Comments Thread For: Hearn: Joshua-Wilder is Dead For Now, It's a Mismatch in My Opinion!

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Eddie Hearn, promoter for former two-time heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua, does not believe a fight with Deontay Wilder would be a competitive match.

I'd be really, really curious to see AJ vs Zhang.

I get the feeling AJ won't go near Zhang, nor does he seem interested in anyone else with a pulse at the moment.

Pretty sure wilder would starch wallin and Parker would’ve fished out a similar beating. Hearn is pretty pumped that AJ beatdown a guy who just had a split decision win against effin gassiev lol

In 2 weeks. Eddie will announce that the fight will go ahead "against his advice". It will be the old speil of....AJ's his own man and makes the decisions....and he really wanted it. Highest reward...second biggest name...lowest risk. Its a no brainer.

Hearn needs to keep his mouth shut about Wilder & get his next fight lined up with Zhang or Hrgovic. After all the garbage he & Joshua spewed about Fury fighting Ngganou they would look pretty foolish if they fought him next. Well it would be easy work for Joshua because we know his training camp won’t take place on a barstool at Mickey’s Pub…

I was real curious to see AJ vs Wilder for the last 6 years but Fast Eddie aged Wilder out into irrelevance.

I doubt AJ would take on Zhang. That needs at least another 2 years of marinating to finely age Zhang out so AJ can make a meal of him then.

Though of course. Not without a rematch clause, juuuust in case!

Calling Wilder a mismatch and mentioning fighting Ngannou in the same breath is wild stuff lol

Eddie is probably a top 3 most unlikable major promoter in the history of boxing

I like Fast Eddie. He gives good face but likes the sound of his own voice a bit too much.

I'd let him buy all the beers and listen to his drivel for a couple of hours...Not every day though.

I don't know about Wilder vs Joshua being a mismatch, but they are both damaged goods, Wilder probably more so than Joshua.
Why this fight never happened is beyond me, they would have both earned a real good payday, now they won't earn any where near what it was initially worth.
