Comments Thread For: Wembley Stadium Site For Joshua's Next Two Fights 9/22, 4/13

[MC Hammer]

Boy sit down

You are full of it

You contradict yourself so much and you probably don’t even know what contradict means as you are that damn ******

You just said wilder agreed to the terms, well he clearly never as he never signed the contract

15m is a slave contract for a guy making 1.5m per fight

Let’s put this into context, Floyd paid guys like Ortiz 6m dollars, wilder is getting 15m dollars you dumb idiot

Wilder is nothing but an internet warrior, he is petrified of a challenge which is why he turned down 6m to duck whyte

He refused to sign to fight aj for 15m. Aj signed, wilder lost his balls in your mouth and lost his pen

All beyonce had to Do was sign and the fight was on

He refused so we have to respect that, aj cannot force wilder to fight him

Now take your little uneducated McDonald’s stuffed ass and go to school you wanker

Boy you brits are going out of your way to protect this one, I guess its because you have no winners in anything else and you live on a cold-rainy-miserable island that suffers from ********* attacks like its in the Middle East. Your women have terrible teeth and you eat **** like blood sausage.

But again, Wilder agreed to terms, but Hearn and the gang decided that the terms of date venue were still negotiable and left them open. Team Wilder, knowing that a lot can change in 10 months time, decided it wasn't worth it. Joshua and his team have been shamed and DAZN will fail in the US. Afterward Wilder will Spark Joshua out for much more than 15mil.

And how the hell did he "duck" Whyte when he fought a harder fight against a guy that Whyte tucked his tail and ran from?

[The Big Dunn]

Wait a second.

You believe that all along Hearn just wanted to launch DAZN in the US.... With a main event featuring no US fighters, hosted in a non US country? Instead of Joshua vs Wilder?

Is that what you're saying? Because that would be quite a ****** business strategy.

Yes. I believe he wanted to launch it with AJ, who is his top draw. The Wilder fight would be a US PPV and not on DAZN.

Povetkin is ranked higher and has more name recognition than any US HWT except Wilder so I don't see how it's a bad business strategy.

[The Big Dunn]

What are you on about? GGG'S flat fee offer did have a date.... 12 months down the line from when it was sent! That was why there was no point him accepting it.

No point in accepting a deal 12 months down the line,then there is no pint accepting a deal with no date.

[MC Hammer]

Once the fight is signed Hearn can offer it to any platform that offers most money. DAZN would still have to offer a separate fee to secure Joshua in the exact way HBO or Showtime would.

It's a well known fact that Espinoza wanted it on PPV. It's also a well known fact by now that Wilder went back on his acceptance of a flat fee purse claiming 'loyalty' to Showtime.

Again, how will this be on PPV at 5:00p EST and 2:00p Pacific? That will hurt US money much more so than the Canelo fight. If the money was the concern then should've just staged the fight in the US where the most money would be made.

Also, according to Hearn:

Hearn told Boxing News that DAZN might even have got the Joshua-Wilder fight. “They probably would have done. So maybe he’s just got the hump,” he said.

So it sounds like DAZN would've been the choice for Hearn, meaning no PPV. So still no reason why it couldn't be in September.

[HURTFEELINGS]

It wasn't verified by Hearn at all so wtf. He said he never received a contract he didn't even ask for proof of funds he asked for a draft contract and when eventually received one it had unagreeable terms, these are hearns words. You think canelo would go and fight golovkin in Kazakhstan for any figure? Wake up buddy since when does the a-side give up home advantage. Oh yeah imagine Floyd fighting maidana in Argentina lol or Martinez fighting Murray in Manchester. This is 2018

Thats a bold face lie, the article appeared on this very site. Intentional Lie or youre uninformed
He said he never received a contract and in the very same sentence you admit he "received one", you're new here this is 2018, just as your profile says, or you're an alt
TWO THAT WASNT THE REASON GIVEN BY HEARN
Step your GAME UP

[PotentialToast]

Lets have Whyte v Ortiz on undercard. Salvage the wbc mandatory and give windmill a real fight.

[ukbox]

Ajs ring walk to the classic sound of "Maybe its because im a Londoner from Hertfordshire's Watford Town"

[PotentialToast]

And we are supposed to give a shyt because???

Go to youtube and the sky full fight footage of AJ v Klitchko. Listen in Wilder commentating at 4.40. In awe of the spectacle.

Again, how will this be on PPV at 5:00p EST and 2:00p Pacific? That will hurt US money much more so than the Canelo fight. If the money was the concern then should've just staged the fight in the US where the most money would be made.

Are you brain damaged or what? Of course money is the concern.

-Staging the fight in the US was off the table.
-Espinoza wanted it on PPV at the times you've stated.
-Buys at that time, and so close to GGG/Canelo would be less than if it were a month or 2 later. Meaning Showtime, HBO and DAZN would have offered less money. Joshua is NOT part of the original DAZN deal.

Are you following now? That's why a September fight became tricky and financially unviable.

Now I'm not a money man, and I don't know how significant that financial loss may have been but it's surely significant enough to reschedule for October or November. It seems perfectly plausible.

[N/A]

fact is there is still a contract on Wilder table.. get the fight signed!!!

That's such blatant propaganda. Hearn has a standing offer that is a completely ridiculous low ball flat fee offer and UK fanboys say "find your pen!" Wilder has a standing offer of 50 million that is the highest purse in heavyweight history, and UK fanboys are silent on AJ needing to find his pen.

If Hearn is serious about a fight in April, he will make a legitimate offer. Fights of this magnitude are always a percentage split. Always. Parker got 33%. Hearn knows Wilder will take 40%. If Hearn was even half way serious of wanting this fight in April, he'd at least offer something between 33% and 40%.
