Wilder talks Joshua.

[Master]

The interviewer was leading AJ about building the fight.

AJ said he has to fight Pulev, now that we know Wlad has retired.

[Primo Carnera]

All of this just goes to show how difficult it is when you have multiple belts to make the big fights.
Wlad used to get untold amounts of shit for some of the guys he fought . Now people are realizing that you have an endless stream of mandatories. so what do you do? drop a belt or two? what's the fucking point, the whole idea is to become the undisputed champion and have all the belts. you work hard to get them, then you have to drop them. can't be right, can it?
of course, when it was Wlad he was ducking people, now it's AJ , people have seen the light!
As for Wilder, he can talk as much as he likes, because he knows the fight can't be made just yet. If he wants the fight, and it can't be made yet, you don't fucking whinge and mope about it. go out there and make some decent fights , and if you're good enough, you'll beat these guys and maybe, just maybe, become the "A-Side".

Wilder has to face Stiverne (or give him step aside money) to keep his bogus title.

Joshua tells the truth about his belt situation, Wilder bullshits. Actions speak louder than words.

This is a consequence of
a) there are too many alphabet mickey mouse belts around
b) most of the belt organisations are corrupt and have favoured promoters and fighters
c) heavyweights fight far less frequently so..
d) the risks of losing are financially greater

With respect to point c) look at the difference with MW or SMW! Far more frequent 'world' title fights because they basically box for less money, there are more of them, and with respect to point d) the odd o on their record is not career ending.

That's sorted then.

Well,,, except for the fact that I would be willing wager that a lot of MW's and SMW's have earned a lot higher purses than Wilder.

Probably true but Wilder has, as Joshua, fought a few stiffs on his way there. The MW's and SMW's keep on fighting despite the 0's, and the public will pay because its relatively genuine fights, for example look at Froch,Groves,Eubank, Calzaghe, Benn et al, all Brits who made it in America. Wilder has yet to make a dent in Europe and to be fair Joshua has yet to conquer the US.
