..........Joshua's team are begging for the fight.

https://fightnews.com/wilder-joshua-cam ... ight/36081

What is it Wilder, are they begging for it or don't they want it.

Make your mind up

The fact that Joshua's team are more keen on making the Wilder fight than a Fury fight means Wilder has a very strong hand negotiating the Fury rematch and will no doubt get the lion's share of the split again.

Unless Fury just says 'f**k it' and walks away from the table. Which could well happen.

Wonder how this will all play out..

Most likely seeing Joshua v whyte II first

Do you still think Joshua is trying to avoid Wilder?

He probably saw enough from the Fury fight to grow some balls.

I think theyll mess about for a long time and be a bit diva'ish before making the fight , but hopefully I'm wrong & team Joshua is begging for the bout

I guarantee AJ ain’t scared of fighting anybody. If there was anybody worth being scared about it was a 40
Year old Klitschko, who is 100 times the boxer Wilder is. They took that fight when really it made little sense to do so. He could have lost it all in that fight.

It’s all business unfortunately.

Well he can't acuse AJ of ducking him now

Joshua wants that belt, pure and simple.
His goal has always been to get all the belts, right from when he turned pro. He has also always said at one time he is going to lose and isn't bothered by it.
Take that as you will. But I don't think there is any ducking on the Joshua side. I do think there is an essence of greed and protectiveness on the Wilder side.

I will wait until anythings officially announced before giving a single flying fornicate.

I think AJ has always fancied it, I think those around him were worried though, after last week I think they probably all fancy it, just get the fight on now and then Fury can box the ears off the winner next summer.

He’d beat the shite out of both outside the ring, at the same time probably.
No idea why he’d fear either in the ring.

Did Fury fear Price and Ustinov? He bottled them fights apparently.

You dont half chat some shit about Joshua.

The pull-out from the Ustinov fight was because Hughie Fury's health made a turn for the worst and died. Hughie was Tyson's uncle and trainer. It's excusable. No fear there.

As for Price... Lol... Even in 2013 Fury accomplished more than Price in the pros, and Price got exposed against Thompson back to back. If Fury fought the man a couple of times in the amateurs, I don't see where there'd be any fear there, and that's when Tyson was a teenager and Price a grown man.

Eddie Hearn confirmed that the $50m offer was genuine.
Barry Hearn tweeted about Joshua turning down $50m.
It was the biggest duck in boxing history.

An obscene amount to turn down, for sure!

Joshua waited until Wlad was 41.

LMAO! I've heard Chicken Bowe, how about Chicken AJ? (I'm sure he's not ducking, only being managed to money and not legacy)

AJ fought him in his 19th fight, at the age of 27? It should have been Fury but . . .

A valiant defence of AJ. But Tyson was actually younger when he beat Klitschko in Germany.
Obviously Wlad was younger and unbeaten for over a decade

Because the other guy was being greedy with the purse split?

Wtfever. They fought. It was a tremendous battle.

Don’t get all bunched, AJ and Fury will be fighting, unless Tyson relapses on one or more fronts.
