I think it's the gladiatorial style skirt that does it.
Bullshitus Maximus.

He's my age. Why doesn't my body look like that?

If Wilder don't fight AJ until March/April and Ruiz is pricing himself out, who's in the PBC stable for him to fight? Sanchez? Charles Martin? Ortiz III?
Sanchez would make for an interesting fight, and he's not asking for a lot of money.
Martin would be an easier opponent though.

Time to file Joshua-Wilder away under great fights that never happened. Where both go from here is anyone's guess.

I'd be more shocked to see him back in a ring again at this rate.

After the fight tonight, what do you think of a fight with Francis Ngannou ?
He is never getting the Joshua fight for the same reason he didn't get it 5 years ago.
He is never getting a fight against Ruiz because the guy is unconsistent and doesn't look like he's interested in Boxing anymore.
He isn't getting a fight against Usyk any day.
And having fights with other guys from the top 10 ( Zhang, Dubois, Bakole or Joyce) seem counter-productive considering he doesn't have much years left in the top-level.
A fight against Ngannou will be very easy to promote too

Wilder is planning on fighting that UFC guy that just lost to the Blob or Scottie Barnes of the Raptors. Then there's this char woman in Melbourne that's been trash talking him....

Don't care, tbh.
He is one of the worst 'Heavyweight Champs' in recent times. Abysmally padded record, power is way overrated and he has no skills whatsoever.
He throws only one punch and telegraphs that s*** so badly and so often. He would get 'murdered' in any era that has gone before him.

Reportedly talks already taking place between Wilder and Ngannou. Hearn also chiming in with suggestions of Joshua-Ngannou and referring to it as the 'Rumble In The Jungle 2' :lol:

Good grief, they all want a piece of Ngannou now.
How frustrating it must be for the likes of Ruiz, Hrgovic, Zhang, Sanchez etc who are all looking for a shot at the big time and you've got the top guys potentially chasing a fight with a 1 fight novice!
What has happened to the sport of boxing?

Wilder and Joshua better get their fight made because Fury-Usyk is likely to be in February and when you take into account the 2 way rematch clause, that will be a full dance card for Fury and Usyk in 2024.

I would retire if I was him and meanwhile keep talking about 100M dollar fights and stuff, a bit like Lennox Lewis, he also knew that he wasn't any good, but just act like it and there will allways be a bunch of idiots who will also act, or even think, you're a somebody.
And if someone actually offers a 100M then great, just take it and give it away on all the hookers you once enjoyed.
No, that's not how it works.
You act like you are somebody and not even the idiots have any use for you.
This is exactly how it works, Lennox Lewis has proven it for a couple of decades now and I'll allways be more usefull then you'll ever be.

Ruiz is liability. We never know if we'll get Joshua I Ruiz or Joshua 2 Ruiz. He certainly doesn't want to risk anything. He's a former champion and a very rich.
Zhang is an elder man that moves like a 50 years old George Foreman but without the punching power.
I genuinely don't know who that "Sanchez" guy is.
Ngannou is where the money is right now and can't blame them for pursuiting that when we see the absolute jokes of heavyweight championship fights we got from Usyk and Fury recently.
And even then if all Fury has to do to win is get on the backfoot to get a BS decision and Usyk to fake being hurt by a blow. It's understandable that fans what the MMA guy to clean up the mess.

Hasn't fought for a year now. And coming off 2 ko losses before that.
Should really be against AJ.
V Ngannou would be interesting as well.
Or retire, can't blame him. Is rich and took a couple of bad beatings.

Wilder is not rich?
This is a crazy point of view, i dont know what his hobbies are but unless he gambles very badly wilder is rich...
Wilder is probably in the top 5 highest earning boxers of the last 5 years, even with his inactivy. Caenlo, AJ, Fury and have made more.... But I dont know if i can think of anyone else that has outearned him in pro boxing. Mabey usyk and GGG too i guess, mabey.
Regardless of if you can find a few more higher earners, Wilder is rich as fuK

Even if they have only got it half right and his fortune is $15,000,000 that's plenty rich.

Damn I just checked it up. He has 8 children by 4 women.
He still has a ways to go to catch Holyfield who has 11 by 6 different women.

having a shiteload of kids and being a generous spender are the quickest ways to blow fortunes. that can be an absolutely massive chunk of your dough taken. and when you have as much as wilder, they take much bigger amounts. doesnt seem right to me that they should be getting lavish amounts way beyond what's needed to live comfortably.
didnt evander make like 200m or something, and still end up with money problems? crazy how much money some dudes blow. some it's not even the kids, but spending absolutely f@ck nuts way too much on everything - cars, necklaces, and all that sh!t. i cant remember who it was, maybe broner? showing off a 1 million dollar chain that just looked like any other chain out there. had like another million combined on his hands, his belt, etc. crazy
andy ruiz is doing the same thing now, got a whole f@cking fleet of luxury cars and boats, showing off 250k a piece jewelry, mansions, shelling out money on dozens of hangers on etc. maybe some people come up thinking the way to manage your money is to spend all of it

He would fit that Bridgerweight class well. I find it funny that the WBC invited him to fight for it and he passed it up lol. He could do it just to say he's a 2 weight champion I suppose lol.
