Comments Thread For: Hearn Shakes Head at Joshua Guarantee For Wilder Facing Whyte

[Eff Pandas]

Hearn gets a flat fee for AJ fights

Is this a fact? Anyone link to something confirming this. I'd certainly hope Joshua has that sorta deal with Hearn at this point. And I'd hope he's not signed to Hearn exclusively either. Hell even Eubank Jr had an out with Hearn & Eubank Jr ain't got sh^t on Joshua's draw.

Oh look! another promoter in the way. Shocker. AJ needs to speak up.

Wilder did duck Whyte. He turned down 4 mil. He only said a few days ago he'd fight Whyte if guaranteed a Joshua fight. Hearn can't do that. I don't think Joshua will like Hearn using him to help Whyte.

Please tell me you're joking bud. Swear bruh..... You love u some AJ. What's crazy is that you and more crazies Truly believe that. Lol. Speechless

It's pretty much common sense someone as big as AJ ain't paying out no percentage's. Hearn has even said himself: he doesn't work with AJ, he works for him. If Hearn somehow still has a % deal with AJ (which I'm absolutely convinced he doesn't) it will be minuscule compared to the % type deals he has with Whyte, Bellew, Brook etc.

He's speculating. The only thing we know is Eddie takes 25% of the net profit of a PPV show, the fighter takes 75%. However he's said with AJ that has gone down over time so now he's likely on 10-15%.

AJ better keep his robot ass quiet.

"No, it doesn’t work that way," said Hearn to Metro when asked if Wilder would get a guarantee to fight Joshua.

it abso-fkn-lutely does, work that way..... Eddie

Hearn is the arum on the otherside of the pond

How can Hearn guarantee that Wilder will fight Joshua next?

There are two fights - Wilder vs Whyte and Joshua vs X (most likely Parker) and the plan is the winners of those fights to face each other in the summer for title unification. There is no guarantee that both Wilder and Joshua will win. What if Whyte wins? Or what happens if Wilder wins and Joshua loses? Then we have a fight between Wilder and X/Parker that does not include Hearn at all.

And then there is the issue with purse and venue negotiations for 4 possible fights. Nobody can guarantee anything.

You do know that ward n kov did a contract similar saying they'll fight after......

There's no way of it being confirmed either way but I guarantee you Hearn ain't getting nowhere near %15. There's a reason AJ launched his own promotional company (AJ BXNG) so he doesn't have to pay a promoter a percentage fee.
Floyd done the same with Mayweather promotions, Hearn is essentially what Elletbe was for Floyd.
