calling the shots vs Fury or Wilder.

Particularly for a Joshua fight where for this sort of fight in uk mainstream time you would get over 2 mil buys alone, probably half of that at most if in US time zone - so it would have to make up that loss before you even look at other territories including the host site.

The England PPV has nothing to do with USA.
When are your guys going to think with your brains?

Whether you like to believe wilder/fury hold the shots or not, Joshua carries the brings with him the biggest proportion of $ and money talks in this game. Just ask anyone who fights canelo.

Option 1 - US PPV
US sales (assume 1 mil ppv @ $80 which is ambitious) = $80m
Vegas site fee = $20m
UK ppv (1 mil @ £20 = $26) = $26m
Total = $126m
Saudi fight
US ppv/dazn fee = $10m
Saudi site fee = $150m
UK ppv (2 mil x £25 = $32) = $64m
Total = $224m
There are clearly many factors and these are very much estimates but it’s just to show you the idea of how/why fighting outside of the US could prove more profitably, particularly if a place like saudi will offer a huge sum to host the fight
