Comments Thread For: Hearn: If Team Wilder Want Joshua - Why Won't They Reply?

[Ake-Dawg]

I don’t want to use the same old Auction analogy but If you have not even made yourself available to the auctioneer you can’t complain if it goes to another bidder. It’s not Hearn’s job to put in another bid. It’s for them to come to the table and state their worth.

They ain complaining.....but otherwise I think that's been done. Public statements were made about 50-50.

Nothing has changed just because Hearn decides to cry to the media that Team Wilder hasn't replied to the email he sent that never should have been sent.

If Wilder smashes Fury, then of course, no rematch necessary. However, if Fury wins (good possibility), or makes it a 12 round nail-biter, then Wilder should go with Fury! The contingency plan should be to have Breazeale fight Ortiz on the undercard! If Breazeale wins, he becomes a credible opponent overnight! If Ortiz wins, then he gets a well-deserved rematch! Like I said, Finkel has 50 million reason not to call Hearn...EVER!

Lol. Ortiz will KO Breazeale inside of 8 rounds. AJ should be fighting Ortiz, but probably not old enough yet. Whyte is scared shytless of Ortiz, so that wont happen either.

Why do you say that? Let’s say he is lying why not call him on his bluff.......

Good Morning Mr Hearn as you can appreciate we have a forthcoming fight in December but if successful we are more than happy to unify but to save us all the back and forth we will only sit down if we are guaranteed a percentage if not good luck with your future endeavours.

What is the big deal in simply doing that. You can’t bury your head in the sand and expect your fans to argue your case. Wilder is fighting Fury he is a fighter he is handling his business in the ring. His team are supposed to map out his future can they not be professional? They are given Eddie an excuse to go elsewhere and you will be the first to complain. You obviously want the fight to happen so why are you promoting the silent treatment?

Shut up, you know-nothing halfwit.

[The Old LefHook]

You mean the 50million reasons that won't be there without AJ?

Neither Wilder nor Fury will earn $50million fighting each other. I'll be astonished if they share half that amount between them.

What's this thief thing? Who is stealing points?

[The Old LefHook]

You can kiss goodbye to any hope of seeing the HW division unified in the next few years if that happens!

Who cares, man? It is their division, not mine. I don't make money, I lose money on the prick. Two overgrown halfwits pounding on each other is really not that important.

Shut up, you know-nothing halfwit.

You wrinkled little rat. You are 69 years old ,act your age. You haven’t got long you are probably in a nursing home getting bathed everyday by a male nurse. Probably wearing diapers . Why don’t you do everyone a favour old man .As we speak your kids are probably fighting amongst themselves on who gets what. But you are a stubborn sod you just won’t die. Boxingscene is keeping you strong��goodnight old man and good luck . I don’t think you will live to see AJ vs Wilder so no point you talking on it

Just so we are clear, are you advocating Wilder stalling the fight until 2020?

Because that it what he is doing by not entering into a dialogue with Team Joshua and standing by his public 50/50 claim.

If Joshua beats Povetkin, he gets to fight in April 2019 against whoever wants it. It's very likely that in the second half of 2019 an IBF or WBO mandatory will be enforced. These in themselves create a difficult environment to negotiate a unification, as we already saw with the WBA.

If Wilder waits until after the Fury fight (December) to talk about fighting Joshua in April then he is maybe putting a 1 month time limit on it and therefore limiting the likelihood of a deal.

I'm advocating for Hearn to offer a 35% percentage split now in hope that Wilder accepts or shut up about it until after Wilder Fury and likely have to agree to a 40% or higher split.

He is just recycling old stuff right now because it sounds good to fans like you.

Wilder has become greedy as f*k.
4 titles don't even have any value nowadays.
He begged for the fight when he saw AJ dismantle Klitschko, who Deontay avoided.

Eddie talking garbage as usual. Dillian whyte vs AJ already set for next year. Hope it's a massive flop.
