    AJ wanted $50 million got it and now we hear all these goal post moving to get the fight done.

    I am rooting for Wilder but I personally think that AJ's skills are going to come on top. Why not take the money, fight in the States and if he wins he will even be a bigger superstar and will go into the history books.

      Then AJ double f'ed up when he said that 50 million stuff. I bet he didn't expect Wilder's team to actually come up with it. $50 million is 1 or 2 Mayweather fights for Showtime lol. With nothing planned on PPV for Showtime and Las Vegas leaking money since there is no super fight to fill their Casinos and Hotels in since Canelo got popped, it was obvious the "people that be" in the background would do some stuff to get Joshua and Wiler in Vegas.

      Now Eddie Hearn is scrambling trying to get the power back on his side because suddenly he's finding himself on the outside looking in. Not being able to rip people off for outrageous ticket prices himself in the UK while getting away with big time undercutting Wilder. The only person that's losing is Hearn, definitely not AJ.
      Showtime, Al Haymon, Finkle and Wilder should all increase the offer and make it a Public Offer. That will put the heat on Hearn and Joshua...Showtime should put out out a statement as then Hearn wouldn't be able to argue about "proof of funds" as Showtime is a CBS Company and listed on a official stock exchange so obviously the money would be legit

        Joshua is in the US now.

        Hoping the deal is close to being signed off.

          LMAO I swear you mfers would rather have Joshua 'ducking' Wilder than to see the actual fight.

          Everything Hearn and Joshua say are lies, but when it's Wilder doing the talking and his emotional outbursts on social media you take it as gospel Fanboyism 101.

          Anyway, I think the fight will be announced soon. Joshua is in US now, hopefully to sign the contract. See now that Wilder and his team of amateurs shut the **** up, stopped doing negotiations via social media and finally started negotiating behind closed doors like everybody else, things are getting done. Imagine that.

          Doomsday is coming, boys. Once Joshua exposes Wilder for what he really is, you all will dissappear as quickly as you popped up when Wilder beat Stiverne and started running his mouth.

              They aren't asking for proof of funds

              Everyone question they had about the money has been answered by Haymon. They're arguing about where it should be



              "Eddie Hearn says Al Haymon HAS answered his questions regarding the $50m offer for Anthony Joshua v Deontay Wilder and the next move in negotiations is for Joshua to decide if he wants the fight in Las Vegas (pursue Wilder's offer) or in the UK (counter-offer). [@IFLTV]"

                As boxing fans, I'd think we'd all be used to this. Unless one of them gets monumentally upset by a contender, the fight will be made. There's too much money to be made- They're marinating. My bet is that it happens at some point either at the end of 2018 or mid 2019.

                  God you guys are dumb. How does Hearn offer Wilder the fight at 12 million, then Hearn goes to the USA to meet with Wilder's team and they refuse to meet with him...but somehow AJ and Hearn DON'T want the fight??? Are you guys that ******??? If Wilder makes 1 million per fight (if he's lucky), then how on earth does he have 50 million stashed somewhere to pay AJ?? And who negotiates a 50 million dollar fight through an email? Hahahahhah other than Nigerian scam artists. Come on man, there will be a lot of noise and then wilder will fight (and almost lose to) Breazeale and AJ will fight his mandatory Povetkin. Wilder said he will fight in he UK but now all of the sudden he can't? Also he was on social media every day before the Parker fight saying AJ was ducking him, now all of a sudden he has nothing to say?

                      Joshua might be showing a lil fear, Wilder is pretty fast, and I think he can take Joshua.
