    I seriously couldn’t careless about both sides expect sitting down and working out a deal. When one side refuses to sit down then no point.

      What's being asked is that AJ confirm he would accept the $50 million purse IF the other details are satisfactory. If AJ says yes, then you sit down and work out the other details.

      But if AJ isn't willing to accept $50 million even if the other details are satisfactory, what is the point of sitting down? If he's not going to accept the money no matter what the details are, why would you bother working out the details?
      Again how can you say yes or no to a 50m dollar deal? AJ call their bluff for 50m and they came up with it. “Let’s rill” There is no turning back from that. Next step?

        I mean hasn't JOSHUA already said 50 mill and just tell me where to go lool?

        I think you are making this about something it's not. A blind ****** can see Joshua wants Wilder and Wilder wants Joshua. And a blind ****** can see Hearn, usually a great and timely promoter, is trying to marinate this one for some reason.

        Thus the way to cut through the bs is to get Joshua saying f#ck all y'all pay me and pushing Hearn to make the fight vs wants going on now which is Hearn trying to push things in front of Joshua and Wilder to push out the fight. Joshua is the number 1 power player here and if he wants the fight it don't matter what Hearn wants and everyone involved knows that specifically Haymon and Wilder.

          I wouldn't worry about gamesmanship from the Wilder side at this point. The important thing now is both sides have each other's attention. Now what one or both sides do with that attention is the thing to watch. Maybe the ball gets dropped by one side or not, but I think we are still in the stages of figuring something out and this isn't over at all for the next fight for both guys.

              This is what am hoping for, am not looking to blame one side or point the finger at one side. Am trying to figure out if this is a serious offer. Am hoping both side would sit down and finish off this deal.

              I couldn't careless where the money is coming from as long as the money is there. AJ said "If they think this fight is worth 50 million" then am willing to sign tomorrow.

              So as long as the email sent is saying here is 50m for Joshua then fine, next step is for AJ representative to sit down and look at the deal and get him to sign it off if it is acceptable.

              But am sceptical why:

              (1) Team AJ had a schedule meeting with Team Wilder for thursday...(Yes we are getting somewhere)..
              (2) Meeting moved to Friday by Team Wilder
              (3) Wilder himself on social media making an offer of 50M...AJ replied to his account "Lets roll"
              (4) Friday meeting cancel by Team Wilder

              Why didn't they make that offer to Hearn in that meeting on friday? Why the social media offer? This are the questions that makes me question the seriousness of this whole thing. Right now am done with this fight, for me its a PR stunt. They both want to generate interest in this fight and they both want to marinate it.

                Doesn't matter if he can't draw anything, maybe his Team found a network of people who are willing to invest that money into the fight. As long as that money is there without any sort of backhanded stipulations then we shouldn't worry about him drawing flies.

                  They're all just messing the media around with the hype show. Instagram responses aren't anything , it's all too silly.
                  Who cares. Just make the fight happen.
