      Critical thinking - Wilder fanboy style:

      Wilder is American, so everything he and his team say is true, and should not be doubted.

      Eddie Hearn is not American, so he is a liar and he doesn't want AJ to fight Wilder.

        That's a weak-azz slant in this digital age. This fight could get made without them ever being in the same room. Again, there was no "refusal". The conditions were set [agree to the financials and then lets sit down]. It's a common practice in boxing. It's not Team Wilder's job to make decisions that affect only Matchroom and Joshua easy. Its not Team Wilder's responsibility to keep Hearn from looking like a "schmuck" in the eye of public opinion (which is the reason he won't agree to the financial terms without details - his reasoning, not mine.
        Here is what happened in a nutshell: Hearn sent Wilder an offer and scheduled a meeting to negotiate and try to work out a deal.

        Wilder's team sent Hearn a counter-offer via twitter which astonished everybody, then cancelled the meeting with Hearn and refused to talk to him unless he "had AJ agree to the offer first"

        AJ responded via twitter, "Let's roll"

        Hearn said he was interested in the offer and again requested a meeting to discuss it, because he says he can't agree to anything until he knows the details.

        Wilder's team won't talk to Hearn and they won't tell him any of the details of the offer unless he agrees to it first, which he has told them he isn't going to do.

        Hand on heart, because this is the honest truth: If the boot was on the other foot, and it was Hearn and AJ sending offers via social media, then cancelling meetings and refusing to discuss them, I would be calling bullshit on them for doing that.

          It's unbelievable isn't it?

          Eddie makes himself available and accountable to the fans and to be as transparent as possible every single day by answering questions.

          Finkel hides behind an solitary, shady and ambiguous email and gets a free ride.

            Am I right to be worried .It seems Shelly and Al have disappeared with Wilders loot $50 m in fact.They have just vanished not saying anything other than they are not in position to meet with anyone and can not at this point tell us of what their plans are?

                They haven't picked a date yet. Beyonce is performing every Saturday at T-Mobile for four months straight?

                  And his explanation - as a man who's job is making fights - is that he won't meet with Hearn to try and make what would be the biggest fight in world boxing, because it might turn out to be a waste of time.

                    And the rest!

                    $50million is just AJ's guarantee!

                    Even if Wilder was going to fight for free, how many other people would need paying to get a fight like this staged, advertised, broadcast, etc?

                      Wilder's promoter: "You don't make fights by sending emails. Fights get made by negotiating. Just because that muthafukker says shit on twitter .. that doesn't mean anything"
