WBC heavyweight king Deontay Wilder is not, as fans have likely read, coming to Cardiff on Saturday to watch and provide punditry duties on the big Anthony Joshua-Joseph Parker three-title unification showdown. AJ promoter Eddie Hearn did not mince his words upon being told Wilder would not be attending – suggesting in his own colorful manner how Wilder had basically suffered a bad case of nerves upon finding out that Dillian Whyte – the fighter Hearn sometimes seems desperate to have Wilder fight – would also be in attendance in Cardiff; “breathing down his [Wilder’s] neck,” as Hearn put it when speaking with iFLTV.
