Comments Thread For: Hearn: Deontay Wilder Should Get "Less" Money For April Date

[sicko]

That don't even make sense Eddie...STOP! You're tarnishing your Image in the States but then you will need these same Americans to buy DAZN.

Maybe Shelly Finkle needs to do a Old School Powerpoint Presentation breaking down the contract page by page. Now he is just Minding ***ing the FEW Gullible but Loyal UK Boxing Fans and the few Americans who just Anti Wilder by Association with PBC/Al Haymon among other things I guess.

The original contract they clearly thought they was signing up for a fight in September not ***ing April 2019 potentially 2 fights from now in which anything can happen. So when Eddie is ready to really make the fight then send a new revised contract with a "SET DATE" at least

Sorry I'm not into protecting fighters, not attached to either of these fighters like that, I actually respect BOTH as Fighters but at the same time fighters have more of a say and more Power than the fans THINK. Time for AJ to ***ing SPEAK FOR HIMSELF!


Remember he was the one that DID SAY 2019-2020


So while Eddie taking the Heat and rightfully so as well sounds to me like this is what AJ ALWAYS WANTED was to wait on that fight. The fight is going to happen, they buzz is getting so loud to the point that they won't have a choice and the money will be too good for both to pass up. Maybe a rematch can be done 2020 In Vegas at the new Las Vegas Football Stadium

Wilder can simply keep doing what he's doing, get a guaranteed $3m for the Breazeale fight, another $3m+ to defend his title on CBS again, and a likely $5m+ downside on his debut PPV, with that figure skyrocketing once the casual PPV audience gets around to him.

lol please tell me who Wilder is going to be fighting on PPV if not Joshua. Kownacki? Breazeale? Charles Martin? Nobody gives a **** about those fights, it would flop horribly.

AJ raise his profile after Povetkin? Nobody here in the states knows who he is or cares to watch him fight. His numbers here in the states back that up. Even his PPVs in the UK have gone down since the Wlad fight. He isn't doing no million PPVs out there.

Joshua doesn't need the US market, he can make big money in Europe just like the Klitschko's did. America is not the be all end all of heavyweight boxing that it used to be. It's just the truth.

I didn't even know Hearn until recently but if Joshua doesn't face Wilder next then I despise him.

Most of my people only know AJ when I tell them he's the guy who turned down 50 million dollars. He jilted Wilder, AJ left him standing with 100 million dollars in his hand and a ****** look on his face. I wouldn't take her back if I was Wider.

I hope povetkin ices this clown joshua and the camera captures hearns reaction

I'd watch that video every night to sleep happy

I cant believe that Wilder still avoids that fight, if he would win that fight, he is undisputed HW champion with all belts and can dictate the rematch and will be a PPV star.

[Sktherealdeal]

He betrayed himself so hard. Joshua didn't even sign the contracts sended until now and they say the problem is that Wilder didn't sign.
Now he is getting ready for another season of stalling, the gameshow that is making a lot success in the UK

Sender? You have no business writing or having anything to do with English. Stick to Mandarin language.

To be honest, that's the only think that really bothers me out of this whole situation: AJ is 3 belt holder HW Champion and his promoter is doing ALL the talking. Obviously, I highly doubt that AJ is actually afraid of Wilder but how about speaking up a bit!

He can't. He's not dumb, he just can't. It's not in his DNA to talk. Hearn is afraid that his pockets will shorten even though he has money. That's just greed on his part. Boxing always comes full circle.

Why?

Promoters are supposed to promote. The clue is in the name. He pays Hearn to put his name out there and guide his career. Hearn is the only real promoter out there right now it seems.

AJ don't need to scream and shout on social media. He's a real G, making moves behind the scenes. He's the Al Haymon of fighters.

I get that trash talk in America sells, but the rest of the world really don't care that much. AJ don't need to trash talk to raise his profile and earnings. If anything his marketability would diminish if he got involved in too much trash talk.
