Comments Thread For: Wilder Manager Erupts at Hearn, Joshua Over "Scam" Job

[juggernaut666]

this basically agrees with eddie's story in which he said there were "minor details" in the contract that needed to be worked out.


like the fight being in 2019 . minor.

hearn wanted this fight in 2019 all along. the pundits knew it and have been saying it. it iwll be bigger over there next year., it still won't make him the kind of money he'd make in las vegas.


eddie hearn is a conman, like any other promoter. i have no doubts that finkel was fine with the fight taking place next year, but hearn is the guy who tried to act like wilder was ducking his guy when he wanted the fight in 2019 and in the UK for less money.

again, less money! this is prizefighting! the guy wasn't willing to take his guy to vegas for the most money! hopefully we get this fight in 2019.

Again you seem to not understand that it is Wilder walking away from life changing money which is over 7x what hes made his highest and about 14 million more then he averages.

Joshua losing 15 million just to go to the states and give up the promotion advantages is ******ed ....

You can claim to be a smart business person but nothing suggests that bc what you continually post is backwards or not exactly making actual business sense.

Half of this ****show is irrelevant now, and Shelly still sounds like an idiot. The whole bloody world knew WBA gave them 24 hours, but Finkle didn't know?

These negotiations are dragging. Can they both shut their traps and agree on the April fight?

Anybody on this board still defending Joshua and his slimy white promoter is a p*ssy like they are...B*tch ass m*h****as 🚶🏿*♂️

I wonder if wilders manager erupted on himself and Deontay for having a crap 💩 resume and making bread crumbs smh 🤦*♂️ lol 😂

It's obvious both sides are dragging this out to make there fight bigger but what's more ridiculous is all the people who are choosing sides in this fake beef! It's clear Joshua is 10x the draw Wilder is so when have you ever seen a fighter who is clearly the B-side demand a rematch clause be written into a contract? Hearn offer went up to $15 mil and team Wilder agreed on the money but all of a sudden they're demanding 50-50! Its all smoke & mirrors from both sides. Joshua is all about his money so he's trying to maximize his profit. Wilder has been averaging $1.5 mil over his last few fights so a $15 mil payday is like hitting the lottery. He will not pass that up.

I actually believe Finkel more than I dare to do with Hearn.
A.J. said offer me 50m and i'll sign tomorrow and then refused to sign.....sorry A.J. that is a duck!
Hearn and his silly old man never wanted any part of Wilder and no so fast Eddie is now saying that if Wilder doesn't agree to the deal HE has put together for Wilder then A.J. will fight Whyte at Wembley in April..... sorry Eddie already done that and Whyte has looked average since.
You won't get a penny out of me.

Finkel screwed Shannon Briggs out of his money whilst he was in hospital after his beating from Vitali Klitschko and had to go to court to settle up and silence Briggs.

You would really take the word of a man who would do that to a fighter who put his life on the line?

[champion4ever]

Finkel is right. Hearn had no intentions of fighting Wilder this year. He not only scammed Wilder but the boxing fans as well; Especially the British boxing fans. He was already in negotiations with Team Povetkin.

Finkel has been around boxing for a long time. When he received that contract with all those loopholes and blanks in it. Immediately he knew something was dodgy. It was a delay tactic but Eddie was too cowardly to admit it.

You Wilder fans have to stop with the $50 million talk.

You can’t moan about specifics in Hearn’s contract being the reason Wilder didn’t sign, and then turn around and state AJ should have signed a deal for $50 million that had NO DETAILS AT ALL.

You can’t have it both ways.

Anyway, Finkel admitting here he didn’t sign and blaming it on Hearn from what I can see. He had the contract in front of him, and now he’s whining about it and even going down the conspiracy route.

Should have just got it done, can’t turn back now and say ‘we didn’t do this/that because of x’. Bottom line is, you didn’t.

Who cares about the details when you get the $50million YOU asked for and your a FOOL is you dont think they could of gotten it from Uncle Al

It doesn't matter because he is a champion. He's the WBC champion and an American champion at that. Which means if the two were to ever agree to fight, then the event would be huge; Especially if it's hosted in Las Vegas because when Americans fight the whole world takes notice.
