Comments Thread For: Hearn To Make "Huge" Offer To Wilder, For Whyte Bout in NYC

[killakali]

Double what he will get to fight anyone else but AJ. And according to every Wilder fan on this forum, Whyte was an irrelevant win on AJ’s record, cos Whyte is apparently terrible, so surely Wilder would jump at this, easy work right?

exactky and for 8mil

I think he did say he would fight Whyte if AJ was guaranteed to be next.

In this case, would Hearn require the fight be on DAZN and that Wilder accept the flat fee for Joshua in order for this deal to be made?

AJ, Wilder, Ortiz, Miller, Whyte, Chisora. All combinations between them are ok.

Tyson Fury still needs a tune up. Povetkin will be done when he loses against AJ.

Anything to keep him away from Joshua.

If Hearn can guarantee that AJ is next and that it will not be some absurd flat fee offer when they fight in April, I say Wilder needs to take this fight.

Then again, with Fast Eddie, the devil is always in (or missing from) the details...bet Eddie wants it for DAZN and if that is the case, it may be dead in the water.

He should take it either way if he believes he can beat Whyte. If he beats Whyte he not only puts himself in a stronger position in negiotiations but eliminates the number one alternative Joshua can take on

How is fighting a guy on a platform with zero subcribers going to give Deontay Wilder exposure? Especially when Wilder and his camp having just done 1.2m homes on their last fight, and Sky Sports already willing to buy Wilder's UK rights on the market.

Dollar figure is whatever, but Wilder gets a voluntary defense on an established network, while still keeping 85%-90% of whatever money is cleared on the event for the fighters.

If Eddie Hearn truly thinks that the IBF is going to let him stall out a voluntary defense until April for Joshua-Whyte, and not force him to make his mandatory against Pulev, you're hilarious.

I think its a better fight for Wilder than a Breazele fight. I doubt anyone can deny that. More money for Wilder, more exposure for Wilder, gets rid of the guy that Joshua might turn to for april.. And his opponent is just coming off PPV. Calculated moves.

No thank you, make the Wilder vs Joshua fight already.

Ortiz vs Whyte on the undercard would be cool though

LOL at the Wilderholics making excuses YET AGAIN for their lord-and-master Wilder. Here's a big money fight for your idol, yet you STILL won't just shut the he!! up and be happy for it. Oh, your guy isn't being respected enough? Pfffffft at you clowns. You're just skeered Whyte embarrasses Wilder. End of story. If not? Then just shut up and let the fight happen. I've had it with your Wilder twits.

Wilder stated in the past that he would fight Whyte for $5 million, not the $3 million originally offered to fight him in the UK. Wilder will put your Whyte to sleep. AJ stopped Whyte, Wilder puts him out cold. I will bet you at 3-1 WHEN they sign to fight.

Wilder wanted 7 million and AJ guaranteed next in order to fight Whyte. That was to fight Whyte in the UK. Instead he will be offered 7.6 million plus the fight being in the US. Fantastic offer! Let's see if Wilder lives up to his word.

Oh damn, people around here aren't going to like that line of argument
