Finkel open to new talks in October, if better deal. Hearn agrees

[Randall Cunning]

🙏 Shelly Finkel has declared he is willing to reopen negotiations for Anthony Joshua v Deontay Wilder and meet Barry Hearn face to face in New York on October 6th/7th, but only if they first make a “real offer” to discuss. [@***************]

Deal don't matter now til they beat Fury. But fair play plan it out I guess. Seems like Finkel & Wilder would have more leverage AFTER a Fury win + if he loses any terms they've come up with are dead anyway.

[Holler]

As a starting point and show of good faith, Hearn should offer Wilder a percentage rather than a flat fee. The size is probably a matter of negotiation, but the principle that Wilder deserves a share should the fight exceed expectations isn't.

How are they gonna talk purse splits and stuff before the Wilder vs Fury fight? It’s quite a difficult PPV to predict, but how it does could make a big impact on how much Wilder would make out of a Joshua fight.

Meh, however they make it is fine by me. Assuming they would have a ‘if you beat Fury clause’.

Joshua vs Wilder/Fury winner in April would be monumentally big for boxing.

Joshua cant wait til December to make a deal for April, mandatories are going to be called. Hearn's going to have to accommodate this if they are going for April. As Holler says percentage is a must.

I just hope that Matchroom Boxing in general and Eddie Hearn in particular is serious about fighting Wilder this time in April 2019 and quit pulling our legs as opposed to the last time when they proposed to fight Deontay Wilder in the Fall of this year but chose to fight Povetkin instead.

Now where are all those people saying Hearn should stfu? He's trying to make the fight and Wilder has been shamed into getting Finkel to reply.

if hes done with all the flat fee/nobody knows this guy from alabama talk then hes good. this is all ive ever said. he needs to offer a percentage. if he had done that in the beginning we would most likely have an upcoming fight. I also wonder if they will accept an offer from hearn before the fury fight. that could definitely change wilders demand.

Let's hope they can both agree this time.

Fair play then, but I hope they make a deal with Fury to then. Cuz that'll be the fight to make if Fury can win which I don't think is crazy is Fury gets back to close to his Klitschko W.
