The ball is in AJ's court. Wilder agrees to UK and a rematch clause

[HeadBodyBodyBody]

always does man...so true

the worst part is finkel and barry are chums...and the lil brat kid was so shook of wilder threatning AJ that he resorted to calling finkel, who is very well respected and respectful, "shirley"....because lil eddie felt threatned

yeh saw that 'shirley' thing, thought it was a bit juvenile. it's weird, sometimes eddie comes off alright, and other times he just seems like a total tosspot

[Robbie Barrett]

It will make no difference.

From the time they added Povetkin to the Parker undercard, it's been obvious that they don't want the Wilder fight next.

Povetkin is mandatory. Of course they knew they have to fight him soon, either next or after Wilder.

Just because he says Wilder is willing to go to the UK to fight AJ doesn't make it true. Something is holding the fight up. If the money is not the problem and fighting in the UK is no problem then what is the problem?

[HanzGruber]

team wilder have fannied around for too long. hes fighting povetkin and thats that, and its a fight im looking forward to watching.

Lol pathetic. No wonder you like trannys

believe me...hearn felt threatned....he knows wilder has some reputable people behind him in finkel and haymon...and he fears wilder is the man that can derail the AJ gravy train....hearn felt threatned plain and simple

[rolshans]

Personally, I don't believe anything said by Shirley or Barry, all a practice in futility really.

So Hearn says he has an offer on the table to Wilder ... but doesn’t know if Wembley Stadium is available? Doesn’t know the US PPV situation?

This is the guy who when his fighter was offered FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS GUARANTEED said ‘well, first we have to know all the details including the exact date and arena the fight is taking place in” ... and his side claims to have made an offer to Wilder and doesn’t even know if he can book an arena?

Amateur hour.

There’s one sentence in the above quoting Mr. Hearn that says it all: “Is this the right time to fight Wilder?”

The answer is they have no intention of fighting him ... at this time. Or probably any other.

He had no problem dealing with Finkell to set up the Klitch fight, but then again Klitch didn't look to good in the Fury fight and was 41 and inactive at the time. Don't think Hearn is too confident in AJ beating Wilder

The problem is team Wilder is going to AGAIN stall and wait for Hearn to HAVE to deal with Ryabinski and Povetkin so that Wilder can get on social media and make outlandish claims that Joshua ducked him.


This is exactly whats going to happen BUT they might still continue to negotiate for a end of year fight .


We know team Wilder are lying as always bc Breazeale said months ago he had talks with Wilders team and he WOULD be next if Joshua did not fight next . So Breazeale is their fall back opponent , the one they claimed doesn't exist .

[LacedUp]

Good to hear Wilder has come to his senses and has bowed to his sensei's will.

Now let's get the fight on
