That’s what I thought. Every time I see Wilder fight he is fighting in Alabama or somewhere that isn’t really known for Boxing (not Vegas or the Garden) It’s strange that America have an unbeaten heavyweight champion and nobody gives a fuck about him. I actually like Wilder and there’s no fight I’d rather see happen than him against AJ. It’ll break PPV records over here but it won’t knock Mayweather off the top in America.

They should fight as soon as possible because if the fights good we could always see a rematch. These guys wait too long before fighting each other and that takes away the possibility of them fighting multiple times. Parker isn’t a factor for me,
I think Povetkin and Ortiz would both stop him.
You could be right but he does have a belt, the fight may also be easier to make than Wilder. Funny thing is I think both those guys also stop Wilder.

Well Povetkin had his chance to fight Wilder in Russia but couldn't make it to the fight drug free so that's his problem not Wilders.

Doesn't change the fact that I still feel he KOs Wilder.

I would be glad to see Floyd's record broken so quickly.
I admire your tenacity. Sneaking Floyd into the thread like that! #missinghim #cantlivewithouthim!!! 😂😂😂
It also sounds like he is actively applauding the PPV model

I am not. No fight should be ppv, it is evil.

But you still want the Boxers to earn good money! Priceless.😂
They can earn that through endorsements and advertising being on mainstream TV.

Fucking clueless. So Carl Froch can make £10million out of fairy liquid ads can he?
Now you're just embarrassing yourself.
Henry Cooper did it.
Re: Before Wilder/Joshua...
I'm against PPV and not afraid to say it. Why is it that the goalposts have been moved and now it's ok to charge money for what used to be free? How did boxers before PPV make their money? Why is it acceptable that boxers should make hundreds of millions of dollars (that's where we're headed) for a single fight? PPV is shit. It's a cancer that's only going to spread, as football and baseball and other mainstream sports are certainly eyeing it as a way for multi-millionaires to line their pockets with even MORE money. I know we must change with the times, but we get shafted and complain for awhile... then just accept it as business as usual. Haven't we all noticed that PPV is spreading to other fights that didn't used to be PPV-worthy? It's as plain as day. This is why when threads get started about how much money so-and-so made in his last fight, or how much he's made over his career, I just tune out. That kind of money is incomprehensible to most of us, so why does it matter? We're sheep, plain and simple.

£10 million??? More like 10 grand. Fighters were exploited way more back then.
Taking into account inflation that would be the same.

As much as I think Bowe peaked in roughly 2 or 3 fights I don't think Wilder is fit to fold his shorts. In 6 yrs and same same amount of wins Bowe was essentially done, but compared to Wilder he fought very good competition. Sometimes ;D. The Dokes fight was a shat show gimme for the hometown New York bwoy but he did agree to fight top ranked Mercer. Before Mercer went all whispering into the ear of Fergusson and blew the opportunity of a lifetime. Enter Fergusson on a technicality.
Crap so I had to check myself...Wilder v Ortiz is a done deal! Have to credit both for stepping up there. Finally!
Re: Before Wilder/Joshua...
I can't envisage Wilder making it out the 2nd round against Bowe. Well maybe he could last into the nah...
