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

[cameltoe]

I have absolutely no qualms in you believing that . I see it slightly different from you. Wilder is athletic and dynamic but he doesn’t use his attributes to his potential. He came up against an ancient ponderous Ortiz and he made Ortiz look like the quicker fighter. We will detonate on that chin you better believe it. Anyone that fights Wilder , at least hits him and we will be no different only this time he will be hit harder than he has ever been hit. All those legs days he missed in the gym the minute he gets hit with the golden bomber uppercut he is hitting the deck. Just to be respectful to your charge too ,we ( it’s a joint effort) are under no illusion that if he connects with the right hand on Joshua’s chin it’s nighty night

Wilder is actually pretty easy to beat, it’s just he’s never fought anyone young enough, fit enough, strong enough and with a decent enough coach.

His right hand is his danger weapon. We all know that. But he needs enough space to get it off. He can’t throw it in tight spaces and he can’t throw it going backwards.

He can’t fight going backwards and he can’t fight under pressure.

Keep the fight in close and keep him walking backwards. Give him no space and bully him.

Made me laugh when he said he would beat Tyson- Tyson would be a nightmare, stylistically, for him.

If you wholeheartedly support one side in all this then you are a fanboy.

If you strongly support wilders position and nothing else; fanboy. If you strongly support Joshua’s position and nothing else; fanboy.

Bottom line - most of the people involved in this is doing nothing but trying to lead a fúcking merry sing and dance for casuals to follow. They know for a fact that blind fan bases and casuals sit under the table begging for crumbs to blindly lap up. If you can’t see that both sides are at fault at some points or other then you are a blind fanboy. They are all being ridiculous.

I don’t understand why some people willingly let themselves be the pawns in all that is wrong with modern boxing. If you follow the sport and not just a few boxers then have some respect for yourself as a boxing fan and see these things for what it is.

shelly shelly its quite likely u have a contract for 15 mil for your guy to fight in april soooo the only one who can kill april is you

btw im sure this contract will not combust in 24hrs so dont worry so much about april

unfortunately u only have 8 months to consider this contract so u better get explaining it to deontay quick

he still doesnt quite understand his a b c's yet, he seems to be stuck on 'a' for some reason

Why are Joshua fans (excluding NoelAnthony and Ray) against Hearn offering a percentage split to ensure the fight gets made. Seems to me that if the fight doesn't make 100M in the UK the percentage works in Hearns favor. If it does, then neither side takes a loss.

It just seems that folks want to be able to say...Wilder won but he got shafted money wise so in reality Hearn won.

Why would I even trust and listen to this Winkel clown?
Same clown who worried about Wilder like he's a baby,
"He won't be rushed to fight Klitschko."

I'm not against Hearn offering a percentage. But Wilder accepted a flat fee and asked for a contract. Therefore, it shouldn't even be an issue anymore.

Wilder, publically at least, is willing to accept a flat fee. He would never have accepted if it was unacceptable. Don't buy that BS about 'just trying to get the fight done'. You're either happy with the purse or you're not

And don't forget that this works both ways. Joshua was offered a 50m flat fee against a 50/50 split with ALL variables in Wilders favour. Joshua even asked for a contract.

If you want to talk purely splits in offers then there ain't no way Joshua should be accepting 50/50, especially when giving up home advantage. And that's the only split Team Wilder have formally offered Joshua to fight in the US.

This post as usual makes no sense,,,,,

Hearn offered Wilder 12.5 which is 25% and then 15 million which is 30% of a 50 million fight.

You cry babies that desperately want to see the fight complain about money doe?

The fight is not a 100 million dollar fight this year ,just stop...lmao

IF a percentage is given to Wilder it shouldn't be over 30% bc the fight will generate almost 100 million by summer 2019...You guys want to give Wilder 30/35 million while Joshua has raked in all the money?

O.K continue crying about the fight not happening while telling others about money which you have little concept of bc a fight generating under a 100 million has nothing to do with Hearn and percentages ...wILDER IS GOING TO TAKE A LOSS AND IF HE WANTS A 50% FIGHT HE SHOULD THEN WIN THE ORIGINAL OFFER HE agreed TO RIGHT? SMH

On the other hand Wilder initially baiting a 50 million offer to Joshua on a U.S fight makes him most likely under 10 million...we don't care about money doe you accuse Joshua of wanting less money?

Well how is that possible when hes the one generating that 50 million?


You guys are the most brain dead fans in history, you really ARE...LOL

He came up against an ancient ponderous Ortiz and he made Ortiz look like the quicker fighter.

Ortiz is leaps and bounds ahead of Anthony Joshua when it comes to mobility and agility. That was the main reason why Wilder struggled against him because of his swiftness. Anthony on the other hand is much easier to locate. For one, he is a lot slower, too stiff, static and robotic. In addition, he doesn't move his head or legs all that well. However, I will give him credit; He does have fast hands for a big dude they're not faster than Wilder's but other than that Deontay will have a field day with batting practice on him with each punch he connects.

It was a nonsensical offer sent via social media. It was a publicity stunt. Once Hearn called them out on it, they had to scrabble round all their rich friends to try and get a loan to at least show they were able to get the money. They had nothing else.

It was never serious and it shows how pathetic and easily led you Wilder fans are.

Utterly hilarious lmao. Stop lying to the masses. You Joshua **** blowers will say anything to defend that flaming coward.

[juggernaut666]

I'm hoping that's the case. That Hearn is lowering the price so that maybe perhaps Wilder will accept $15 million or so when Hearn raises it back up after lowering it as a negotiation tactic.

But if Hearn is serious and offers a lower purse. Then Hearn is just as bad as Wilder is for asking for 50%.

This fight needs to get made and both sides need to be reasonable. And I'm rooting for Joshua, I'm rooting for him, but I have to be real, keep it 100 and keep it real.

Hearn will offer Wilder a 35% split...in the end or something along those lines bc this fight is huge by and IF it goes down.

This doesn't change the fact that Wilder avoided this fight THIS year to try and get more money.


Wilder and only Wilder can stop this fight from happening...

The reality is he went back on an already agreed offer and knows what a rematch clause entails and that's him winning to get his NOW unrealistic 50% demands.
