Comments Thread For: Wilder Explains Why He Finalized Ortiz, Passed on Joshua

[Shadoww702]

It screams DUCK to you? What realistic offer has been made to Wilder by A.J and his camp? Why is there not a one fight mega offer? Because they don't want that work! They talk a good game and then come up with some DAZN deal where they try and tie Wilder up promotionally. Wilder is betting on himself and if he continues to win he will earn more than the 100 mil DAZN offer. Breazeale, Ortiz, possibly Kownacki, a Fury rematch and then A.J. The A.J fight alone would mean 40 or 50 mil for Wilder.

Wasn’t it a three fight deal they offered Wilder??? Showtime can’t allow that.

Neither Wilder or Joshua are demanding the fight to be made. They have the power to make it.

Wilder is an American embarrassment, a WWF type Bull s**ter. There... I said it.

Wilder has no contract with showtime and it was a two fight deal, 1st with *beatable* Breazeale for 20 mil and then AJ for 100mil. Lastly, Wilder is trying like crazy to get PPV $$$ and get away from the limited $ that cable can offer.

Well he made a good start on his self gamble. Nobody had any interest in the Breazeale fight, the numbers tell us that. People already kicking off about Ortiz 2 and the facts its PPV and when i say people i include Wilder fans.

Hes already down on the estimations. Joshua offered 100 million for 3 fights. Hes had 1, made less than 10, so unless the Ortiz 2 and Kownacki fights pay him $45M each then id say his gamble aint going to well.

Joshua offered that 100 mill, he also offered 60-40, Hearn said 50-50 isnt unrealistic any more and that seems to of scared Wilder in to filling his calander with weaker opposition. So i dont know where you get your "REALISTIC OFFERS" thing from.

Dont forget 12.5, Joshua's 1st ever offer to Wilder, remember that disgusting lowball? Well TILL THIS DAYYYYYYYYY, It would still be Wilders highest ever pay day. But he dont want any of those offers, he dont want to sit and negotiate any other offers and he certainly hasnt been back with any counter offers. So HELL YES IT SCREAMS DUCK TO ME. Does it not to you? It should.

Have you just awoken from a coma? Joshua been calling Wilder out big time, very much demanding this fight to be made. So is Eddie Hearn. But Wilder is going in a different direction. Hes lined up other fighters and will not entertain any more offers or negotiations from Team Joshua.

If Joshua had the power to force this fight this fight would of already happened.

AJ demanded it, told Eddie Hearn to step aside. Asked for a face to face, "what do you want" meeting.

Wilder instead signed Ortiz, what's that tell you?

It tells me business is boss

Ortiz Did Not almost stop Wilder in the 7th round,, Yea he caught him with good shots but Wilder never touched the Canvas. Joshua looked more wobbled when he got caught on a chin against Whyte..
Wlad almost stopped AJ when he dropped him on his ass.
