Comments Thread For: Hearn Makes "Improved" Wilder-Joshua Offer, Asks For Meeting

[Scipio2009]

Lol you just made that all up in your head but this is exactly why you meet up, to negotiate these things.

Check what was said right as the deal was falling apart and Povetkin magically had a 24-hour clock to fight.

There's no need for me to make anything up

[Noelanthony]

If they were serious they never would have threw out a crap offer.

If you were a promoter you would have done the exact same thing.. Ok maybe not you but I would. I will secure the biggest fight of my clients life and ensure we maximise our profits. My job is not to be fair to the opposing side. I just want to secure the fight by giving away as little as possible. He nearly got away with it too

[FreezeIzGawd]

Yeah well because he tried to play him it now will cost them almost 3 times as much as BEFORE......

So that shows they are CLOWNS!!!!

[Kezzer]

Confirmed:
35% or $20 million. Whichever is higher.
2 fight deal, rematch either way.

Will you have a meeting to discuss if we can make negiotiate around these to get the fight everybody in the world wants next year?

Wilder said it is not about the money he doesn’t care about the money. Then he said 50/50 or no deal, then he accepted 15 million now he is back on 50/50 again. He also said he wants a body on his record he also spoke his nonsense about bringing Breazeale kid in the ring. It’s all hot air really . You can’t believe everything you hear a boxer say.

OK, so are you suggesting us fans shouldn't fight wilder?

[KnickTillDeaTh]

At what point did he decide he wants to concentrate on Fury though?

this week or last? because last week finkel was saying he would be happy to meet on the 6th or 7th if the offer was valid. The offer is widely reported and seems to be a very good deal, but only now are they concentrating on fury.

Why not say in the interim, before the offer was sent... "dont send us an offer at all now, we're concentrating on fury" ?

Fury is now only worthy of being concentrated on after his theatrics and circus abilities of the last 3 days? so he wasnt worthy of being concentrated on before these press conferences, but yet it was "the best heavyweight fight in the division"

It's all one contradiction after the other lol

Well the biggest contradiction is Hearn saying Wilder was only worth a flat fee, and now Wilder is worth more? He hasn't even fought Fury, but he's worth more now? Like I said, you're biased, you only want to see things from the AJ Hearn angle. It only matters when they say their concentrating on Fury to you because you are trying to create a narrative that suits your bias. Why did Finkle say he'll meet if there's a real offer? The answer is simple, Finkle didn't think Hearn would actually offer a better more realistic deal. So if Hearn actually did make a legitimate offer, Finkle comes off looking like an idiot. Simple media games which still doesn't prove Wilder is ducking. It's a one sided, biased argument.

You said that Hearns new offer has been Widely reported, please post link/s

Here's Hearn confirming that Wilder's team responded to new offer


Sent them an offer, these are the dates we can do. ‘Thanks for the offer, we don’t want to meet you, we want to wait until the Fury fight.’ What’s that got to do with it?

If Wilder wants to focus on fury and his team feels the new offer would be low if Wilder wins, that's there business decision, and it's a great one. Just like Hearn trying to get Wilder to sign before the Fury fight is great business.

[Kezzer]

reported offer it’s:

35%
Guarantee of $20 mil
2 match deal I.e includes a rematch both ways
Requested meeting to discuss offer based on these as starting points

[Tyistall]

Wilder fans STILL saying that AJ and Hearn are ducking hahaha. You guys are truly RE-TARDED. I hope Fury beats the brakes off Wilder and Wilder gets nothing, for being so greedy. He's fought bums his entire career and now he wants to collect off that? No way

I understand business, believe me.

Problem is there is a difference in squeezing a few more % pts and completely low balling.

When I don't want to deal with someone I make them a ridiculous offer and that's what it feels like Hearn did to Wilder.

[chicken-]

Team AJ signed the contract. Wilder didn’t. Case closed.

Offering 50 million via email doesn’t count.

Show it on paper. Stop using the media to fool dummies.

lol, have you seen the deal Haymon and others just made with network TV? Hearn and the brain-dead morons who can't think for themselves want to pretend like Wilder's team couldn't come up with 50 mil as if that argument held any water at all. Hearn even admitted he believed the money was there but they never got far enough into negotiations for that to matter.

Long story short, 50 million was there, Hearn admitted there was no reason to doubt it, and they decided to make even more demands and ruined negotiations.
