Comments Thread For: Wilder Manager: Maybe This is Hearn's Way of Killing April Too?

[aboutfkntime]

There are some naive, nationalistic dumbass fans in this thread.

Wilder asks for 50/50 which he'll never get, yet it's Joshua who's trying to kill the fight?

And we have this gem:

Really? Joshua knocked out Takam and boxed to an easy, near shutout decision against Parker. Wilder knocked out an overweight Stiverne who hasn't boxed in 2 years, and barely survived against Ortiz, almost getting KTFO in the 7th round.

Yet somehow it's clear to Finkle that Wilder looked better? I don't play sides between these 2, but Wilder and his team consistently look like imbeciles. Hearn looks a little too smooth often, but that's better than looking like a complete idiots.

why say that josef ?

FACT: Wilder accepted 15mil, which is SCRUB-MONEY..... and yet Hearn still refused to guarantee Joshua NEXT

there is nothing true in your post

hes the B side. he doesnt dictate anything and he knows it. its the anthony joshua show and hes earnt it by taking the risks that wilder never took and moving his career on quickly. no other fighter has had problems with negotiating with hearn, only wilder.

so being the a side means the b side has to sign things they never agreed to?

Going back to demanding 50/50 is maybe Wilder's way of killing the fight.

Or maybe both sides are playing games?

Damn .. if $15million is scrub money then Haymon should be in the dock on a charge of modern day slavery with what he's been paying Deontay.

Lol Eddie is so greasy
He's saying that Wilder will deserve less but even he knows that is not true.
By April we'll have had several more months of noise around this fight. It has essentially been promoted by the back and forth that has been going on between the 2 sides. If anything Wilder would be bringing MORE to the table just because of the increased hype around the match.
Full credit to Eddie though. Playing it this way (especially so far out from April) is a smart negotiating tactic. I would do it too if I was him lol

I thought Hearn didn’t care about AJ’s worth , that’s one reason why he didn’t accept the 50 million? He wasn’t going to sell out now they want to give Deontay even less than 15 million? Yeah they will keep lowballing and make this look like wilder is avoiding. What a scumbag Hearn is.

This is the truth of the matter. Wilder is my man but hes asking for a wage he shouldnt get yet. Get the best payday you can and when you win and he will, you are side A.

Wilder was able to guarantee fifty million for AJ for a fight in America. What money has AJ even offered yet alone guaranteed Wilder to fight anywhere that approaches fifty million for either of them??? As far as I am concerned, the fighter who can guarantee the biggest purse is the A side. Look, GGG has the belts; however, Canelo is suppose to be the A side because Canelo is the one who'll bring the fans to make the purse. See? The guy who guarantees the biggest payday is the A side. Unless of course we are dumb enough to forget all the Canelo reasoning which makes him the A side despite GGG having the titles. So, Wilder guarantees fifty million for AJ, and AJ can't come close to guaranteeing that amount of money for anybody. so, who is the A side, and who is the B side??? Why? Because Eddie Hernia says so? Are you that ******? Others may be, but I'm asking is you are. Are you?

I said it before and I'll say it again. Boxing always comes full circle. Cowards can run but they can't hide.
