blackrican23 290 Report post Posted August 1 “I believe 100 percent that this fight is going to happen and it’s going to get done. We’re very, very close. Closer than Joshua and me could ever get in a lifetime. It’s definitely gonna happen, there’s no doubt. There’s just a little more work to be done," Wilder told Mike 'Copp' Coppinger of The Ring. https://www.boxingscene.com/wilder-deal-fight-fury-closer-joshua-deal-ever--130506 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

selij 1479 Report post Posted August 7 Hearn said a couple of tiny little snippets during interviews at the Whyte/Parker event that made it clear to me that AJ seems to be the stumbling block now during the AJ/Wilder talks (which appear to be almost dead in the water) whereas Wilder was the villain of the piece originally over the $$$. The devil was in the detail, as the saying goes, and when the dollar moved up to $8m for Wilder it was AJ who threw a wrench into the flywheel. Fury then threw his hat in the ring and I think it was viewed by the Wilder camp as a cakewalk. Fury is anything but fit. The harder fight for Wilder I believe is Whyte but will the Wilder team be wanting to start negotiations again with Hearn's Matchroom for a Whyte deal? Maybe sick of them by now. I think Wilder/Fury gets made for December and I think Wilder wins convincingly. And I still say its slightly too early for AJ to be fighting Wilder. Until he has overcome this R6 switchoff issue. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
