If Eddy says he wants it, it ain't happening. He said they agreed to Fury's offer, it ain't happening. What Eddy wants is a sure thing, lions share, sitting duck. It ain't happening.

He'll be lucky to get AJ back in the ring again.

How about a one fight deal on Showtime? No rematch. No warm up fight on DAZN. Wilder is the A-Side.

Perhaps a joint promotion like the proposed Davis vs Garcia? Obviously this fight is big enough for PPV and would be one of the better action matchups in recent memory. I think it COULD be done.

Hearn clearly has failed in the usa and has always seen himself as having some sort of extreme sense of entitlement towards Deontay wilder. He truly had always believed that he “naturally” should have possession of wilder
