    Also Hearn said THEY would make the offer and Finkle asked Hearn during the podcast when they can start negotiations and Hearn basically said...I got to check my schedule.
    LOL @tbv. You listen to that snitch and those weirdo dork sidekicks? Wilders my favorite HW and has been since i watched his first professional fight in Nashville live. But Nes wore a wire to get his buddies sent to prison and get himself outta trouble. Lowest of the low right there.

      Exposed?

      Hearn said he reached out and contacted Finkel and Finkel returned the call and asked about putting Joshua in the Whyte contract. That's all they did. Confirmed by Finkel don't try to twist ****.

      They haven't tried to negotiate the Joshua fight at all.

        Nes also set up Eddie Hearn and had the 'Squad' waiting for his ass! even Tyson Fury was in on it, great episode maybe their best.

        Its WAR they should of been prepared but now that Eddie is in the states he does not have Kugan Cassius from IFL tv around to present him as honest person to the British audience ; Eddie Hearn is now branched out to American territory and hes soon to discover the media dont play out here.

          It should happen next. The Parker fight is only ok because he has the WBO strap but the real interest is in the Wilder fight.

          Eddie Hearn knows the deal though and wants to milk the Joshua cash cow at least once more before the Wilder fight. He's thinking long term what makes him the most $$. That involves AJ v Parker, Whyte v Wilder and then AJ v the winner if Fury isn't back by then.

          I think Hearn has done very good things for British boxing but his fanboys and cheerleaders blindly gobble up every bit of garbage he speaks sometimes. Wilder Joshua should happen now, no excuses. Dillian Whyte doesn't deserve a shot and this whole "he's the most avoided fighter in the division" is ridiculous, the truth is that Eddie won't pay the $$ to back him properly because he knows Whyte is a fight away from getting exposed and wants to cash him out.

            Because the risk doesn't equal the reward from a business perspective in a volatile market.

              nothing to say that it shouldn't happen next, but they would actually have to try to negotiate with Eddie seriously rather than through the media

                Yeah let it happen next. We all want that fight.

                It probably wont though. Because of money. I wonder what kind of split would be fair? 60-40? 70-30?

                  Joshua is about 10x the draw Wilder is. Wilder should be grateful if he gets 25%.
