Comments Thread For: Joshua's Promoter Plans To Make a "New" Offer To Wilder

[Curt Henning]

eddie got backed into a corner..lol

"fresh new offer"

eddie cant stand to see someone stand up to him and his "superstar"....hell do whatever he has to in order to ensure hes in control

[DougalDylan]

I came up with exactly that too ;-)

or keep the 12.5 as is and give Wilder 55:45 (Wilders favour) on the over 50m if Hearn is confident of his figures that would really mess up the Wilder fan boys.

So now we know the phantom offer was just a neg tactic, back to plan A, AJs show but pay more than 12.5m, I reckon it’ll be $15m plus 50% over $50m rev

Bottom line is this....both sides of promoters for this fight need to put all the b.s aside...this is the problem as aj's promoter thinks he's running **** and he's not....both side's put all the alpha male crap away and just sit down openly and co promote this fight in a neutral place with a 60-40 split for aj being unified with the winner getting the ppv percentage and unification (all belts) looser takes his 60-40 and gets lost no rematch clause

WHY WOULD HEARN BE SENDING A COUNTER-OFFER? If he truly believed that it was a PR stunt.

Because he desperately want to make the fight ??

I told these goofs that they look like idiots once Hearn decided to make a better offer. They spent hours arguing about 12m being fair when even Eddie Hearn didn't think it was fair, he just started with a low ball.
These people, I swear...

Now you think you are in a position to decide what is fair? Huhhh?

Question: Will this new deal be better than $50 million against 50% for Joshua? Or will most of the money be for Hearn and co?

The Wilder deal meant Joshua would have to split his money with his manager, trainer and other obligations but the promotion would be handled by Wilder's team. With American backers, it would have been a bigger event hence the bigger guarantee. This new deal would mean Hearn is back in control, shares the profits with his backers and he would be able to give Joshua whatever he "claims" is fair...

Really up to Joshua to decide...

Can just one Wilder fanboy answer me one question?

WHY DO THEY NOT WANT HEARN TO SEE THE OFFER BEFORE SAYING YES?

because everything in the offer is already on the table you dumb POS

50 mil guaranteed and wilder picks venue

all other details arent finalized...they will sit down with hearn and finalize them once he accepts 50 mil and to let wilder choose venue

but HEARN WONT

[HURTFEELINGS]

DING, DING, DING

WE HAVE A WINNER!!!!

HEARN IS IN IT FOR HEARN. Which is why HEARN tried to get Whyte the fight before AJ, that way HEARN eats TWICE either way. AJ said 50mil, now he has to wonder (investigate) WHY HEARN has turned down 50mil (because HEARN wants more for HEARN)

[W1LL]

I just want to see Anthony Joshua vs. Deontay Wilder, all the umming and ahhing is starting to trigger me! Having said that, Jarrell Miller would make it interesting against AJ. That is a fight I'd like to see, but in the ideal world we'll get AJ-Wilder.
