Comments Thread For: Hearn: I Won't Let Joshua Face Wilder With an 8-Week Camp!

[Just looking]

The OFFER, including terms and conditions, was sent about a month ago. The response only came from Wilder that he accepted the terms - last week. Now comes the contract.

So there was a huge delay from Wilder’s side, do you understand now?

Hey genius, the 4 weeks excuse is BS of the highest order. In the week before Wilder acceptance, one of his managers came out and said they were in talk, sended a counter proposal to Hearn and were waiting for a response on the weekend. In the monday Wilder accepted.
So, to make it easy to you. They were negotiating during all this time (how could they?) and by the end of it accepted a revised offer that obviously wasn't the same as the first one

So according to Hearn they were in constant communication regarding the accepted offer and the $50M offer. Recall that Hearn improved his offer after he said no to the $50M because they wanted it in the UK. That no came on May 11th. Wilder accepted the improved offer June 11th. How is that delaying if he only had the improved offer for approximately 2 weeks?

He's too biased to accept any of what you've just said. Green K.

Some folks are determined to only see one side. Funny thing is, Joshua isn't scared but his promoter isn't 100% sure he wins.

I agree with that 100%. It's plain to see.

That's the first I heard of that. How did you find out that the cancelled meeting was to discuss a percentage. I mean you would think that if a percentage was cool for Hearn earlier, the latest offer which Wilder accepted would have been a percentage. Instead it's a flat fee.

How do you know that Wilder wasn't offered a percentage?

Hearn said he would discuss a percentage cut with Wilder's team, and there is no reason to believe he didn't.

Unless you're going to take the attitude - "whatever Hearn says, it's a lie" in which case there's no point trying to discuss it with you.

Hmmm...offering the fight or just negotiating, just as Wilder and his team have. Remember, we are only at this point because Team Wilder is accepting a purse lower than what they feel they should get in the UK and significantly lower than they would get if the fight were in the US.

So, you said Wilder had been sitting on the contract for a week. That turned out to be false. You ignored the fact that Hearn missed his deadline by 3+ days. You ignored the fact that Hearn is insinuating that Wilder will sit on the contract for weeks even though he agrees to the terms already (is there some hidden language in the contract?) You ignored the fact that Hearn has tossed about Oct November and Feb as potential fight times yet is complaining about the need for a longer than 8-week training camp.

You claim Hearn is being professional but at every juncture he seems to be speaking negatively about Team Wilder and trying to convince the public that Team Wilder doesn't want the fight or is hindering it.

Offering the fight - Hence the multiple contracts being sent.

You must have forgot there wasn't room for negotiations with Wilder and his team. "There's no reason to meet"

Good pick. I would like to say Brasil, but the defense is as weak as ever. But wouldn't like to forget Portugal, they only have Ronaldo but with good matchs they can go far

True true but after watching them against Morocco today I don’t even fancy them reaching the quarter finals

This 'I need 16 weeks for "camp"' thing is for the birds. An 8 week camp is sufficient for a guy who clearly lives in the gym. Joshua is never out of shape. He might not be laser-focused when he doesn't have a fight scheduled but he's still punching, still working on things, still maintaining his cardiovascular fitness. 8 weeks of training 2-3 times per day 5-6 days per week will get you as sharp as you're ever gonna get.

Eddie is a businessman, and knows that a fight of this magnitude needs proper promoting, on tour etc.

Wilder and his team have done a good job of stalling, refusing to meet, not responding, trolling on social media, etc. But the facts are, with proper cooperation from the American side, this fight would already be signed, they’d have promoted it already (Wilder never even attended the AJ Parker fight - he’s either an idiot or doesn’t want AJ next), venue, date, purse, TV etc would all be sorted. Wilder acts like they’re arranging a picnic. Get real, get serious, get off social media, and then get knocked out by Joshua.

Fight will happen, and I predict Cardiff Oct or Nov, and AJ will punish this troll.

Wilder will accept the rematch, get paid again, and get knocked out again.

Truth.

You're talking out of your anus. Joshua lied, saying he'd accept a fight for $50 million. When they came up with $50 million (Hearn confirmed the offer was real) he changed his mind and started demanding they fight in the UK. Joshua is *****.

Wilder was going to attend Joshua vs Parker, but Joshua wouldn't agree to a face off in the ring after the fight. Joshua fans are quickly becoming just as annoying as Pacquiao fans. Proof: https://www.boxingscene.com/joshua-w...-fight--126269

Now you're talking about a contract they supposedly have already even though Hearn just said the other day that they haven't sent it yet.

these hearn fans pull things out of nowhere and expect us to believe it, its really no use in even responding to most of them anymore

I give them the benefit of the doubt sometimes. Just in case. It does appear that they are fans of him s ok sometimes and not AJ.
