Comments Thread For: Hearn: Anthony Joshua is Very Interested in Rematch With Whyte

[7not8]

You Wilder fan boys need a reality check.

Your hero turned down a $4million offer to fight Dillian Whyte and opted for old, sick, inactive Luis Ortiz instead - and almost got KTFO by a cherry pick!

Whyte is the No1 contender with the WBC and both he and Lucas Browne would be far better than anybody Wilder has fought so far.

You are literally the only one backing up this nonsense and you're not even doing it with facts. It's one thing to be a fan of a fighter but it's something totally different when you respond like you do.

According to Finkel, there have been no discussions between representatives for Wilder and Joshua since November 29. That was the day Finkel met with Barry Hearn, Eddie Hearn’s father and the founder of Matchroom Boxing, which promotes Joshua.

“What I said was that on November 29th, 2017, I met with Barry Hearn, which is Eddie’s father,” Finkel said, referring to a story he told toward the end of Wilder’s post-fight press conference Saturday night. “And he said that he believed he could bring more people to Vegas, at a higher ticket price, that we would make more money than if we fought in the UK. I said to him, ‘We’re open to fight either place. If you’re ready, we could make a deal.’ He also asked us if we would fight on February 3rd against Dillian Whyte. I said, ‘Sure, if we could make Joshua.’

“I got a letter later that day and it was from Eddie. He says, ‘Hi Shelly. Glad you had a good chin wag with the old man.’ I laugh a little because this is language I never could’ve made up. ‘I will get the respective P&L, profits-losses, to you this week for discussion. All the best, Eddie.’ That was on November 29th. I have not heard from him since

Fast Eddie wants the least resistant easy match up deals to keep the Golden Goose laying those fabulous golden eggs

Povetkin, Miller, lard mode Fury, and now Whyte 2.0. Brings a whole new meaning to the phrase "having your ducks in a row."

Hahaha.

Joshua is his own manager apparently, and Hearn has confined that he works for Joshua, so if Wilder isn't next then it's on "AJ" . . .

Spring 2019, Anthony Joshua "look I really want to fight Deontay someday but I know the fans want to see me rematch Eric Molina, so we are focusing on that fight this fall. Deontay has to be patient, we will get to him in 2020"

According to Finkel. Key words right there!

Ducking wilder

After reading this, I can't see how are there any AJ fans left. This is a boxing text book definition of a DUCK. He should star in the next Aflac commercial.

Joshua fans should be ashamed by this nonsense. SMH

WHY? WHY? WHY? WHY?!!!!! Nobody cares about this fight. Yes, Whyte was the first one to show us that AJ could be rocked in the professional ranks but that's it. If Wlad couldn't beat him after that knockdown then......... This is getting embarrassing now, What do you say as an AJ fan to this crap?

You are literally the only one backing up this nonsense and you're not even doing it with facts. It's one thing to be a fan of a fighter but it's something totally different when you respond like you do.

People need to calm down, Joshua isn't fighting Whyte next. Might they fight again in the future? Maybe, but it won't be next. Miller or Wilder will be after Parker

I agree with this. If AJ beats Parker, it definitely won't be Whyte next.

Wilder fanboys need to understand something - among AJ's fan base - the people who are responsible for him earning 10 times what Wilder earns per fight - there is no great demand for him to fight Wilder next.

To AJ's fans, Deontay Wilder is just another card in the pack, and they are quite happy for AJ and Hearn to pull whatever card they want to pull out of that pack and place it on the table whenever they like.
