Joshua to Wilder: "We set the date, it's set! We are ready to sign"

Wilder accepts $15m for November date Wilder declines $15m for April date. There's only 5 months difference. So what's the problem? #1 - He only accepted the 15M for November because he believed Hearn was bluffing and he wanted to call his bluff. #2 - Hearn says April will be a much bigger fight. It's a bigger venue. DAZN will have way more subscribers. Why should the money stay the same?

The B-side will never sign doe. He wants 50/50. He'd rather fight a nobody for $1 mil.

Rooting for Povetkin getting the upset.

I hope you're getting a check from Match Room or Deez nuts. The flat fee ship sailed

Sign the contract and let's see that fight.

Wilder accepts $15m for November date Wilder declines $15m for April date. There's only 5 months difference. So what's the problem? The fight doesn't grow THAT much in that time. And Hearn does have substance to his claim that Joshua raises his profile more than Wilder does in their next 2 fights and therefore Wilder isn't deserving of a pay rise. Surely all boxing fans want to see the fight. Wilder could even get $20m + shot at all the belts over the next 9 months if he takes a tune up first. This ain't no Mayweather/Pac or Mayweather/McGregor shyt that's gonna build. Wilder is appears to be a dislikeable guy who nobody takes seriously and Joshua rarely trash talks. The public on either side of the pond aren't going to get so hyped about this as people think. I know nobody over here in the UK is talking about Wilder in the media outlets. They haven't seen him fight anyone. AJ's profile isn't going to be raised in his next fight. Nobody in the US cares about him or knows who he is. Nobody tuned in to see him fight on Showtime in the US and he's going to get even less views with DAZN. All Hearn and AJ talk about is Wilder to get attention, it would be hilarious if Povetkin ends up beating AJ. Wilder isn't signing no contract for a fight in April when AJ has Povetkin in front of him. Maybe after their fights, then they can start talking again.

So he's ready to sign now for an April fight but didn't sign the contract that was sent over to Wilder for this year, a contract with no date and venue? Funny thing is AJ went missing after he asked for 50 million and they called him on it. Pretty sure Hearn wasn't too happy and told him to shut up. Now that he has a fight signed to fight someone else, he magically re appears. Whatever contract and offer was given to Wilder, he agreed only if it was to fight this year. He isn't going to be accepting the same deal.

Wilder won’t sign Joshua The guy has ducked Klitschko and whyte Both Guys you knocked out Oh and also went to court to refuse to fight the guy you will knock out Lol Wilder is all talk, the internet champion is all he is. He has like 10 fans and couple of the idiots post here spreading fake news but the world knows wilder is a coward who refused to sign to fight

I'm just glad we get to see AJ in big fights despite the fiasco.

Wilder won't sign. He'll just continue to flap his gums whilst pricing himself out of the fight. Nothing to see here.

I wonder if he's as "ready to sign" as he was for the $50M... Joshua vs Miller, Spring 2019

So he's admitting to the problem that existed which held up the fight :boxing: "Now we'll let you know when the proposed fight is supposed to happen"....Hearn/AJ just suck, amateurs on the "big stage", their lack of experience is showing:boxing:

Anthony Joshua to Wilder: "We set the date, it's set! We are ready to sign" The old deal is no longer holds water, especially with the American press already turning on him/DAZN and the IBF mandatory coming due before Joshua's spring date. If Joshua wants to keep to his plan, "his race" if you will, he's going to have to now come forward with a deal that gets Deontay Wilder to the UK to hold his April date, or pay Pulev to abandon the notion of setting up in Bulgaria. Or vacate the IBF belt to avoid Pulev, after he's avoided the Wilder fight, and hope beyond hope that the British public buys into the Whyte rematch as some highly anticipated fight (because the rest of the world won't).

dude quit with the aj shilling, wilder isnt signing the same contract that he was offered while the fight gets even bigger

Never trust a champion that says he is willing to sign for a fight before he actually wins the one he has in front of him. These guys are not going to get Finkel to agree to a deal that doesn't get Wilder the most amount of money. If he did he wouldn't be doing his job. man.. the mental gymnastics in this post... via GIPHY
