I'd love it if Wilder got done by Breazeale.
This cant be PPV as no cunts gonna buy it.

Not defending Wilder, but to be fair Whyte is also someone AJ smashed years ago. I don’t think he’s as improved as everyone seems to think. There was talk of whyte vs Brezeale a while ago, I thought that was a good match up in itself. Only way Wilder doesn’t look real bad coming out of this is if he bowls over Brezeale and then manages to land an AJ fight with an equal or better offer, hard ask going with a different network

Only thing I didn’t get about the deal he was offered was 2 out of 3 fights being against the same guy for the same money. That doesn’t make any sense, it’s almost assuming the first fight would be highly competitive and affect neithers stock for the worse, which is extremely unlikely here.

Blaming rematch options is pathetic (Dillian Whyte did it) as the chances of one are minimal (it's just a par for the course "a-side" privilege). In the history of boxing how many rematches actually take place, especially immediate ones?

If Wilder seriously thought he could win he wouldn't be worrying about getting short-changed (40 million+upside) for a fucking rematch (as though Joshua's own worth totally evaporates with a loss. Ridiculous).

Team Wilder have done a great job in conning fans into thinking Joshua and Wilder are equal value. Their new excuse is - we turned down $120 million because DAZN didn't say how much Joshua gets. Pathetic.

Hearn lifts the lid on that Wilder/DAZN meeting.

I will take him in at a CW of 175 for just a million.

He will probably duck you for a more lucrative offer.

After he beats his mandatory he can auction his title to the highest bidder.

With Fury and AJ competing for his belt he is guaranteed millions. It is a risky game he has played but it may pay off.
