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

[koolkc107]

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

By that logic, we should have already had the Joshua-Wilder fight.

Yet, we get ridiculous flat fee offers unlike anything Matchroom has negotiated previously with other chaampions.

No, if I am Wilder I get everything I asked.

Last year, Wilder said give me 7M and put AJ's name on the contract and I will fight Dillian. Hearn told everyone Deontay was insane.

But apparently the only part Hearn thinks Wilder is tripping on is AJ next since he is now offering the money Wilder originally asked for.

Hearn needs to deal in good faith, put AJ's name on the contract and stop talking about flat fees for the biggest fight in the sport.

I just want to put this out there so folks don't get in their feelings when this "offer" falls apart too.

If Hearn insists the the fight has to be on DAZN, we will know the offer isn't serious.

He won't even put AJ on DAZN in Britain; they just re-upped with Sky Sports.

If the business model isn't good enough for AJ, it damn sure won't be for Deontay.

why wouldn't it be ok for Deontay even if it isn't for AJ?

the latter makes more in endorsements than Wilder has earned throughout his entire career, and AJ makes tens of millions per fight now, not 1 or 2 mil after 40 haha

there is no bum deal with Wilder because he isn't even a draw, and 5 mil, 7 mil, 10 mil, 15mil, are all numbers far higher than 2.1 mil ... yet still Wilder won't sign.

Fury is no where near ready for someone like Wilder. For his own sake, Fury needs a good few fights before that happens... he's still trying to lose the weight.

We'll see how he looks in his next fight.

ha ha fast eddie has everyone on a string, hes the puppet master

wilder will have turned down 23 mil guaranteed for 2 fights from fast eddie, one of them dillion shyte, wilder must be loaded and not really want any cash, all he has to do is show up and beat dillion

[Sid-Knee]

Um, why wouldn't it matter? Ironic considering it is Hearn that keeps saying he has no profile, so fighting on a streaming service that may not even have 100k subscribers is what will get it done? No. Wilder needs to fight right back on SHO after doing great numbers in March.

Wilder will get paid just fine. Will make a lot more than one million that some are throwing around.

Wilder can go back to Showtime after the fight. He's not going to lose Showtime viewers after one fight away.

Turning down that kind of money against a good fighter and fighting a chump for much less shows Wilder to be a ***** if he does that. And so are you for supporting it.

[Sid-Knee]

So is 50 million. Biggest prize in heavyweight history. The exact prize AJ asked for and said he'd sign the next day.

Still turned it down.

Joshua has always claimed he wanted the fight with Wilder in the UK. Nothing has changed. He didn'y say "Pay me 50 mill and i'll fight Wilder in the US" did he?

Wilder will get paid big for the fight in the UK so no one should be having any problems with that. But I get your position. You want Wilder to have the advantage by having the fight in the states. It's not going to happen. Joshua is the A side, Wilder needs to accept that. Or go and kick rocks while the division fights the best fights they can get while Wilder fights his bums and struggling with them. It's up to him.

What part of the fifty million dollars guaranteed will, "most of the ££££ will be coming from"? None of it.

Where is this coming from then? Wilder's enormous fanbase?

[Sid-Knee]

What did he "earn"?

He ducked the WBC mandatory, he ducked the IBF mandatory, and he fought Joseph Parker with literally nothing on the line, so he earned what?

A win over Parker is better than anything Wilder has done, but you think Whyte hasn't earned it? Get the **** out of here. Who has "Earned" it according to you to get a fight with Wilder?

Ortiz turned down the July date with Whyte and wanted it at a later date. Not Whyte's problem.

So Whyte should have taken **** money to go to Bulgaria to fight someone with a lower ranking to Parker? Don't even dare to try and convince me of this rubbish. Who travels for less money over a lesser fighter to staying at home, Getting a lot more money, and fighting a better fighter? Which ****** fighter would go for this?

Stop smoking crack will you, it ****s with your brain.

[Sid-Knee]

Yeah I feel ya! Hearn wants the fight alright but he wants it solely on his terms which is not going to happen; Because that ship has sailed a long time ago when Deontay agreed to that the cruel and unfair contract that Eddie kept sabotaging.

Now Deontay doesn't trust him and see him for the liar and snake that he really is. Therefore, this is a new day.

Now Matchroom and Edward has either one of two choices to make. Either they can deal em up straight or don't deal em at all.

Lastly, I am going to tell you and other British fanboys alike. Wilder is happy with his current status. He is very happy and comfortable with the money he's making and with the managing team he has assembled around him.

So there goes Eddie Hearn's bargaining tool and leverage. It's not about money to him. It's more about integrity and the principle of the thing, when it comes to money with Deontay Wilder.

What are Hearns terms then? You don't know do you because you're just talking ****.

What lies has Eddie been saying?

Wilder IS happy being a coward I know. He's spent his whole career being a coward by fighting worthless garbage. But he is upset about the money though, otherwise he wouldn't be refusing the offer for the Joshua fight. So Wilder isn't happy on that count at all. Haven't you heard his ramblings for the past 6 months or something about how much money the delusional idiot thinks he's worth?

[Sid-Knee]

What fight can take place on HBO or SHO? Wilder vs Whyte or Wilder vs Joshua?

And yes, Wilder would be helping DAZN don't be a "fool" as you would say. Hearn is in a win-win either way. He puts Wilder on DAZN vs Whyte and that gets the platform more subscribers and even if Whyte wins, it sets up a big rematch with Joshua.

The Joshua/Wilder fight will go the highest bidder. Eddie has already confirmed this.

So Wilder should face another bum for short money because he would be "Helping" Hearn out? These excuses are beyond pathetic. Should Joshua fans call for him to not fight Wilder because it will help Haymon out or something? Haha. **** me.

So Wilder doesn't need to fight Whyte because he may beat him and set up a rematch with Joshua for all the belts? That's a great reason, man. No, seriously. Hahahahahahahahahahaha

I thought Americans were freaks before, but you've all outdone yourselves with this one.
