Comments Thread For: Eddie Hearn Smiles: I Think We've Got Deontay Wilder Cornered!

A cunning ploy to get under Parkers skin by looking past him as though AJ has already won their fight.

Well played Fast Eddie, but i think you need to back the truck up.

AJ is in for the fight of his life with Oilskin, as is Windmill with King Kong !

I don't get Hearn -, Wilder said he would fight Whyte if the contract said he would fight Joshua straight after so therefore he gets Wilder twice, but Hearn backed off. Setup a big fight in the summer where Joshua v Povetkin and Wilder v Whyte where the winners face each other. Like a mini super 6 but it can be the dynamo 4 contest. That presuming Joshua gets past Parker where I have a gut feeling the upset of the year happens therefore this fight loses momentum.

... and what if windmill lost to whyte?

It'd be hard enough trying to negotiate one contract with Fast Eddie or Windmill's amateur hour handlers let alone a 2 for 1.

Just shows what a dumbass windmill is with his silly talk and outrageous demands!

How is $4m offered nothing? That's probably 4 times what he's earned before. Then I'm not going to pretend to know what the Joshua fight is going to bring in but it sure as hell is going to be in the 10s of millions of dollars even for Wilder. I'm not sure what you define as nothing?


I just want the fight to happen, so couldn't care less how much each one earns as I'm not getting a cut. I enjoy boxing and want to see the best vs the best in every division. It's kinda mad how fanboys from either side are really closing their eyes to the basic truths out there for all to see.

Joshua and Hearn are giving a low offer and Wilder is out pricing himself. Both seem to be playing the dodging game and I wouldn't be surprised that it's orchestrated to raise the profile of both in their opponent's countries before eventually signing a fight at around 60-40 in favour of Joshua as he will hold the majority of belts IF he gets through Parker.

Or they both realise that they need to keep making money and preserve their 0 for as long as possible before eventually fighting close to the end of their careers in the same way as Mayweather vs Pacquiao.

Agree with what you wrote. I used the term 'nothing' as a generalisation. I am not interested the the finances, rather making a point on the politics of boxing. Wilder must fight Whyte (Hearn) or Joshua (Hearn). Take good money for Whyte or average (but more) money for Joshua. Point is, all roads leads to Hearn's wallet getting fatter.
And yes, Wilder going for 50% is unlikely happen.

So is Whyte the WBC mandatory if he beats Browne?

Anything is possible with the WBC. Hearn would love for it to be a final eliminator, but it's going to be up to Haymon. Does he want to force Whyte vs. Breazeale later this year as a final eliminator, or does he prefer for Breazeale to just sit and become the next mandatory after Whyte via attrition? Hard to say.

Do you think Al Haymon is smarter than you?

Do you think Al Haymon is smarter than you?

Do you think Al Haymon cares more about himself or Wilder?
