Comments Thread For: Wilder: I Won't Accept Flat Fee; Now It's 50-50 for Joshua Fight

[juggernaut666]

He could secure a date and venue but that would have taken up more time. They needed to get the contract signed quick so as to keep the WBA at bay.

I really don't know how many times I have to say this.

If you put everyones intellect you responsed to on the last page and combined them ,it would still equal ****** !

Obviously Wilder was only prepared to make all the concessions that were asked of him in order to make the fight happen soon, now that's off the table he's decided that he doesn't want to, which I think is fair. He's not gonna get 50/50, anybody can see that, but something like 60/40 would be a fair split. Hearn / Joshua haven't come out of this situation looking good, so they're going to need this fight one way or another eventually. Depending on what happens between then and now Wilder might be able to set himself up in a stronger position to negotiate a fairer deal. He's got to keep fighting a high calibre of opponent though.

Wilder isn't getting any more money. It's too much as it is. Why pay a nobody all that money? There is no need to.

Oh, and Wilder isn't going to fight the top fighters. He'll be back fighting bums in no time, just the way he likes. You know what happened last time, he nearly got taken out against an old fighter with 2 rounds of stamina. They won't risk that again until he cashes out with Joshua.

I do, what I'm saying is, that this guy won't fight him. Period!

Joshua was willing to fight this time. But Wilder made his excuses about date and venue. You can't force someone to sign if they don't want to.

Yeah, I know. Haha. It's just mad.

Hearn was working on a date and venue to be in Oct or Nov. He confirmed it.

What you're doing is playing slight of hand. It's nothing but propaganda and bull***** with you.

How do you have a date and venue for a fite that's not even supposed to happen but no fight date or venue for the fight which u are supposedly working hard to get?

The difference between you and sane fight fans is we do not believe that hearn is without fault and incapable of lying and manipulating the public.

You're right...all these fans...all these boxing commentators, all these other promoters, and all these current and former fighters who think that Eddie didn't want to fight right now are just dumb. Richard Schaeffer...dumb. Lennox Lewis dumb. Showtime's Espinoza...dumb. Frank Warren dumb.

I'm not repeating myself yet again for you. If you're too ******, then it's not my fault.

What you're saying is when finkel told hearn on Sunday that he was concerned as to whether or not Wilder would be next hearn could do nothing but take my word for it? Couldn't modify the contract immediately to reflect that. He couldn't send a signed affidavit?

The contract didn't have to have an exact date for an exact venue but it did have to have contractually binding language to ensure that Wilder would be Joshua next fight. Such contract modifications or addendums take hours not days.

What he "confirms" on IFL is meaningless if the contract says something else.
