Comments Thread For: Hearn: We Don't Believe Wilder, Miller is Possible For Joshua

[Laligalaliga]

Wow Hearn is a character man. It's getting beyond ridiculous just make the fight happen already. Whether this fight happens or not depends on Eddie Hearn. If Hearn wants the fight to happen it'll happen.

I once said it here that wilder running to the media at every opportunity is not the right way to make this fight, some people thought I was defending AJ. Fights are made on the round table. If hearn decides AJ should fight Miller, there is nothing wilder can do about it.
As fighter, if you need a pay day and a shot to an undisputed champ, do it the right way.
I want the fight to happen.

Wilder is a proven liar. He yaps about wanting aj then refuses to show up ringside. AJ tells him lets get it on post parker and wilder then makes the fight with brazil. QUACK QUACK QUACK.

These mind games are starting to wear on me. At this point I'm sure it won't be happening next, let alone this year.

Ok Hearn, you're pissing me off now.

It's clear you are looking for excuses to not make this fight.

Its been clear for a while that Hearn will delay Wilder and will justify the delay any which way he can, and whether it includes the truth or not.

Miller is lower risk than Wilder, and Hearn co-promoting Miller makes it almost certain that its Miller next.

Only hope for Wilder/Joshua is if Joshua forces Hearn into making it earlier, and that depends on how they work together. I get the impression Joshua focuses on the boxing and lets Hearn deal with everything outside the ring, so we are left with Hearn making the decisions.

"If you don't know me by now, you will never, never, ever know me...OOoooo!" A little ol' skool harmony for y'all! Hearn doesn't want AJ to fight Deontay yet! He wants AJ to come to the U.S, and fight Miller, and then AJ vs. Wilder at the end of 2018! I can't blame him for doing what he's doing. I just hate that he's trying to make Wilder the villain! Wilder is, and has been, ready for AJ NOW! Hearn is milking HIS cash cow! Same as Oscar did with Canelo before GGG! Same as Arum did with Pacquiao before Mayweather! I hope Miller beats Duhaupas in style, and then he goes and "body" AJ! GO BROOKLYN!!!

So what is your take on the multiple conflicting statements that Hearn has made to the media? He's said that he hasn't heard from Team Wilder and he's said that he's had behind the scenes or something like that conversations with Team Wilder over the last few weeks.

How is he a proven liar? How is it his fault that Hearn said they wouldn't allow Wilder to get into the ring post-fight?

WOW! Cat's out of the bag now! Even Joshua's own management believes Wilder is just to dangerous and they don't want to disrupt the gravy train. Well I guess the debate is finally over Wilder is the best, most feared heavyweight in the world and should just move on. Joshua can continue fighting stiffs pounding his chest but he should no longer be concidered the top dog. Joshua is the best heavyweight in England thats about it.

Food for thoughts: Wladimir Klitschko never ducked anyone.

I don't know how people can still be on Eddie's side here

Wilder - "I'm ready, I accept the challenge, I'll take your offer and I'll fly to England to fight him!"
Eddie - "We don't believe you, AJ is going to fight Miller. He's earned a title shot by fighting such world beaters as Mariusz Wach and Fred Kassi!"
