    I think people know exactly what's going on here. It's a PR play by Hearn. But Wilder is backed into a corner also. He would be wise to sign and lock in the fight or lose it to someone else.

    Like it or not, Hearn and Joshua are in a position of power. They have a track record of fighting the best and making the most money.

    If AJ beats Povetkin then he could offer that April date and that $15m to Fury, Miller or Whyte/Parker winner.

    And why wouldn't they take it? If they fought for Wilders title instead they would be very lucky to see $4m.

    How's Wilder gonna boost his star power without Joshua?
    After Eddie Hearn, and only after Eddie Hearn, Arsenic Trioxide, you are the very last person whom Wilder should look to for career advice.

      Who the Hell Matchroom boxing, Eddie Hearn and Team Joshua think they are by attempting to dictate terms to Deontay Wilder? Do they really think they are in a position to strong arm "The Bronze Bomber" an American?

      Americans don't need the Brits. The Brits need Americans. Wilder could earn more money fighting in the states then he could ever dream of than fighting in a small country like England and that goes for Anthony Joshua as well; A country who has a smaller GDP than the state of California.

      In the states both fighters could earn a least five times as much money in Las Vegas than Hearn is offering them in just one night as compared to fighting 4 or 5 times at Wembley in perhaps two or three calendar years for the same amount of money.

          Nobody is going to believe that trash again.

          Fooled us once then team Joshua did everything possible to duck Wilder and did.

          I hope Pedvekkn is getting nice and juicy

            Standard procedure in all the contracts I've signed thru the years at least... I always signed on my end, the venue then signed when they got my signed one, then they emailed or regular mailed me the contract with both signatures on them.

                    You're blasting out the zingers today. LOL!!! Actually, PSB not my tastes, but you said in the other post "She's not my ex & she's not a woman", so I guess you're the chap with the boyfriends. Which is fine if that's your preference. I don't really care. As for concerts I promoted, usually metal bands, ones you've probably never heard of. Any other wacko comments or questions. Maybe get your batting average above .0000000037? C'mon, you can do this.
                    Ha!

                      Ok. Be honest now. Do you really think wilder beating Breazeale makes the fight bigger?
