Lets see if he is also a tough enough cat. If he is, he will come to London for three World Championship belts.
It’s so lack lustre tho, isn’t it, boxing these days. I was brought up with big, great, entertaining middleweight and heavyweight fights.
It’s the only fight to make and it’s basically set isn’t it? I dunno if they make more money fighting in the US though due to the PPV timing...
It’s quite odd that Joshua isn’t fighting in the statues really. Amber the have lost interest too. Although judging can be a bit ‘inventive’, almost as much as Germany
I'm not sure... Wilder doesn't seem too keen and Joshua states that the fight must take place in the UK. Also the IBF, WBA and WBO - will call mandatory challengers for their belts which Joshua must fight or lose their organisations belt so its complicated. Personally I think there are way too many belts!
Did anyone see the Price v Hard fekkin Russian on the undercard? Not seen such a savage KO in a long time....
They don't have leverage over him. He's gonna fight who he wants to fight. I can see why he would want the fight in the UK. Huge gate, of which he gets a part. I think Wilder will come over because it really is the best fight to make by miles.
Joshua vs Wilder is the best fight for the fans definitely. If Wilder thinks he might not win, he is better off remaining a champion and fighting in the states for big earnings.
Wilder is part of a business. Theres a lot of money involved. Maybe his management want to defend a few fights in the USA for the money for a while?
