Comments Thread For: Hearn: At This Stage, I Believe Wilder Does NOT Want Joshua Fight!

[MONGOOSE66]

I’ll be honest. I don’t think either man is that good. So the fight isn’t that big of a deal now. Id like to see them more. I think both men are beatable.

Wilder and his side don't want this fight. They are trying to force the Povetkin fight so they can blame AJ and Hearn for the fight not happening. They took 4 weeks to accept the offer, now they're refusing to sign a contract they agreed to. It's been a week now.

**** Wilder. And **** his pathetic fans.

I honestly don't understand people supporting Wilder right now. He has had a contract in his hands since Monday with the terms that HE PUBLICALLY ACCEPTED a week before.

The two questions raised were answered, and who knows whether they were even serious questions!? Sounds like a stall tactic to me.

Now Wilder goes on YouTube talking **** about the $50m offer which we've already established isn't acceptable to Joshua. Wilder ACCEPTED a different offer and asked for a contract so why is he bringing this up again!?

If there was a serious problem with the contract that he hadn't agreed to then we would all know about it from his big mouth.

Did Hearn say earlier this week "We'll send the contracts over, there wont be any surprises". Then how the hell did he send one last week?!

Shelly Finkel confirmed the contract arrived on Monday. We're just waiting for Wilder to sign but it looks like he's just fronting and doesn't really want this fight.

Phuck both teams, if you both want the fight then you would sit down together and trash out a deal, all this trying to win points interviews or social media is boring. You really want the fight? Get in a room, trash out a deal, get the solicitors to check it over and get the fighters to sign it.

They have already done that. Wilder and his side have agreed but they still won't sign the contract.

Wilder never really wanted the fight, he was happy convincing people he was, but it's got a bit too real for him now and he's got cold feet.

Somehow we all knew that Hearn would attempt to justify Joshua not fighting Wilder. Fighting Wilder would bring an abrupt end to Hearn's manipulating Joshua's fights to ensure he wins and the BIG cash flow continues. Deontay (as another poster said) looks at the matchup as not a boxing match but a fight and a true opportunity to hurt Joshua. Hearn makes a lot of general allegations but has anyone seen any specific details laid out by Hearn saying what Wilder won't agree too? No, Hearn simply spots off at the mouth and flings a bunch of crap at Wilder hoping that it sticks. Deontay takes all of this very personally and if Hearn lets his meal ticket fight Wilder, Joshua will pay the price for Eddie's mealy mouthed comments.

You do know that Wilder has agreed to the offer and now has a contract but won't sign? How the **** is that Hearn's fault? They can't force the coward to sign.

Wilder's team asked for clarifications on 2 points which they received on Friday. 48 hours later and they haven't got back to Hearn about points they don't agree with.

Is it possible that the clarifications were not in the agreed upon terms? Is it possible that those clarified items are deal breakers?

AJ is a hoe! Letting hearnz put his hand up yo ass like a puppet! Wilder made a interview exposing the whole ****ty flat fee 12.5 deal.. I hope Povetkin is roided to the gills and beats Joshua’s ass. Im Tired of the champion of Britain! No heart!!! A straight biitch! Doomsday Wilder will collect the belts from Povetkin! **** f*ggoty ass loose booty AJ!

You do know Wilder accepted an improved offer don't you? So why are you still going on about the 12.5 mill?


You're one ****ing weirdo do you know that?


Wilder has the contract but he won't sign. He's the coward you little b*tch.

[Sid-Knee]

You know that for a fact? Have you talked to Wilder to verify the truth of your statement or are you maybe just believing Eddie's lies?

Finkel reported that they received the contract on Monday. If there was something in the contract that they didn't agree to wouldn't they come out and say so?


Wilder has you people fooled.

Quote from Shelly Finkel from June 11th,“We have agreed to the terms that Eddie [Hearn, Joshua's promoter] has put out to us for a fight in the UK,” Finkel told ESPN.

“Deontay has accepted his terms to fight in the UK. Deontay sent an email to Joshua [on Sunday] night and I sent one [on Monday] to Barry Hearn and Eddie telling them that we officially accept the offer to fight under the terms they gave us and to send us the contract.”

What the hell changed??? Just sign the damn contract.

Nothing changed. Wilder never really wanted the fight. Everything has become a little too real for him at this time and he's ****ting it.

However, if he can convince the American fans that it's actually Joshua and Hearn that is messing about, that's good enough for him.

They're trying to force the Povetkin fight, that's why they're wasting time. That's the out that Wilder wants.
