Wilder has had 40 fights with 39 KO. This was AJ's 21th fight. I'm not saying Wilder can beat AJ. I just think he needs 1or 2 more fights to sharpen his skills. AJ knows that a fight with Wilder would bring millions. So I'm thinking AJ didn't want to get caught with anything that would cost him that fight. Just remember this Wilder will not fight like Parker. He is coming to bring it with some real KO power.
