Wilder talks Joshua.

[Ron Swanson]

For clarity since I said Wilder can't force a AJ fight and I said he has no option he must wait, I did not mean he should sit idle. I meant wait on that fight. I'd love to see him take a tough fight, I just don't expect it.

My problem is this fight has already been talked about a long time. But it was "let them become champions first" from a business perspective that makes sense. But from a wanting to see the fight perspective, no fight.

Then it was it needs to build.

Then Klit fight, great business move, no fight though.

Then it was Klit rematch and Pulev, then we will.

Now it is Pulev and another fight then we will. We are no closer to the fight. Earlier Eddie was "I want a Wilder fight in 2017" now it is Pulev and another fight. We are 2/3 of the way through 2017 and 2 more fights before a AJ/Wilder fight by their opinion. That means we would be lucky to see it in 2018 at the rate people fight.

And it's delayed under the false pretense that these 2 fights between are necessary. They aren't. They make sense for money, if the safest route to money is the goal. For a promoter, sure, for the fighter and his family, sure. But for fans that want to see a fight, no.
