Heavy weight contender Deontay Wilder said he saw a nervous energy from division rival Anthony Joshua last month when the two former champions attended a press conference in Saudi Arabia to announce the ‘Day of Reckoning and#039; to the map. Joshua will clash with top contender Otto Wallin on December 23 in Riyadh, while Wilder will face another former champion, Joseph Parker. If Wilder and Joshua win their fight, it is possible that they will meet next in 2024.
At a recent press conference, Wilder remained calm while other fighters — including Jarrell Miller and Wallin — waged a war of words with Joshua. “I think I shocked a lot of people when I came [to the press conference] with a cool, calm and collected attitude. But that and I’ll be all day. Everything has its time and place and this was not the time and place to go all out and#039;I was waiting for you AJand#039; or say something like Jarrell Miller said. I didn’t have to say anything, everyone said what they needed to, especially Jarrell Miller. I can’t stand him for a second, but he told the truth about AJ andquot; Wilder said. andquot;When he said what he said, enough was said.
I didn’t have to come to AJ. It seemed that many other guys were already coming to him. He never seems to have had any respect. A lot of prospective guys don’t respect her and don’t say anything to her. And I think it’s frustrating for him to go from one mindset — everybody respects him — to losing a couple of times and now everybody thinks you’re very beatable and we can beat you. , so we will talk to you and contact you. andquot;I got it from his [show]. But for me, he was nervous.
Nervous when it comes to me because they don’t know how I’m doing. They don’t know how I am in different situations, so when I came like that, it really upset him. And that shocked a lot of people. I wish AJ the best, but it’s been a long time between me and him; the anticipation, the hype, this is the number one fight in the world. andquot;Where I go, that and#039; is the main struggle people ask me about and one day it will finally happen after all these years of trying again and again.
Recently, their side admitted that they had this fight. not charging $50 million, low commissions, fixed fees and all. But with patience and time, the truth will reveal itself, and it has. Heand has to get Wall and Iand#039;parker out of the way and God be with us in those battles and if we come out safe, let the big plays begin.
