Wilder Sets His Sights on Undisputed Title Fight
Deontay Wilder has seemingly poured cold water on the prospect of fighting Anthony Joshua next. The long-time rivals will both be in action on a Christmas cracker of a card in Saudi Arabia on December 23, taking on Joseph Parker and Otto Wallin respectively. Saudi boxing chiefs are seemingly hoping both men get through their respective challenges and take part in a mouthwatering face-off to promote their long-overdue showdown. However, Wilder intends to fight the winner of Tyson Fury's eagerly-anticipated undisputed showdown with Oleksandr Usyk next.
Wilder: "If You've Got All the Belts, You're Gonna Have to Fight Me"
During an appearance on The Last Stand Podcast, the former WBC heavyweight champion said, "If you've got all the belts, you're gonna have to fight me. That's still my goal - wipe out the entire division."
Wilder Not Confident in Joshua's Promoter
Wilder is all too happy to face Joshua should the opportunity to face the winner of Fury vs Usyk fail to come to fruition. Although he doesn't foresee AJ's long-time promoter and friend Eddie Hearn greenlighting their grudge match. The Bronze Bomber told The Last Stand: "He don't want that fight because he's not confident in his product. Joshua is the only money-making fighter Matchroom has. They don't wanna see their business fall to the likes of me, someone that can end someone's career."
