I think In Feb AJ should fight Miller in the US
Wilder fight Whyte in the UK. That way both guys get exposure to each others market

They should build Miller up for after Joshua-Wilder fight. And he can get the winner.

See Ive been thinking if Wilder gunna fight in the UK, why fight Whyte, when he could fight the winner of Bellew/Haye, both bigger draws than Whyte, both been in PPVs. If the intention is to get popular to the UK public you fight one of those guys, not Whyte who cant fill an arena on his own

That's actually a pretty great idea. But this is boxing, so that will never happen. Mainly because if Bellew wins again, he's gonna feel disrespected if his reward for beating Haye 2x is being fed to Deontay Wilder. And if Haye wins, they're gonna go the trilogy route IMO.

Wilder is hilarious, after seeing of those shots he threw against Bumane I'm beginning to think this guy regresses with every fight.

I don't think he intends to learn the finer aspects of the fundamentals. His windmills work for him I guess...

[LetOutTheCage]

Joshua scared doe.

[KillaCamNZ]

Since when has "starting talks" ever guaranteed a fight?

****ing bull**** information.

[Robbie Barrett]

Fight will happen only if Wilder is realistic with his demands. Looks like Hearn believes Wilder will be. I don't.

[JimRaynor]

Yeah, I caught onto that too. "I don't care about money nor am I motivated by it I don't care about $4m. Give me $7m and I will fight".

Honestly Wilder deserves a flat fee of $4m for Joshua. He's the C side and brings only a WBC belt to the table. Parker is a more proven and accomplished title holder with an arguably equal or bigger fan base.

Bull**** the only thing Parker brings to the table is the WBO belt thats it. He is about as exciting as getting a splinter stuck in your toe.

I'd say less exciting to be honest. However, my point is neither has fans but Parker has the better resume than Wilder.
