He doesn't want those Wilder problems. I think getting hurt the way he did in the last fight, made him take a step back and reevaluate some things.

endorsements wise.. he is currently the face of under armour, audemars piguet, lucozade, Jaguar / Land rover plus about 20 more..
he simply doesnt need to fight in the US as of yet, and quite frankly the "validation" it supposedly carries means nothing because US boxing on TV is on its arse right now.

The long term gains outweigh the short term losses imo.

Exactly. And also, other than fear, what reason does Wilder have to not work toward the England showdown in Wembley before 50-75K fans?
The fight makes mucho mas bucks in the U.S. so I except the Bronze Bomber to maybe let
AJ have a lil more Bread, and the Bomber gets home field advantage.
