Comments Thread For: Wilder's Manager: Luis Ortiz First, Then Joshua-Parker Winner!

"There are only two reasons it doesn't happen. The first is that Tyson Fury has lost all sense of reality for a deal for that fight with AJ. He wants a lot more than a 50-50 split, which is a joke. Second reason is that he can't get himself into a physical condition which is good enough to fight AJ," Hearn said.

"I've talked to Tyson Fury numerous times about it and I don't know if he was having a laugh when he was saying it's a 50-50 split or not, but we're not in a position to talk about that fight anyway for a while."


so wait.....he wants alot more than a 50-50 split......but youve talked to him numerous times and said it was a 50-50 split too? which one is it eddie? hard to read these lines and understand.....

@anthonyfjoshua will except 40% of our fight & will walk first & be announced first, I'm the biggest fight out there for these guys by double.
U heard it here first. @EddieHearn

If you follow Tyson fury you'd know his word is worthless, he changes his mind from one day to the next.

If Wilder can get past Ortiz it will go along way to establish his credibility. Ortiz is the real deal and Wilder will be tested once and for all.

[Straightener]

Better late then never I guess. But it really seems like he wants the big fights now.

He's making all the right noises for sure

Still gassed after flattening Bernie

Hopefully we see the fight next year

should be a top year for the hw division

Ortiz and Wilder haven't beaten a name between them and AJ is also a bit thin on the ground.So when the 'he'll emphatically win' idiots come on here and shout their boy up take it with a pinch of salt.This is only real guess work with not alot apart from much the same to go on.I just would have liked to have seen Wilder v AJ. and Parker v Ortiz because the fight of the moment is AJ v Wilder but that now high anticipation could be derailed by these relatively untested frontrunners at any time.

You're overrating Ortiz quite a bit here based on his resume and his last couple of performances. The way (most) people see it is that Wilder won't have much trouble dispatching him.

Not sure how a guy who got KO'd with head gear is going to take a flush shot from Joshua. Also, Wilder couldn't even KO Stiverne when he was fat, fat - only did it when Stiverne was fat, fat, fat, fat.

Oritz is another fat tomato can. Joshua will have been fighting Wlad and Parker - in-shape boxers with skill...

I hope Beyonce can handle the jet lag...

Didn't Hearn say Fury was asking for to much money also?

Yep but they know Fury makes them tonnes of money, they can’t mess around with that fight or they would have to go fight Wilder for much much less.

You change your mind from one day to the next too. One day you're on your knees for Floyd who is an admitted inconsistent hypocrite. Now, you criticize fighters for trolling and present their statements as truth? LOL.

You're a fcking clown
