Comments Thread For: Hearn Wants To Sign Wilder: I Can Probably Pay Him Double!

Frickin love this guy, he gets 50x more quotes than any other promoter cos he just know's how to press buttons better and he's making serious dollars. Funny guy, Higgins got owned in their little bit of banter at the presser, him, Dana, Conor and Mayweather are just sharper than the rest.

The Don King school of promotions.

You have both under contract so It doesn’t matter which fighter loses because fast Eddie will win in any case.

Can’t be mad at someone’s game but it sounds like fast Eddie isn’t as confident in AJ as he’s letting on.

Yup old school. I can’t hate on that, it’s business.

It finally comes out!!!

What other evidence do we need that Eddie is protecting his profits and avoiding the Wilder fight? Eddie can’t promote Wilder any better. If he could why didn’t Luis Ortiz blow up when he signed to Matchroom? It’s all about keeping the winner of the mega-fight in-house. Let’s keep it 100 it doesn’t take much to promote a UK fighter. All you have to do is show up, be likable and keep winning, the people there just act like natural fans and support their own people. The UK still has a thick culture, America has sacrificed culture for unlimited greed and a divisive control system.

Lol the ****ing were trolls in here I swear..
The BBBofC made the call... The reason Klitschko was in the ring was because he was personally invited before the bout the come in the ring because a contract had been signed!! And this curt spastic and the xenophobe motorcity cobra on here acting like deontays the lord and saviour of boxing.
The British board said no.. you aren't going in of your own volition. If he had been invited in even on the night of the fight they wouldn't be able to do **** because it would have been consented in the form of the invite!! But don't think you call the shots in a different country on someone else's show!!
Hearn said. ****ing come and do your bit for sky and make the fight big.. but nah. Beyonce can't have his own way.. that typical mentality of "I can't follow the rules.. cos they aren't my rules .. so the man holding a brother down"
****ing pathetic.

This is more along the lines of the way I see it. How is Hearn afraid of Joshua fighting Wilder, when he has been actively trying to get Wilder in his stable so the Joshua/Wilder fight is easier to make? And even before that, getting Wilder vs Whyte on a Joshua card. Does anyone really think THAT would not have yielded a Joshua/Wilder fight? And now Wilder won't go to England for the Joshua/Parker fight. Why? Cuz he makes his own rules? How about he just shuts up, does some smart moves his promoters and Hearn tell him to do, and let that move along this promotion? It's Wilder who is more and more showing a yellow streak that's getting tougher and tougher for him to hide. I hope I am completely wrong on this, but I have a feeling I'm not, unfortunately.

Remember when Floyd was asking Manny to sign to TMT for the fight to get made?

Sky should stop this crazy monopoly that Hearn has and give other promoters a shout.This reminds of Don King having a hold over the big division and how unfair it turns out.

Why is Wilder wasting his time with PBC let Eddie make you millions like AJ..

Hearn wants to make sure he has another heavyweight lined up whenever AJ loses or stock plummets. I want to know how AJ feels about this situation. Also it depends on how Wilder wants to approach this, does he go for the money or stay where he's at. The fight game is unforgiven so you have to stack your money up as quick as possible before your career is over. Or does Wilder ride his current situation out until AJ has no other options available? I know one thing Danny Jacobs signed lol
