Comments Thread For: Hearn: If Wilder Won't Travel For Joshua, Then Povtekin is Likely

Well, am guessing he is taking a gamble in regards to that. I don't think he can make so much money when they have to pay Joshua 50M.

Thats the thing Wilder cannot cry about money when hes asking for 40 % in the U.K which gets him over 20 Million then turn around at the same time and take less then that in the U.S and complain about getting low balled by 12.5 million they didnt even negotiate .


The only low balling really has been his own team done to him . lol

Well tell that to his accountants on here who all "Want to see the fight" but upset at another man's 12.5m "Flat fee" offer.

I guess they would both end up fighting their mandatories then.

.... I still have a glimmer of hope

Very disappointing statement

Team wilder are just ****** you offer 50m and you don’t want to meet the promoter for details of the deal wind money lol

The whole thing from the very beginning has been quite ludicrous. Just like the Mayweather Pacquiao fiasco, it would have been better had everything been done privately. But their buffoonery keeps the boxing writers employed I guess.

Lame.......

Don't you read where it says Joshua is willing to accept a pay cut to have the fight in the UK?

A pay cut can mean two different things. Is Joshua talking about the two offers on the table, one offer from Wilder to fight in the US for $50 million, and the other offer from Hearn to stage the fight in the UK, which will have a total revenue of around $40 million? The answer is a clear yes. Joshua will take a pay cut to fight in the UK.

On the other hand, is Joshua talking only about his original offer to Wilder to fight in the UK. Is Joshua willing to take a smaller percentage of his money to increase the offer to Wilder?

Wilder is a slave and US is the plantation. Every smart fighter would come to UK but Wilder is a milk cow, not so smart.

Why worry about what Wilder is making? The man himself doesn't seem to be sweating on what he's gonna make for ******** on himself. Seems like you're creating a reason to be upset here.

And that 12.5 million offer was take it or leave it according to Hearn, and he declined, no need to go further. I guess they were right for not taking that offer because Hearn later said he'd send him a new one
