Hearn: The offer is still on the table

[LacedUp]

Don’t bet on it. Think about what they’re saying. Translation: He didn’t get them so maybe next time.

yeah maybe, time will tell. but no one expected it to be an overnight success.

But why not? I mean, I'm genuinely curious to this "them vs us" mentality.

There's only "me" in boxing and he should get as much money as possible, from hearn or whoever is willing to pay.

If he gets 5million to fight a guy on the level of Breazele or charles martin or something, why wouldn't he take it?? easy money.

It’s not them versus us. Wilder pays a promoter a flat fee, versus Hearn controlling the promotion and dipping his hand in every pot. Besides, where is he getting the $5m from? If it’s DAZN money, it has to be on DAZN. If it’s the licensing fee on Showtime, then he gets a cut Wilder would rather take for himself.

Hearn doesn’t get it. That’s why he’ll struggle with these guys. He doesn’t have a personal relationship with these guys. And is not trying to other than throwing dollars at them. Think about the optics. Meanwhile, he’s dissing and dismissing people these fighters work with and respect.

He NEVER EVER EVER EVER wanted the fight NEXT. THAT'S THE POINT. This mother****er strung us along for 3 damn months to get to the same point he's always ****ing wanted. He's a scumbag!

In either case Wilder isn't making 5million on his own, so why not take it? I'm assuming it's for DAZN.

But what is the problem with that? For 5 million and a gimme fight, a one-off?

I don't understand why he shouldn't do that I really don't. It would be bad advice to tell him to take 2million just to fight on Showtime - Assuming he's not tied.

Well they did send a contract that remained unsigned for nearly 14 days. This has been confirmed by both Wilder's team and Hearn.

So clearly not true.

Seems like Tank Davis and Mikey Garcia are perfectly happy to work with him and also Tank doesn't particularly seem to like his current employer.

Think of the human aspect. After being snubbed for Joshua, there is no way Wilder helps Hearn build his platform. No way.

I think you’re wrong about them working with him and you’ll see why very soon.

Maybe you're right. But for 2-3 millon dollars? When it's all said and done this is just a game. It's not serious, it's just boxing.

Wilder will retire in the next 5 or so years, he's already 32.

He should be in the money making business right now-
