Comments Thread For: Wilder on Team Joshua: I'm Sorry Guys, They Played Us All!

[5000boxing]

Wilder without question wanted this fight. More than Joshua?? Yes I will concede I can’t question that guy’s heart but his team were not as forthcoming as him. Surely you can at least see that. Shirley is an old school multi millionaire and Eddie is a disrespectful c#cky millionaire . The 2 do not gel. This deal means nothing financially to both managers if it doesn’t go through. Granted Eddie stands more to gain prolonging the fight but Shelly is not innocent. That is all I am saying

Shelly knows how to squeeze more money out of a promoter.. an im sure he knew about the Povetkin situation.. and was trying to make hearns offer more money by delaying.. thinking they crack and offer more. Bc they wouldn't want to risk losing to Povetkin before the big cash out in the Wilder fight.. but one thing finkel didn't think about was what if hearns is bluffing and really wants Povetkin next?... which makes sense as too why the offer to Wilder was always a lowball flat fee.. lowest in heavyweight unification history.. from billion dollar hearn the permed worm!!!

... and what are Wilder's alternatives for a big money fight (other than AJ)?...

He can fight whoever he wants to. It won’t be the kind of payday that a Joshua fight can provide but he won’t be starving either.

No apology needed Champ! We know what time it is! "Son they shook, cuz' ain't no such thing as halfway crooks, scared to death and scared to look!" R.I.P. to Prodigy!

He should be apologising to the fans.

The fight was there for him. All he had to do was sign the contract.

The contract was supposed to be sent back on Friday I read and then the WBA made their ruling since this was decided. I suppose it could be at the behest of Hearn but I think more likely is that the executives at the WBA want the championship fractured. It was the WBA belt that was isolated, and protected by Valuev and Ruiz before him.

And he can still sign it for April!

Obviously he don't want the fight that bad and is quite relieved that Finkel helped him dodge another live body.

All we heard about his that Joshua is the A side and as such he demanded a, b, and c and negotiations time out you guys want to blame Wilder. Get a life losers! Get off the internet right now and go get some fresh air.
