Originally posted by SkillspayBills View PostI have never claimed either of those things so I am still wondering where your assertion comes from. Or do you just choose to paint an entire swath of fans because nuance is above your mental pay grade.
It amazes me how I can be an enormous fan of a fighter (Anthony Joshua) but I spend myself arguing every damn day with his other supporters.
Let’s see what you’ll be saying now. Wilder should take his offer and fight right?
With regards to the rest, you obviously felt like I was talking about you - If you have once accused AJ of ducking Wilder, then yes you are firmly central to my targeting.

How many hours are left till the 48 hours are up? No venue or date mentioned, just a blank offer "48 hours leave it or take it!". Hearn the shrewd and calculating businesman who takes months to negotiate fights suddenly turns into some mafiaso in the hopes Wilder is insulted and rejects the offer. I hope he doesn't and accepts just to see Hearn's reaction. I'm sure he'll think of some other obstacle.

People want to see the fight happen above all else, yes, but that doesn't mean that people like to see their favourite fighter get shafted in negotiations either. Normal human beings have a natural revulsion of unfairness, and it's obvious that Hearn's offer is an unfair deal. Besides, a fair deal is a prerequisite to the fight happening at all in any case. Sure, there are A sides and B sides and Joshua is definitely the A side and can lay claim to the bigger portion of the money, but making a huge fight like this is ultimately a cooperative effort and if the A side is dead-set on pocketing 90% of the money then the B side might decide, quite rightly, that it isn't worth it to do business with you. Wilder's an unbeaten world champion the same as Joshua, not some hobo journeyman fighting out of a boxcar. The least Hearn can do is make an offer that even slightly reflects that.
All of this should go without saying to anyone with a mental age above 6 years old but when fanboys often decide to act wilfully ignorant.
