    Contract sent to Wilder with no date or venue

    Anyone else think that was Matchroom trying to put the date in themselves? After a Povetkin fight..

    No way that was sent in error & doubt there's any mention or guarantee in the contract that Wilder would be Joshua's next opponent

    Was that a fact or your own version of it?

      Finkel said he had two questions about the contract and they had to with the venue/date not being listed. So basically Hearn would get to pick. Interesting stuff, curious to see if that is how he usually does business or just for this fight.

      He is now saying there is a lot of pressure to fight Povetkin next. Foh, you make the Wilder fight and the WBA or WBO will not say a damn thing. Hearn doesn't like having all his bluffs called. This isn't what he was expecting.

        That’s what Finkel said but he also said expected Oct or nov so unsurprisingl really but would only be able to be cardiff if then

            Sh.its a joke

            Actually let me clarify Hearns a f.ucking joke

            I assume the fight doesn’t happen next which is what I expected

            But honestly how does Hearn think his lies and actions doesn’t hurt himself trying to break into the American market among the fighters he’s trying to sign and fans that pay attention to the sport and how does AJ and Hearn think that making AJ and his team look like b.itches is a good formula if he ever wants to try and break into the States l. How can any boxing fan on this side of the pond get behind this f.aggotry

            I don’t get it

              How can a date and venue be scheduled when they still have to see whether they want Wembley or Cardiff and see what dates are available within those months? It isn't difficult.

              Finkel never gave a precise date or venue in his offer either so why is it one rule.for one and one rule for another?

              The fight will be in Oct / Nov.. those provisions will be in the contract or Finkel wouldn't have bothered signing and saying Hearn will have it Friday.

              As for the poster claiming about WBA / WBO.. the WBO won't say anything as their mandatory isn't even due. They'll just sanction it and if povetkin loses on his WBA shot he won't be their mandatory when it's called. The WBA have been seeking clarity on what's going on all the way throughout this negotiation as they won't allow an exorbitant amount of time for Hearn to get it done and seek exemption as it would open them up to **** from ryabinsky.

              They don't want another scenario where they're legally obliged to honour title shots and possibly lose money and a better face for their belt.

              Jesus Christ.. why is it so difficult to take everything into account before posting or is it just preference to slag off anyone not on your chosen fighters side?

                  Taking everything into account;

                  The contract should state that the event is due to take place in Oct november in either listed venue. Being omitted is a deliberate act & legally the 2 are completely different

                  Why's that hard to understand?
                  This was a contract that spent days with Hearns lawyer..no mention of date or venue in the contract?

                  Finkel wasn't manoeuvring another fight into place when he made the offer. Thats the difference. Why's that so difficult to take into account?

                  Finkel has saidthey need the contract revised/redrawn & providing everything checks out itll be signed by friday. Now hearn has to act, we've seen how he acted with the first contract. Its worth taking into account

                  Ryabinski isn't breathing down anyones back. He has a good relationship with Hearn & its more to do with what Hearn is trying to angle

                  As for the point about wba not wanting to lose their belt holder. Exactly, all the chatter about them putting the pressure is coming from fatboy hearns mouth
