Comments Thread For: Wilder: We Tried Everything, Team Joshua Come Up With Lies!

[Ray*]

All this **** is FAKE. Anyone really believe Wilder agreed to 15 mil when he stands to make way more in a year? Every single one of these articles, of which boxingscene pushes out 5 per day, is bull****, on both sides. Behind the scenes, Im sure they are working together. haymon and Hearn have worked together many times. All this is just fake "negotiations" through the public to get the public riled up so they will buy the fight. They are trying to create buzz, and killing the sport in the process as per usual the last decade.

Yeah I truly believe everything is already done. Now it’s about milking and hyping it to maximise the profit. The more enraged people are the more this fight gets talked about. This has to be the easiest fight to make at HW. An Englishman v American for all the belts. If this fight doesn’t happen in April 2019 then I serious believe they have no ambition.

Tried everything except signing the fight contract

Complete whopper

Day and night, night and day .. searching for his damned pen.

Why didn't he just go out and buy a new one? What an idiot.

Tried everything except sign a contract that's in your possession and also refused to send a contract for your own offer.

Oh I get it! You really wanted the fight, but, but, but, but... This guy is unbelievable. If you want to fight bums in Alabama sports halls instead of 100,000 in Wembley stadium, just say. Geesh.

Lmao! Those cheap ass tickets! If Wilder fought fury, or whyte, bellow, haye, or joyce. in the u.k.. he would sell 100k live tickets everytime in the u.k..

You can't get an exemption from the WBA without a signed contract from Wilder. That's why he or Finkel stalled.

Next.

Enough of this contract bull****e. Let me give to you one of the more educated quotes on this site.

“No champion (with a belt) should sign a completely one-sided contract for a championship fight. Nor should they sign a contract with pertinent info left out (re: date of event; location of event).

A-side/B-side nonsense don't matter. A championship fight that is gonna draw world attention should be fair and equitable to both fighters - period. The AJ/Hearn nonsense was none of that ... it really is mindless for anyone to insist that a champion fighter should accept any old contract with any kind of blatant unfair and demeaning conditions in it. If a fighter CHOOSES to sign it (for their own reasons) okay, fine ... he signed a bad deal (knowingly by choice). But, if they choose to pass honestly we should all applaud. As fans we should want championship fights to be good deals for the fighters. No fan should be mouthing about a fighters skill, heart, or desire based on said fighter not signing a bullsheet contract. That would be a fan-girl talking. Not a fan, nor an educated adult.

As educated adults, and fight fans, we should want every fighter to get a fair contract, based on the risks and inevitable damage fighters suffer doing their craft.

I'm not anti-AJ or anyone else. But BS is BS. I never remember an opponent of Ali bringing a stinking contract to the public's attention as a complaint. They must have gotten a "reasonable" and decent contract for the time. That's called respecting your opponent, your trade, and ultimately yourself. Particularly in highly anticipated world event types of fights.

BS is BS ... all fans should call it like it is, no matter who you like. Only kids and ignorant people wear blinders when it comes to business (and "root" for their favs regardless) Fight fans want everyone to win and be well in the BUSINESS of the fight.”

Hopefully this fight happens in 2019, enough talking, hyping or building this fight up. Venue is booked, contract is there. No more excuses from either side.

Nope Americans don’t want to hear that........ “ we offered him 50 million the biggest guarantee in heayweight history it doesn’t matter what he is trying to say now, he is scared. No flat fee, Eddie Hearn is milking Joshua. They don’t want the fight that’s why they offer the flat fee”

Honestly the 50 million fiasco we looked sheepish. I’m with them on that. However, whether we like to admit or not Wilder has the power to put Joshua to sleep and who wants to be put to sleep or attend a hospital in the desert . You can not downplay home town support. 89,980 Brits cheering Joshua on in Wembley and 20 token Americans , 16 of Wilder’s family members and 5000 boxing, 1 hour run,Curt Henning and red foxx leading the cheerleading for Wilder will not cut it

The more excuses Wilder comes up with the more it looks like it's him who ducked the fight. How many excuses is this now 5 or 6 lame excuses as why he wouldn't sign or could not sign.

The Canelo fight being announced is what really killed the fight in Sept as it would of diminished revenue for Joshua/Wilder. Any attempt to have it in that month now would mean a lower purse for both fighters and that would just see Wilder have another excuse to walk away.

The WBA mandatory was always coming, it was due to be agreed by 6th of June, how many extensions does Wilder want the WBA to give? I'm amazed they extended as much as they did. They delayed agreement of the mandatory for 50 days that's already more than anyone should expect.

That's right when Joshua gets put to sleep he can have his own doctor and nurses attend to him.

The one thing wilder didnt try was sign the contract. and there was a rought date in october at cardif discussed with finkle so dont try the "you cant sign a contract without a date and venue" line. infact hearn and debella just made a fight with a provisional contract without a date and venue. the wba btw had already given 7 week long extentions for the teams to sort the fight all while the wba mandatory had been called in april. THE ONLY THING WILDER HAD TO DO WAS SIGN THE CONTRACT HE WAS SENT AND SEND IT BACK!
