A lot of hatred from posters who were defending Joshua for his $50m duck.
People don't like liars and they have decided Billy is a liar. His ambition is not what they are pulling him up on.
Joshua said he'd fight Wilder in the States for $50m and went back on his word. Some of the posters giving BJS stick were the ones defending AJ.

Dependent on various contract stipulations and so on.

Saunders isn't liked because he's a king sized idiot. FW must be banging his head against a wall with him.

But it isn't about his ambition or word, it is his lying about it.

His hamstring will be cleared up so quickly that he could have a full camp for GGG. Mmmm I smell poo

Joshua would have fought Wilder in the States for $50m but the deal fell apart owing to financing. When a deal falls apart on financing grounds it doesn't take the brains of an archbishop to conclude the original figures touted will not be achieved. Hence a rethink.

No.
Hearn said the bid was legit and it was down to Joshua to accept or decline.
Despite meeting his financial demand, Joshua back-pedalled.

I doubt it. FW came very close to making a mega-fight with him.

Or in other words, he didn't make a mega fight with Saunders, and he's left with his unpopular, inactive arsehole fighter who, as has been said, would struggle to attract flies if he covered himself in shite.

Don't take any notice of doofus. He's one of those who's always calling boxers cowards.

The late Bill Ives was a huge supporter of Billy and his interest in boxing was purely a hobby. Millions of pounds was loose change to him. He's exactly why bn has slowed down.....

This. :TU:

I watched Wazza's IFL interview recently and you could tell by the way his eyes were dancing all over the place that he wasn't telling the whole truth.
You can always tell when Wazza is lying,his lips are moving :lol:
That's true - and the various head and shoulder twitches get worse.

Like most people one here, I have zero sympathy for BJS.

Murray was not an easy fight, but one that I highly fancied Saunders to win - it would have been ideal preparation for a big fight like against GGG later in the year (guess they were worried about cuts/injury?).

Anyway, BJS and his mate are a pair of pricks !
Agree with this, a great prep for a fight with GGG as Murray makes you work and is very durable. The risk of a cut or other injury is always there but you'd just think a busy 12 rounds against a durable work horse who doesn't have KO power would be the better option than fighting the top man in the division without a bout all year? Injuries happen just as frequently in sparring/training for a fight so why not just get the rounds in ffs. The fans who got let down are not even a consideration and I will never buy a ticket for an allegedly show ever again.
