...you can't help feeling none of the top 3 is anxious to fight each other for WHATEVER reason..
Wilder and Fury both know exactly why they're not eager to do it again. They both almost lost. Wilder by Decision, Fury by Knockout. They're both nervous, and feel they need to improve I'm sure. Hell I wouldn't be crazy about diving right back in there with a guy that gave me hell either if I'm being honest. I don't think most of us would.

Is Wlad seriously going to unretire for a one off shot against Wilder?
Not so much as a tune up?
I’ll believe that when I see it.
Did I miss something? Who mentioned Wlad vs Wilder?
reported hes on a deal for breazeale, wlad, then ortiz 2
Hmm...that'd be interesting if so. Looks like they're wanting Ortiz to get older, and less dangerous before fighting him again I'd rather see AJ fight Ortiz in the meantime like he's discussed.
If Wlad is gonna comeback and fight any of the Big 3, then Wilder is the most interesting possible opponent.
I thought the mentioning of Klitschko’s name was merely an unsubstantiated rumour? Has there been an official announcement confirming Wladimir’s plans?

There are some sparring videos of Kownacki and Miller over on YouTube. Its just sparring but Kownacki seems to outwork Miller. They are best friends though, so they aren't really trying to hurt each other. Check them out.

So this will be going up against the Usyk and Povetkin fights in Chicago on the same night.
Too bad Kownacki won’t be on that card, not that I’d expect him to fight either guy. He’d do well in Chicago

I'll watch it but I'm not overly excited about the opponent.
Sounds like Wilder and Fury are lining up easy win opponents before the rematch.
Question is where does this leave Anthony Joshua in terms of future foes.
Hardly like the division is bustling with talent, the Miller fight hasn't exactly got me pumped up and with Fury v Wilder 2 sure to be the next bout after who does Joshua have in mind that will buy him some respect points.
Fury/Wilder rematch has a long wait as Wilder's Showtimes deal if for three fights, Breazeale, Wlad, and TBA on third with likelihood of Ortiz rematch. UGH! We may see AJ/Fury before Wilder/Fury rematch.
Who say's Wilder v Wlad is signed ?

Hearn offered both Fury and Wilder 40% to fight Joshua. Wembley Stadium was booked in the Summer for the following Spring for the express purpose of hosting Joshua v Wilder. 40% Let's say they share $100m so Joshua gets $60m and Wilder gets $40m, Joshua gets nearly double his biggest payday and Wilder gets 4 X his biggest and what, 15 X his next biggest, with a guaranteed rematch clause. Still he doesn't want to know.
How is any of this Joshua's fault?

Dominic Breazeale was so thankful, he mailed William Deets a few tokens of his appreciation.
Once Deets knocked out Marsellos Wilder on January 26, Breazeale sent Deets shirts, sweatpants and a hat that bear Breazeale’s nickname, “Trouble.” Breazeale wants to take out Deets for a steak dinner, too.
That’s how much Breazeale enjoyed the journeyman’s fourth-round, technical-knockout of Deontay Wilder’s younger brother. Breazeale’s beef with Marsellos Wilder stems from the melee Breazeale believes Marsellos Wilder incited two years ago in the lobby of a Birmingham hotel.
“Oh man, I was so excited,” Breazeale told BS.com. “I was so excited that I sent ‘Trouble’ gear to his opponent’s home. I wanted to take him out to dinner, buy him a steak. For me, that was so bittersweet because, you know, karma, it happens. It’s gonna come full circle. For him to punch me in the back of the head, and me have to think about that on a daily basis, as a man, that’s degrading, right? And the fact, on top of that, is like you hit me in the back of the head – I don’t know if I punch you, well, she punches you in the back of the head, you go down, you probably stay down, right?
“I got back up to fight and I see this dude high-tailing it the hell out of here, right? So, I mean, if you’re gonna throw a punch, at least stick around and see, give me a shot to get a rebuttal, right? So, it was beautiful. It was beautiful that I got the news of that. I watch it and watch it. I walk into the game room of my house, and it’s highlighted. It just runs on a reel, him getting knocked out. It’s a beautiful thing.”

Nah, sorry Jammy.
I did see the fight, laughed my arse off too!
I didn't know it was not available- maybe it is trying to be "disappeared ".
