Dont under estimate the influence of the ref, just look at the parker fight, and how the ref protected AJ constantly and gave him breaks when he was tired...

About Juice said "give me $50 million I'll sign tomorrow"
now Slick Eddie says this
"We've got a great offer from Deontay Wilder's team, unfortunately for Deontay Wilder's team Anthony Joshua doesn't need the money and he's not driven by the money"
and these weak ass fan boys are running with it. the weakest fan base in boxing.
first its a PR stunt and now the money is not important. smh.
AJ will be the biggest coward in boxing history if he turns this down.Comment

Wow never seen this video before!
Totally shows how pampered Joshua is, no wonder Hearn got a clown yes man for him too!
Notice how Team Joshua have also shifted the goal posts...before they were saying that the fight would make more money in UK but as soon as Team Wilder made a $50 Million offer, its now "We don't care about the money".
Total BS. Just admit you don't want to fight Wilder because you'll probably lose!Comment

Hearn said this fight isn't that big anyway. It's only worth $40 mill. but now they're turning down $50 million plus PPV upside smh.
the AJ groupies never brought up location before all they talked about was money money money..
now that the Juice Man has moved the goalposts the fanboys follow suit.
but remember these are the same clowns who called the offer a PR stunt.Comment

As long as you get experienced and fair judges, and a fair referee (an experienced referee would be great too), it shouldn't matter where the fight is held.And why should we care where it happens? True boxing fans won't care if a fight is on Jupiter or Mars as long as that fight happens and we can tune in! What the hell is the world coming to where everyone thinks they are a promoter or part of a fighters management team where they are compensated for the seeds they "sew"?!
99% of the people that witness a boxing match tune in via television!
The Nevada State Athletic Commission is the best boxing commission on the planet, followed by the NYSAC and the California commission.
The British Boxing Board of Control and the Texas State Athletic Commission, as far as I'm concerned, are below that and at about the same level (experienced, but with some bias towards native fighters). Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Ohio, DC would seem to have good commissions, but that generally don't run shows often enough to build the experience.
Below that you have the German, Spanish, and Mexican commissions (experienced, but with clear biases towards native fighters), and then you basically have everything thing else.
If the concern is to ensure a fair fight, Nevada, New York, and California should be options without concern, Wilder's camp would need to mind the officials in the UK, and Joshua would need to mind the officials in Texas.
My take anyway.Comment

HAHAHA, twisting things to look good for you. 50million is way more than 12.5million no matter how you twist it though. Not accepting a 50million guarantee when you asked for this is bad. Not accepting a 12.5million flat fee in the biggest fight in boxing when you know you can do more and actually work in making more isn't.No simpleton , Wilder can break his TWO million highest to 32 Million .
Even 13 Million without a rematch equals over 6 x times his highest . .
What good is 50 Million to Joshua from 20 giving up promotion if its only slightly 2x his highest payday ?
Why are you idiots trying to debate math , you dont even know how to read articles on here ?
"Oh b-b-b-but it's a number times his highest payday." Stop working with percentuals and go to the actual numbers. 30million is way more than 11million period.
Joshua asked for 50million, he knew his side wouldn't lead the promotion. If they want to go back in their word, fine. Send a reasonable offer for a fight this size and make it happenComment

And some guys came up with the excuse that he was trying to take the bandage out. Well, it's always done with a scissor for a reason. If he was really trying to do this he is worse than his fansComment
