    Joshua tells talksport the fight will happen

    Talksport talking to Joshua before the Haye bellew fight on wilder ..

    “It will definitely happen , definitely, the only thing is I can’t sign my life away, but it’s going to happen”

    When questioned more specifically will it happen next?

    “Yes, it’s definately happening we just need to iron the details”

      So its happening, but maybe not next? Is that the reading between the lines everyone else is getting? Maybe next, but maybe not next is what I'm hearing.

        He said Wilder is next twice.

        At the beginning of the interview he said he won't be signing his life away, he wants to know the devil of the details before signing. Both himself and Wilder want it.

          Can’t sign his life away as in he knows he will get knocked out and his stock will drop

            I've got no issues with him wanting to know the date, the venue, and all of that good stuff. He is still the A-side and does get to dictate terms. Long as the fight is next I am a happy fan.

              Catch-22 for Joshua. They want to control the promotion, but the fight doesn't generate anywhere near as much if it takes place in the UK. Can Hearn guarantee Joshua $50m and Wilder $20m+ to keep the fight at home? A rock and a hard place.

                Hearn is a smart guy. I gotta figure he's got some idea already how this 50M number is real & where the money would be coming from...assuming it is real cuz I know a lot of guys don't believe it is.

                And if its a real number, but the math doesn't make sense to profit based on expectations then I don't think Hearn gots to abide by the 50M number for Joshua or the 70M+ purses for both.
