Comments Thread For: Hearn on Joshua-Wilder: My Instruction is To Explore Alternatives Venues

[Hustle]

Somebody is gonna lose if they don't fight each other next and the fight is gone forever

Idk that this next crop is gonna be very good. Don't get me wrong I'm not suggesting this era is the Ali/Frazier/Foreman era or the 90's, but its been fine with a few good fights & I'm not seeing many diamonds in the rough on the way up in 2023. There is Jared & Jalolov who look like potential future belt holders & thats about it.

Exactly - and Anderson is pressing the PR self destruct button.

if i was looking at wilder and AJ now i might be thinking, wilder inactive guy now barely fights bad sign, AJ seems to have lost what he did have, would have no confidence of him even going for a KO possibly, may go safety first borefest, the fight was fireworks years ago when it should have happened, it could be a damp squid now or it could be decent if both guys went for it, could just be a cash out fight for both guys & maybe people realise this

Very negative responses in this thread, I understand why... Boxing...

But these two have no where else to turn. It'll happen - although I can see a fight first and then these two in Wembley in the summer.

It seems like the Saudi's are stalling for a reason , I think that reason is Tyson Fury v Usyk that's the main course .Hearn should stop lying and instead take Wilder v Joshua to a proper fight city where the fans will flock and make the two guys a huge purse without the Saudi madness.This bollocks is been going on for over a year ..

Wilder and Joshua are both clowning frauds. Did Hearn sabotage this fight? lol. If the fight happens guess we will find out who the BIGGEST loser really is hahahahahaha.

Joshua and Wilder were going to fight because the Saudis were offering them 50 million POUNDS each. That's Mayweather money.

Joshua-Wilder for no title is a big fight in England, but the best they could do there would be, I imagine, a total pot of what, 20 million? Maybe 25? At 50-50 we're talking 10-12 million each.

That is a lot of money, but Joshua just got 8million to fight ****in' Helenius.

I just don't think both parties are going to proceed with fighting for like 1/5th of what they originally planned to make.

Eddie will never make this happen just a bunch of B.S.

You might be onto something since it was initially talked about as a 2 fight card with those 4 guys. Always seemed like a too big & too bold idea to me, but if thats what they want & all they want that might be the issue with this fight not getting agreed to all around yet.

Eddie def has a bad conversion rate on fights he talks about too freely on social media.
