Comments Thread For: Hearn Cautions That Joshua Will Not Wait Forever For Wilder Fight Contract

[Hands of Stone]

In other words, Hearn is still full of sh.it. How do you keep telling us the fight with Deontay is next for the better part of 6 months when you haven't even seen commitment from your Financier. Why can't he just wait till proof of funds is there, all parties have committed before always jumping the gun? Something is fishy here. Either this is typical Hearn smoke screen or he is probably trying to squeeze them for some ridiculous money that they fight isn't worth and they are saying 'No thanks'. Dude is losing credibility fast.

Bum Squad will probably retire if he can't cash out against AJ. He's 37 years old with a dented skull and was KTFO in 2 of his last 3 fights.

I won't call his Bum Squad but it is surprising that Wilder has been sitting on the shelf this long even after been on the shelf longer before that. Looks to me his heart is no longer in it esp after that crying and meltdown after beating Helenius and just ready to cash out at this point

If Wilder doesn't fight Joshua next, then he should fight Ruiz, although he'd have to swallow his pride and give Ruiz more then he deserves. I don't believe Hearn wants Joshua to have a career ending fight against Wilder as that would end the money-train.

Wilder "Bum Squad?" AJ's a joke and he much rather fight someone in the no name, useless European boxing circuit. If Hearn is serious, he'll make sure the money is there and the contract is in place. If not, look for Joshua to fight another rum-dum, zero skill fighter. If Joshua fights Fury or Wilder, it will be lights out for AJ and his last big money fight. Then, he can retire and construct his body building gym.

Why is it Hearn's job to do that?

If Wilder is such a big star now, why doesn't his team set up a fight with AJ?

Don't mind that Hearn hater. Since when does promoters force people to organise a bout? Some folks just write anything and think that they make sense.

Absoutely no need to fight Ruiz again unless it's a mando or an ordered elminator. Odd name to throw out there.

Spoken like a true Non-Sportsman. They are 1-1. There is every reason in the world to do a tie-breaker. Wow, you must be a fan-girl scared that AJ may get dropped again. It would be a good fight (as long as Ruiz shows up in decent shape).

Clowns in the game like to use terms like "definitely happening", "all sides have agreed", etc. PREMATURELY. Then look like complete buffoons when there are delays, or changes of plan, changes in financing, changes of heart, unforseen incidents that affect a fight, etc.

These same buffoons (rhymes with unsteady) then proceed to repeat same simpleton behavior again and again, with little children trying to defend them every time they end up with their foot in their mouth. It's a ridiculous unnecessary turnoff to getting fights made, and a major reason that Boxing has so much trouble getting accepted as a main stream, major sport.

Buffoons should learn to keep their mouth shut until fights are made, contracts are signed, and things are a go. Impossible to do when you are trying to make it all about you (and not the fight).

Did Lewis need to fight Rahman a 3rd time to seal his legacy? No.

It's not soccer. It's not tennis. It's not 1-1.

Joshua went in as champion, got shocked, and then avenged the defeat in a rematch. Went in as champion, came out as champion. Happens all the time and it's job done.

The only reason for a Ruiz trilogy is if there's no-one else to fight.
