People with no idea of the malicious rivalry between these two are talking. The truth is that Wilder is fucking and have ducked every real opponent. The only credible fight on his CV is grandpa Ortiz. AJ and UK is where the money is, and everyone knew what went down... Wilder will make more in the fight with AJ than he has made in his last 7 fights even if he loses, so... Whyte have called Wilder out severally and he ducked white claiming that "kings don't chase peasants..." But is taking a fight against punching bag Breazle, who AJ used as a training equipment. Beyonce Wilder needs to better his CV with real fights and not fight cab drivers and Kebab owners.
don't mind people Wilder's CV is there on wiki no real tough or rated opponents,people just talk talk,Wilder is not even a mandatory fight for AJ so why would he go out of his way to fight him,Wilder should fight Dillian Whyte first if he's not scared.

Tyson Fury has labelled Anthony Joshua a disgrace for not reaching an agreement to fight Deontay Wilder in the United States.

Joshua holds the International Boxing Federation (IBF), World Boxing Association (WBA), World Boxing Organization (WBO) and International Boxing Organisation (IBO) heavyweight titles, but failed to reach a deal with WBC champion Wilder for a fight which would have unified the divisions’ belts.

Instead Joshua will take on Russia’s Alexander Povetkin, a mandatory challenger, on September 22 at Wembley as his next opponent after defeating Joseph Parker recently.

And Fury thinks Joshua is scared of fighting the American and believes the heavyweight division deserves better from their champion.

“I think it’s such a sad time for heavyweight boxing because you’ve got the so-called super champion and golden boy, Anthony Joshua, and he is avoiding Deontay Wilder and will not fight him at any cost,” Fury said in a video posted to Twitter.

“If you’re not going to fight someone for £40million, you’re not going to fight him for anything. It’s a disgrace and he’s a disgrace to boxing.

“And I think it needs somebody good enough to step up and take on the challenges and not be afraid – not be afraid to take risks and go to people’s backyards and do it.”

The wild wilder is afraid of coming to fight in the UK hence, the refusal of Joshua to go to US. If wilder isn't afraid of defeat, he should accept to fight in the UK. After all, he claims he's the oga of all. He shouldn't be scared. Joshua is a guy who doesn't feel bothered about the media hypes. He just wants to do his thing whenever he feels it's right, going by his antecedents. He never said he won't fight wilder, he can always do that after the sept 22nd fight.

You don't know a thing about boxing. Ortiz has a longer reach than wilder. Ortiz has a reach of 84" while wilder had a reach of 83". I hate it when casuals think they know alot about a sport they don't watch. Height doesn't matter in boxing that much, it's your reach.

Mike Tyson was short but he knocked down gaints.

Dude, I should say you are the one who is clueless about boxing. I watched the fight and I can tell you wilder's height was a massive advantage for him. Tyson and Ortiz do not have the same level of skill. A good boxer would suffer against an equally good but taller boxer. Height in boxing is an advantage anyday,anytime.

I like Nigerians because they don't make research but will be opening their mouth like yoruba people... You will see them shouting wilder will beat Joshua but in reality, they've never watch both of them fight different opponents to know who may win the fight...

It took grace for wilder to beat Ortiz but with Joshua, anyone can carry the day... There's no guarantee for any of them. undecided

Too bad you generalize. Almost 2 years now Wilder had been planning to meet Joshua and he has been avoiding him. DW had made several bold and confident challenge to AJ but his reply had been always mild.

I'm a big fan of AJ so that made me research who Deontay is and why AJ had been avoiding him. I burnt huge data to watch more than 5 of Deontay's fight on YouTube then I know how deadly he is. Since then, I know AJ is not his match

Deontay fights like an animal, he is deadly, bloody and too dangerous. He is even labeled the most dangerous fighter. Deontay doesn't fight just to win, he fights to injure and physically damage his opponents. DW's punches weigh more and it's faster than AJs. DW throw punches like its a sledge hammer.

Joshua isn't as wicked and inhumane like DW. I can categorically tell you that DW will beat Joshua black and blue at the moment, don't know of the future. Joshua knows that fact himself . Thank God his coach and managers are not deceiving him.

Pls try and watch on YouTube too, then compare their fights, you will be scared for AJ. So you better change the notion that everyone saying DW will be AJ doesn't knows what they are saying.

That's what you're supposed to find out on the internet before passing judgement. If you knew about boxing, you would have understood that the factor could be anything including revenue sharing formular.
What did you know about this particular fight besides what we read on this thread? Because I believe that this information from Tyson is not enough to make an informed judgement.
picking weaker opponents is it how he plan to reign for 10yrs AJ you can't hide forever

Joshua will beat Wilder easily. Wilder is not a very good boxer. AJ is a better fighter and has more to lose. Therefore he calls the shots. Not the other way around. grin

Fury is just an envious, frustrated "has-been" who is still battling with his cocaine addiction and mental health issues. Both Wilder and Joshua are undefeated, but Joshua is 5 years younger and he has a good record against aggressive fighters like Wilder as proved against Carlos Takam.

Joshua did not even refuse to fight Wilder, he just decided to postpone the Wilder fight until he fights a mandatory title defence against Alexander Povetkin on 22nd September.

Hmm, wise words.
He has a mandatory match coming up soon. It's better he saves all his energy and concentration on that before fighting for the money.
Whether he wins or loses the fight with Wilder, he will still go home with a couple of millions, at least 5-10milla $$ for the loser.

Sorry, but this is a stupid comment. It is like asking a pastor whether it is 'by force' to preach every Sunday, or a professor whether it is 'by force' to teach his students during school hours. Joshua is a professional boxer; so he must fight.

"It took grace for wilder to beat Ortiz""


He knocked him out (Tko) in the 10th round n the fight was supposed to be tough, both are solid boxers, both are undefeated too. That loss was Ortiz's first and only career loss.

KPOM! That was exactly what I said. For $40m, I will even fight satan himself grin

But I knew that he was gonna duck Wilder. I told colleagues at work that there's no way AJ is going to take on Wilder. Because Wilder is bawler. He fights dirty and AJ isn't good at such fights.

Why do Nigerians always talk like they were raised in horse ranches?

How are fights in the US biased? Wilder never refused fighting Joshua in UK, Joshua is doing the right thing by refusing to fight wilder anywhere, because WIlder will destroy him. If i were Joshua i wouldnt fight Wilder too. Wilder fights like someone possessed and hits like 40Kg per punch. DO you know what that will do to Joshua over 5 rounds?

Fighting Wilder anywhere is too risky

The highest paid fight wilder ever gets in his entire fight isn’t up to $3m while Joshua has earn almost $30m in his last fight.

Joshua will fight wilder if only he will get 70% share of the fight if he wins.
Anything less than that isn’t acceptable.

Thats not the reason go watch wilders fights

If you were joshua even you wouldn't risk fighting that one

Money isnt the cause
