    Tyson Fury, twice, isn't a lesser threat.

        Of course they should. Promoters work for the fighters, or so they say.

          The fighter is totally to blame if I'm not a fan of his, but fighters I root for can do no wrong, so it's gotta be the greedy promoters fault.

              I"ve always wondered if some fighters use their promoters as reasons as to why not make a fight, but I agree that a fighter chooses his promoter, not the other way around.

                  Lol, nah that makes me wayyyy happy. They cherrypicked him and am glad he destroy your “King”.... Doesn’t change the fact that your cherrypick him. Lesser threats are Breazeale and Ortiz. Nice try though fan girl..

                    I have neither called him "my King" nor made excuses for his loss. You can direct that towards someone else, AJ ballwasher.

                    Tyson Fury isn't considered a lesser threat by any normal, sane boxing fan.

                      it has been clearly obvious that Wilder was ready, and willing, to step to anyone... since he first signed to fight Povetkin...

                      it has been clearly obvious that Joshua has been ducking Wilder... since that interview in 2017 where AJ admitted that he was not ready, that he will not be pushed into fighting Wilder, and that does not care if the Wilder fight does not happen until 2010

                      he's a chicken man... like all those TOP british fighters are saying
