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

[Lemonhead_Jeff]

Hearn isn't dictating, he's just giving him a big offer but you still find fault with it.

Are you that scared for Deontay that you would come out with such nonsense?

Hearn is a promoter, he's supposed to get Whyte a fight for a title. No protecting is going on. Or would you like Dillian to get the April date instead of Wilder? Make up your mind.

It shouldn't be a problem fighting for by far your biggest payday against Whyte. Wilder would easily beat him wouldn't he? So what is the problem?

Why are you against seeing the heavyweight title unification fight that everyone else wants to see? Your reverse psychology doesn't work here. Joshua-Wilder is the fight to make. It's the fight MOST boxing fans want to see. It's the fight that Hearn claims to have been negotiating, but now he's offering Whyte instead. A lesser fight. And you're defending it. You'll eat any turd that Hearn sells you, and you'll tell everyone how good it tastes. But we all can see it's just a turd.

Dillian most certainly is. He should be the 3rd ranked guy at the weight.

Negative he is 6 according to espn look it up. He may have moved up 1 to #5 but 3 negative

What does Deontay's previous earnings have to do with what he should earn in the future? If you get a job as a cop, you're not going to accept minimum wage because you had previously worked at McDonalds.

OK, let Wilder go and fight whoever outside of Whyte and Joshua. Let him make his peanuts if that's what he wants. They are the only 2 fighters that come with a big payday.

Claiming Wilder is worth more is completely insane. So you must have a problem with someone to go this far.

If Wilder has to fight Whyte and Joshua on DAZN, then that shouldn't be a problem. He can go back to Showtime when he's fought them.

He makes a **** ton of money as well. Don't give me this nonsense he can't, because he can. He doesn't have a contract to fight on Showtime. Easy to do.

Doesn't have a contract to SHO? Sure, no Haymon fighter has a SHO contract. Doesn't mean they aren't SHO fighters or loyal to that network.

So Wilder should help DAZN a platform that is trying to hurt Haymon/SHO by fighting Whyte on there.....In front of less than 100k people before the Joshua showdown? Sure, that makes a lot of sense.

You don't know how much he earns stop regurgitating Eddie words

Maybe Eddie doesn’t know how to put together big fights local promoter would do well to listen to Finkel and Haymon

And neither do you. Stop copying that idiot WBC, it makes you look ******.

Hearn has put on plenty of big fights. Saying otherwise is just you being spiteful. Hearn is by far the best promoter in the game. Who else is making big offers to Wilder?

[Califire209]

If Eddie Hearn really throws a 7 mil offer at Wilder he should jump all over that fight. Strategically if I was Wilder I would push for the fight to take place on UK soil, head straight into the Lion's Den and KO Whyte
It would make a huge statement and prepare him for the hostile crowd at Wembley in April

Can someone with decent photoshop skills get to work on that "The Bodyguard" pic?

The fact is, Wilder is. PBC, Showtime , Haymon fighter. How is you going to make an offer to the Champ to fight someone who isn't his mandatory by throwing money at him with pre-conditions.

Plain and simple. Wilder want A.J and that it. If he beat A.J and unified the division he can blow up on the States bigger than Tyson. And then bring in his own PPV money.

You make offers to fighters whether they're a champ or not. But i'm sure you had no problem with the offer to AJ though did you?

It's a big fight for Wilder. At worst Whyte is the second best opponent he could face. And it brings in huge money.

What pre-conditions are they then?

Who is Wilder going to face next then?

Wilder will become bigger than Tyson? Crack is a nasty habit you know.

[Lemonhead_Jeff]

While Joshua fights Povetkin, Wilder and Whyte can get it on. Wilder would win easy, no? So what's the problem?

Then Joshua and Wilder can take the April date. That's if Wilder comes to his senses and doesn't price himself out.

So who do you think Wilder should fight then if not Whyte?

He should fight any heavyweight not involved with Hearn.
Hearn doesn't deserve the privilege or satisfaction of picking other people's opponents while he coddles his golden goose. Wilder shouldn't help put money in Hearn's greedy pockets until Hearn is willing to sacrifice Joshua. Like he said he was willing to do. It's like taking out a girl who said she is horny, then she only wants to give you a handie. Make her pay for her own dinner until she starts putting out!

Calzaghe did 2 of his biggest fights in the states. 2. Naz would do one in the states the next at home. So you're wrong on both counts.

I'm actually right on both counts because the numbers prove I'm right. The two fights Calzaghe did in the US were clearly his biggest money makers. Naz's biggest money makers were all in the US as well. Nobody is saying AJ should fight every fight in the US. What is being said is that the biggest megafights take place where the biggest money is. Canelo, GGG, Lewis, Naseem, Calzaghe, etc, none of them demanded to fight at home for half the money when a fight was clearly going to make the most in the US. AJ is the only fighter ever to demand that a fight of this magnitude generate half the revenue so he can have home advantage.
