    AJ decided against fighting Wilder making 50 million (Hearn confirmed it), to fight Povetkin.......*check out other screen names recent posts (concerning GGG, accepting flat fees) you'll get a laugh, when you read their new positions)
    And AJ is only a draw on that little island, we saw his numbers on his Parker fight Then check out Wilder's #'s and compare

      Maybe Khan because of religious holidays, but that's it. Can't think of any other fighter who turned down career high paydays using the date as the excuse.

        Doe, Wilder and team were holding a contract for weeks.
        No matter how you slice and dice it, Wilder had complete control whether the fight happens or not.
        Look at the title. What's the answer?
        First time a B side turned down a shot at 4 belts plus $15 mil,
        because of a ****** date which could have been easily sorted out in minutes!
        Instead, he just let the contract rot for weeks.
        This guy wanted none of the fight.

          Yeah I remember clearly you were insulting Pacquaio and GGG
          for not accepting the flat fee offer.
          Now you're going crazy against Wilder accepting it.
          It's distasteful.

            i thought he turned down 15 mil because he didnt get a rematch clause, but realistically b sides dont get rematch clauses, i think him and his team are just butt sore after their mission impossible offer disintegrated after 24 hrs

            if a rematch clause for wilder is going to be a deal breaker then hearn will just go on milking joshua, mooooo

              I don't even get the rematch crap when he's been saying he will surely beat Joshua.
              It's also the first time a B side demanded a rematch clause.
              This guy needs a good negotiator.

                    I was here lurking weeks, months leading the Cnelo/GGG fight.
                    You don't have to check doe. I'll just tell you straight out.
                    I didn't have any comment. $20 mil is too big to be believed.
                    It's never been confirmed. It was fake and you clowns fell for it and now eating crow for going against it when your idol is on the line.
