    Why would Hearn contact them before they announce it to the media if it's actually signed
    Professional courtesy? Recognition that a September date is off the table?

      all hearn has to say now is "we had already secured other plans while wilder left us in limbo...its a little late now we have another fight done....but we'd be willing to revisit this deal for next spring/summer"
      I can totally seeing Hearn playing that angle and it’s a shame too. Neither Wilder or Joshua turning the fight down. It’s greedy Eddie Hearn trying to milk Joshua

        When has Hearn ever done that before? Did Pulev get that same courtesy ?

        SOFIA, BULGARIA – Kubrat Pulev commented today on this morning’s press conference in London where Dillian Whyte and his promoter Eddie Hearn of Matchroom Boxing, announced that instead of fighting him, Whyte would be facing recently dethroned WBO Champion Joseph Parker.


        And even IF that was the case Hearn would've schedule a media conference like he always does seconds after agreeing to terms with whoever

          Wilder's own manager comes out and says "we accept the terms they've given us" and people still think AJ will run.

          Except of course if Wilder and his team have realized the AJ gravy train was going to Russia and they started on their typical media bs again.
          Aj already ran from the 50 mil dollar deal. And we’re the insane ones?

            I wouldn’t be shocked if we saw wilder and Joshua on the same card in the U.K., but vs different opponents as a double co-attraction, just to build hype for the actual fight next spring. This has to been at an outdoor stadium, so it makes since to push it back till next spring, and do a cash grab event to hype it.

            I don’t really think location matters to each camp, it’s not like this is going to the scorecards
            Principality Stadium has a roof on it, and 70000 seats.No need to stall this any further, lol

              I'm sure he made a phone call before it hit the press, yeah. But if not, who the **** cares, it's only Pulev.

              For Wilder, Hearn has been positive lately and keeping relations amicable and his own words 'communication flowing between the two sides'.

              Last week he indicated a fight in the Fall doesn't work for Wilders side because of Showtime and it would clash with Canelo. That's why I'm skeptical of Wilder coming out now and saying he's ready to rock n roll.

              Well we shall wait and see.

                  For the people who don't want this fight to happen out of FEAR of what might happen to the guy they want to win, they will find another excuse and try to put up another Road Block

                    Nah man. I dont think so. There are 12 rounds and all it takes is one. Wilder has proven that. AJ is the better boxer for sure, but I dont think he is the better fighter. Peace.

                      Is this fight closer now? Sign the contract, otherwise it's just playing public.
