Sunkyphil: U don't follow Boxing News bros... Wilder rejected $100 million DAZN's offer to face Joshua last Month... That's more than 30 times the highest he ever got in his career. |

tribalistseun:Every fighter has his time. They know it. This is not football that you go one season unbeaten. Even the greatest had his time. Go and watch Ali's last fight see how he was severely whupped. 1 Like |

tribalistseun:Hahaha. His records are questionable. There are some fights people believed he was supposed to lose. Apart from him the only other fighter that went unbeaten was Rocky Marciano and that one died prematurely in his prime. Stats dont lie my friend. The only way AJ will stay unbeaten is if he retires now |

They never disappoint. I knew they would give us another shitty fight. Of course, Joshua would win this easily. Ruiz is not a bad hitter, but he is an overall horribly poor fighter. Why didn't they shortlist Fury? Assuming Wilder has his hands full, why was Fury never shortlisted? Since there is no obvious pattern anymore, why not ask Fury? Heavyweight boxing has gone to the dogs. |

Noel1: No one is avoiding him. Wilder has a fight for May, and Luis Ortiz was ready to rumble but his promoter went behind the back of he and his trainer to demand more money from Hearn (Joshua's promoter). Hearn had the opportunity to reconsider from two days ago, but they would rather fight fatboy Ruiz who is Parker's leftover. Nonsense!!! Fury is free, and even though he might not want to take such a fight on short notice, they could have at least shortlisted him. But no, they don't want Fury. It is very obvious that Ruiz just wants the money. In my opinion, the American debut can wait. I wonder who would watch that fight. |
Re: Andy Ruiz Jr. Is Anthony Joshua Opponent For New York Bout by BluntBoy(m): 1:52pm On Apr 30, 2019 |
Noel1: He was never offered 100 million dollars to fight Joshua. The money was meant to cover three fights. |
Re: Andy Ruiz Jr. Is Anthony Joshua Opponent For New York Bout by Jaqenhghar: 1:52pm On Apr 30, 2019 |
Noel1:Bro Im not doubting you or your sourcesi. Im sayin I read this. I have read different stories too. These days you just wonder what is the truth |
Re: Andy Ruiz Jr. Is Anthony Joshua Opponent For New York Bout by Nobody: 1:54pm On Apr 30, 2019 |
BluntBoy: Check ur facts right bro... 1. The $100 million offer from DAZN didn't prevent Wilder from fighting his mandatory (Breazeale). DAZN offered him $20 Million for his Breazeale fight and $80 million for 2 fights against Joshua - his career highest ever. Wilder turned it down and went ahead to sign a peanut contract with Showtime for his Breazeale fight. 2. Fury is not free. He signed an £80 million contract with ESPN in Feb... 1 Like |

BluntBoy: $20 million to fight Brezeale $80 million to fight Joshua twice... Can you tell me Wilder's biggest purse since he started fighting? $14 million against Fury 1 Like |
Re: Andy Ruiz Jr. Is Anthony Joshua Opponent For New York Bout by BluntBoy(m): 1:59pm On Apr 30, 2019 |
Noel1: You are the one who ought to check your facts. You initially said 100 million dollars to fight Joshua. Now, you are mentioning 80 million dollars. |
Re: Andy Ruiz Jr. Is Anthony Joshua Opponent For New York Bout by Nobody: 2:07pm On Apr 30, 2019 |
BluntBoy: Sorry... but I say things the way they are... I'm no AJ fan - but I hate when peepz flay the guy 4 failure of the unification fight, even when its obvious he's tried his best while the other guy is scared sh.it of loosing his single belt. |
Re: Andy Ruiz Jr. Is Anthony Joshua Opponent For New York Bout by BluntBoy(m): 2:08pm On Apr 30, 2019 |
Noel1: Don't look at factors like that. Look at the percentage. How much would Joshua be pulling off the fight? Would the differences suggest a lowering of standards on Wilder's part. If you like, give Wilders 100 million dollars to fight a Joshua who goes home with 300 million dollars, then Wilder (a belt holder) would be lowering himself to the standards of people like Miller who have no belts, and are mere mandatories. |

Re: Andy Ruiz Jr. Is Anthony Joshua Opponent For New York Bout by BluntBoy(m): 2:12pm On Apr 30, 2019 |
Noel1: I understand, bro. But we can't be sure that Wilder is scared. When you offer a deal, it is only normal for the person being offered to know the overall package. The world wants to see a Joshua/Wilder fight. Even though I don't agree with Wilder that it should be 50/50 before it can happen, but Wilder should get enough from the deal. What is 40 million dollars if it is just 30% of the total money for a fight that the world wants to see? Wilder deserves special attention abeg. He may be overrated, but the world wants to see him fight Joshua and they will pay any amount to see the fight happen. |
Re: Andy Ruiz Jr. Is Anthony Joshua Opponent For New York Bout by BluntBoy(m): 2:16pm On Apr 30, 2019 |
Noel1: It is not the number of belts Wilder has. The reality is that Wilder's belt is the only thing stopping Joshua from becoming the Undisputed Champion of the World. It is a very important belt because it is the only belt left for Joshua to make history. If you have 9 kobo but need 1 kobo more to be able to afford a sandal, that 1 kobo would become very important and the person that has that 1 kobo would be very important as well. |
Re: Andy Ruiz Jr. Is Anthony Joshua Opponent For New York Bout by Nobody: 2:28pm On Apr 30, 2019 |
BluntBoy: I get that but.... 1. The fight is more risky for Joshua, with 3 belts on the line than it is for Wilder. So, it doesn't even sound well to demand a 50/50 split purse. 2. If he believes he can beat Joshua like he had always touted, then what stopped him 4rm taking the fight, knocking him spark out - and then becoming free to set his own purse after? 1 Like 1 Share |

Re: Andy Ruiz Jr. Is Anthony Joshua Opponent For New York Bout by BluntBoy(m): 2:35pm On Apr 30, 2019 |
Noel1: Bro, it is not about the number of belts In a unification bout, number of belts don't matter. What matters is unification. AJ wants Wilder's 1 belt. Wilder wants AJ's 3 belts. Winner takes all. How is it riskier for AJ? It is not like AJ is fighting a mandatory who has nothing to lose like Miller. |
Re: Andy Ruiz Jr. Is Anthony Joshua Opponent For New York Bout by Nobody: 2:36pm On Apr 30, 2019 |
Sunkyphil: Joshua isn't interested in that fight |
Re: Andy Ruiz Jr. Is Anthony Joshua Opponent For New York Bout by BluntBoy(m): 2:38pm On Apr 30, 2019 |
Noel1: You can't remove business from sport, bro. Even if he can beat AJ easily, it doesn't mean he should portray himself as cheap. |
Re: Andy Ruiz Jr. Is Anthony Joshua Opponent For New York Bout by Nobody: 2:46pm On Apr 30, 2019 |
BluntBoy: Sorry but U're wrong bro Yes, Boxing is about the number of belts. The more titles u have on the line, the more muscles you can flex at the negotiation table. That's the way it is. You can dig more on that... 1 Like |
