Comments Thread For: Hearn: Canelo-Golovkin Deal Pushes Back Joshua-Wilder Fight

Yup. Canelo fights two days a year, and one of them just passed.

I hope AJ gets KTFO by Povetkin. Would serve him AND Hearn right

Not happening pal, next wish??

Eddie Hearn buttlickers will still claim he's not ducking

[R_Walken]

Hearns on record saying for the fight to happen next Wilder would have to agree to the terms in the next week or so

Wilder agrees now it’s there probably isn’t enough time to do it in September and if it doesn’t happen in a September probably needs to pushed to early next year

Oh, I know it's not. Povetkin will be 39. I said I hope because it would look good after all this posturing.

exactly. Never trust a boxing promoter, but when it comes to Bob, he's 90, worth millions and smokes weed every day. he's the definition of not giving a ****, he's just still doing this because he loves the power and he loves boxing. I have a feeling if Bob were AJ's promoter he'd just be like "yeah, too much of a risk right now. We don't want the fight until it's worth half a billion. Deal with it. Both guys can clean out the HW division for the next two years, and you fans will have to sit there and ****ing like it" We would be pissed, but we wouldn't feel lied to every week.

So while I never trust a promoter, i quarter trust bob lol

I still remember when asked about Pac doing blood tests BOTH him and Roach said that would not be a problem. And both backpeddled faster than Lance Armstrong when Pac said no he wouldnt!

And who can ever forget about classic building a 40,000 person stadium outside in Vegas???

He must of been high on some good sht and just watched "Field of Dreams"

Bob is always good for a laugh when they put a mic in front of him. I hardly know when he's serious now with that stadium chit

Arum can come out and say that, because ultimately Bob Arum doesnt give a **** if people like him or not.

Eddie cares, so he will blame people and give them ****** nicknames and chit instead of telling the truth.

And it's working. Wilder posted a meme on Instagram right after Eddie said this, and all of AJ's fans are attacking him saying it's his own fault for taking too long and not actually wanting the fight

They don’t really believe that. They’re just saving face.

I like the contrast in the photos. Wilder is contorted rage and Joshua is cool magnanimous. They gotta get this done. Ideally maybe Joshua would like to face the more conventional Povetkin first but this just means that it is a safer option. Wilder has done his part in revealing that the interest is there for this fight more than Povetkin.
