Comments Thread For: Matchroom target Deontay Wilder for Anthony Joshua

[Bob]

Basically buying an easy KO for Joshua to try to convince the world that he's still got it. Anyone who knows boxing knows that it's a farce.

That's Ajs entire career fighting shot past it 38-41yr olds & cans up until Usyk.

Wilder is like 40 and shot

Joshua is also way past it

They made a huge deal out of Joshua beating a 42 year old wladimir, can you imagine what AJ will be like by 42

That win was overrated

Exactly, Add tto that all the other shot past it 38-41yr olds &whos he actually beaten apart from young Parker with the ref in his pocket.

If this fight had happened before Wilders "draw" with Fury and AJ getting embarrassed by a fatty it would have been the biggest fight in combat sports by a significant margin. AJ/Fury would have been huge too.

Still kind of big fights but to think what we could have had. Its a ****ing shame.

& only 1 name refused to deal with the other 2.

I would be very surprised if ether Tyson Fury or Deontay Wilder fight Anthony Joshua now 'Not because those fights are difficult to make. But because anyone who knows boxing, is aware that both Fury and Wilder have always been weary of Joshua. The reason why originally both Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder fought, was because stylistically they believed each other was stylistically the easier fight for them. Fury and Wilder fought each other to avoid fighting Anthony Joshua. People all need to be honest and acknowledge this'.

Tyson Fury vs Deontay Wilder I 'Was not a bigger fight than Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua or Deontay Wilder vs Anthony Joshua. It was a tactically move by both the Fury and Wilder camps to firstly fight each other, to avoid fighting Joshua. Who at the time stylistically was appearing to be a more all round formidably fighter. Anthony Joshua was a Super Heavyweight fighter, arguable rated in the top-3 most powerful punchers in the divisions, and skill for skill as a technical boxer? Only really Tyson Fury could have been rated above him. That combination of attributes is still why all these years later? Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder are still very weary of Anthony Joshua'.

Note: I have always been adamant that stylistically Anthony Joshua is a extremely bad fight for Tyson Fury 'Out of both Fury and Wilder. Tyson Fury is the easier fight to prepare for and potentially win for Joshua. Yes you hear me right? Even currently right now, I would rate this version of Deontay Wilder a tougher and more formidable fight for Anthony Joshua than Tyson Fury. I don't think Fury really has the attributes to greatly challenged Joshua, whereas Deontay Wilder has serious power and aggression'.

Therefore? Although at the beginning of the post I did state that I would be surprised if either Fury or Wilder fight Joshua. If one of those fights has to happen, in the near future. I would expect Deontay Wilder to challenge Joshua before Tyson Fury. The reason why I say this is because? People need to give Wilder credit, for fighting both Joseph Parker and Zhilei Zhang while he was clearly working through a challenging time in his career. And even historically during Deontay Wilder's career, it was Wilder who chased and forced the second and third fights vs Tyson Fury. The main reason why there was a trilogy between Fury and Wilder, was because of Deontay Wilder's competitive ambition to beat Tyson Fury'.

Tyson Fury has never shown that type of competitiveness 'He has only taken fights when he really had to, and many times during his career he has deliberately avoided or sabotage fights. Tyson Fury never followed through with his scheduled rematch vs Wladimir Kiltschko, unfortunately due to his then circumstance. Fury never made the rematch with Franis Ngannou after being beaten in their first fight. Tyson Fury sabotaged two fights vs both Oleksandr Uysk and Anthony Joshua. Firstly against Joshua in late 2022, and then against Oleksandr Uysk in April 2023'.

There has never ever been a more easier time in the history of the sport 'To make Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury, as neither fighter are champions. According to Eddie Hearn, all it would take is one phone call to make the fight. But once again? In my opinion Tyson Fury has retired in part to avoid fighting Anthony Joshua. Immediately after the second Fury vs Uysk II fight, I stated that I would not be surprised if Tyson Fury retires as tactical move to get out of fighting Joshua'.

To conclude: Now in the case of Deontay Wilder 'The three Heavyweight Mountains of this era are, Tyson Fury, Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder. Currently right as we speak? Deontay Wilder is in the worst position in his career compared to all there fighters, it has been a very long since he has scored a big win on his resume. And he has lost his last two fights; he was beaten by Parker extremely easily and smashed up by Zhilei Zhang. Even though Wilder is in that position, I still believe he will be potentially more game to fight Anthony Joshua than Tyson Fury'.

There are better and more relevant fights for Anthony Joshua in the Heavyweight division 'In terms of? Measuring his form and building genuine momentum in his career. But the fight vs Deontay Wilder is still an intriguing matchup, and I would imagine great theatre. If Anthony Joshua can smash Deontay Wilder up inside the distance, then that would be a good exercise for him as competitor' etc.

Lies written by a bias fanboy.
Seriously an article of nonsense to fit your narrative in a comments section?? you clearly don't know the truths of any dealings. Please move on to bn24 where you belong... Are you brun xD

Eddie Hearn and the weasel Shelly Finkel have no regards for their fighters safety. They will pimp their fighters for another payday. Both AJ and Wilder are shot fighters. But, if Hearn and Finkel can squeeze another check from their shot fighters, F it, this is what pimps do, send their beaches out to work so Eddie can buy Skye another undeserving fight, while AJ is out cold on the canvass, and Shelly can do his Mister Magu act and kiss his fighter after the fight. What effin scoundrels.

Please don’t tell me Turki’s buying this garbage to add to his collection of horrible fights where fighters run like thieves in the night, while taking a page out of Edfie’s mistress Skye’s hit and run for your life playbook. This from Hearn who has the audacity to talk about fighters not being loyal when he takes Skye out in the town, hides when there’s a camera filming, while his kids get bullied in school for their father being an adulter. Where’s the loyalty to the mother of your kids?

If the 40 year old Wilder looks bad against Herndon this week, Team Joshua will jump at it.
If he throws and connects ala Helenius; expect Matchroom to go silent.
It's just smart business.
