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

[Sid-Knee]

HBO will be on more homes than SHO and DAZN. Correct. But the fight will be on PPV so why does it matter it is on HBO or SHO? SHO has put together Mayweayher vs McGregor and Mayweather vs Canelo which were two of the four biggest PPVs ever. And put together the Pacman fight with HBO. So they have been involved in three of four biggest PPVs ever. Fair to say it doesn't matter which network puts it on PPV as it doesn't affect the sales.

I didn't say it mattered. I said Eddie would give the fight to the highest bidder. So I don't care which platform it will be on in the US.

He didn'y say "Pay me 50 mill and i'll fight Wilder in the US" did he?

Yes he did. His position was that he didn't believe the fight was really worth 100 million in the US like Wilder's side was claiming. So he said if it's really worth 100 million, give me 50 million and I'll sign tomorrow. So they said, here's 50 million.

To protect the launch of DAZN, Hearn convinced him not to take the 50 million. But there's no question the 50 million was always in reference to a US fight.

The fight isn't there though mate. Hearn doesn't want the fight and will make Whyte v AJ in April. Hearns been hinting about that for ages just like he hinted at Povetkin in September and said for a long time that Wilder is the ultimate roll of the dice and that they want to wait.

Hearn's offer will be the same lowball offer as before, knowing that Wilder won't accept this one (and shouldn't have accepted the flat fee offer before). He'll try to negotiate a % but Hearn will then use that to say Wilder is ducking and will then make the Dillian Whyte fight instead.

I think, realistically, the only way he can get AJ next is if he knocks out Whyte in the meantime.

If that's how you feel, then so be it.

And yes, Wilder fighting Whyte next would be great.

Joshua is the one acting like a diva? Yeah, that's bull****. It's clear Wilder is. He's the one asking for half the money. He's the one asking for a rematch clause even though a B side has never had one before. And he's even asking for most of the money in the rematch should he win.

There's your diva.

And you'd be the last person i'd ask for an unbiased opinion on a Brit considering your bias when it comes to us.

You believe every word Hearn says, don't you?
It's like you're not even grounded in reality! You have to be trolling because you can't actually be this foolish. It's like I'm arguing with Dustin Hoffman in Rainman.

Now show me what Calzaghe earned for his fights with Lacy and Kessler?

The article said 10 million was his highest purse. In Calzaghe's lawsuit against Warren, he claimed he was only paid his minimum of 1 million for the Lacy fight.

I asked you to give me a breakdown of how much money Naz earned in his fights, not you just rambling on.

I never claimed he took less to fight in the UK. Fights that were worth more in the US he fought in the US. Fights worth more in the UK, he fought in the UK. His biggest fights were in the US.

Stop with the sit out bs he has a mando he can fight instead you already know this don’t need to be a puppet to Hearn demands of just throwing roadblocks to the fight everyone wants to see besides the aj protection force

exactly bro. He can just fight his mandatory Breazeale for 2.5 million instead of fighting Whyte for 8 mill. Thats a good biznezz decision. These NSB bidness men are the real MVPS.

He should fight Breazeale instead of asking WBC for an exception to fight Whyte. Good business move.

[Sid-Knee]

Lmao you just saying anything now to make Whyte seem legit which he not, Parker has been overrated and he almost got ktfo by him

Not as overrated as Ortiz. Parker has clearly the better resume.

And Wilder nearly got KTFO by Ortiz. So what's your point?

[Sid-Knee]

Yes he did. His position was that he didn't believe the fight was really worth 100 million in the US like Wilder's side was claiming. So he said if it's really worth 100 million, give me 50 million and I'll sign tomorrow. So they said, here's 50 million.

Stop lying. I'm not in the mood for your bull****.

You can't dispute anything I wrote so you just brushed over them. Good one.

Stop lying. I'm not in the mood for your bull****.

If I was lying, you would have pointed out what the lie was instead of throwing a temper tantrum.

AJ had every right to change his mind. I'm not knocking him for it. I'm knocking delusional fans like you that are pretending his 50 million offer wasn't for a fight in the US.
