As iron mike once said to bob sapp..

"Sign the contract big boy..sign the contracttt"

That would be believable except hearn wanted to launch DAZN with a non US PPV.

LMFAO! Not exactly-Povetkin/AJ isn't a PPV, while Wilder/AJ is. Therefore it wouldn't make as much on DAZN and Hearn (which makes sense) didn't want to launch the service without the top draw.

Yes, that is good news. But it's further proof that the contract sent over was BS!

It wouldn't have been if Wilder had signed it, which he could have done .. if he'd really wanted the fight next.

Even if the British Boxing Board and other nations boxing boards are as pure as the new driven snow (which they aren't) the referee finally selected makes a big difference especially to someone like Wilder. Wilder will not outpoint Joshua and I accept that but he can be hurt and still come back and win by a devastating KO. If the wrong referee is selected it's like tying one hand behind Wilder's back. Would you really want to see that fight?

If you mean not selecting a referee that's gonna call it on too just because one of themselves taking some unasnwered punches then I agree completely

[MC Hammer]

Wouldn't maximise the US ppv numbers as canelo and golovkin is the same month. But the UK and Russia dgaf about canelo vs triple g, that won't be ppv over here

How will if effect US profits when the fight isn't gonna be PPV in the US because it will be aired at 5:00p EST and 2:00 Pacific?

Good, we are on the same page with that.

[MC Hammer]

Because he would not be able to maximise US TV money with it being so close to GGG/Canelo.

And Wilder was not guaranteed to sign any time soon. By the sounds of it, Povetkin signed and they are announcing next week.

It's got nothing to do with training camps.

I had to say this to the other guy too:

Hell, Hearn sounds like he wants this fight for DAZN anyway so no profit issues either on that one.

Signing a deal with no date and venue means IYO Wilder wanted the fight but GGG not signing the bad flat fee with no date was smart and didn't mean he "didn't want the fight".

Come on dude.

[True That]

Exactly.. We know AJ is fighting Pedvetklin and Wilder is fighting most likely Breazeale next so lets push for this fight next. PPl just wana call each side out, fact is there is still a contract on Wilder table.. get the fight signed!!! Whats the point of complaining who ducked who just make it happen FFS.

Heavyweight unification in front of 100k.. that's what I'm talking about.

That's all I want to see and all I care about is to see the Joshua-Wilder fight happen. Let's get it done, April 13th!!!

[asotgod123]

Put your alt away. He said plenty of times that October or November was the date they were looking at for a wilder due to conflict with the Canelo fight once it was salvaged at the last minute.

When that fight was up in the air.. it didn't look like it was gonna happen and it was a month earlier. Hearn stated at the time he met with showtime and Espinoza to take that 15th September slot and they would make it ppv in the us

No alts - I post as I am and not afraid to speak my mind. Provide the video or link that shows that Eddie met with Espinoza and said all the stuff you just stated. I'm waiting...

[MC Hammer]

Ok AJ ducked the fight, AJ is scared, AJ will get knocked out... What has that got to do with Wilder not signing?????

Why don't you stop being a "spin doctor" and you tell Wilder to sign?? April date could be the date Wilder beats AJ.. He claims he's been chasing this fight for years.. Well why don't you flipping sign the fight you chicken shiiii!!!!ts.

It would be shameful to tell Wilder to sign that slave contract after he already proved the cowardice of team team AJ. Him agreeing to all the terms and STILL not getting the fight proved that AJ/Hearn are cowards. No need to agree to those BS terms anymore. Things have changed, all the UK legends and contemporaries say he's a coward, and now AJ is gonna have to gives some things up to clear his name. Wilder should get 40% accept not less than 38 at this point.
