Comments Thread For: Eddie Hearn: 'No Reason' Joshua-Miller Shouldn't Happen in U.S.

Theyre trying to get Wilder In Mr. T mode!

Come on now

Had the Povetkin and Ortiz fights happened....Wilder would be far more popular.

Think it though man.

Povetkin and Ortiz were both mandos. It was the WBC who made those match-ups, not Wilder's manager or promoter.

[Bango Bang]

Wilder is a protected fighter with Stiverne being his best UD win.

Im so tired of Wilder and his big mouth. I mean doesnt he know that his resume is weak? Talk about delusional.

I know all that lil fella.

Hearns gotta stop Trolling Deontay .
Wilders gonna explode ( on social media ) when he hears this .

[Eddy Current]

It seems like Miller's style wouldn't work too well against Joshua. Miller sort of plods forward and throws volume punches, just gradually wearing down his opponent. He doesn't seem to really load up on any shots and it's always an accumulation type thing. He eats a decent amount of shots but seems to have a solid chin. I don't see his chin standing up too well to many of Joshua's shots though, and Miller doesn't seem to be the most elusive HW.

Freakin pathetic. If Deontay and his side were talking like this, wow. Basically, Hearn just keeps saying no, Joshua will not fight Wilder anytime remotely soon. He words it lots of different ways though. He wishes had a big ****, Wilder needs to fight Whyte first, AJ is only fighting in England, AJ wants Jarrell Miller, etc. etc. We get it, you will not allow AJ to even think about fighting Wilder for a long, long time.

All everyone wants is a Joshua-Wilder fight. Right now. There is no sense in these crap fights. Nothing more than blatant money grabs against no hopers. Yes, Miller is okay, but no he has no chance against Joshua. No one but Wilder does. It sounds better saying AJ will fight Miller, instead of saying AJ refuses to face Wilder though.

[THEFRESHBRAWLER]

He's offering Wilder more money and more exposure than he's ever had before, for a fight that Deontay claims is easy work, in order to build interest for an even bigger fight after that.

In other words, he's doing what a boxing promoter is supposed to do - make fights and make as much money as possible from them.

He made 4.5 million against povetkin

I agree with that. The wilder fight was never happening until has had exposure in America with another American fighter.

Same way he wants Wilder to fight Whyte in the uk so he gets more exposure which makes the fight bigger on both sides of the pond.

I actually agree with this theory.....

And prefer it vs rushing to make Joshua vs Wilder....

Let's get Wilder over to the UK against White....

Bring Joshua over here vs Miller in New York...

Only makes Joshua vs Wilder greater!!!! I'm all in!!!

Wilder's resume isn't bad at all.... Stiverne was a real champion...... Wilder beat a real champion for his belt!!!!

Joshua's best win was Klitschko, which is amazing, but he didn't even beat a real champion for his belts. Fury beat a real champion for his belt and was stripped.

Neither guy's resume is stellar.
