Comments Thread For: Hearn Explains Frustrations With Joshua vs. Wilder Situation

[Scipio2009]

To be fair, a deal doesn't have to be signed and sealed by 01st Dec but Finkel could at least take a look at the contract and give a quick response along the lines of;
point 1 - yes
point 2 - yes
point 3 - improve your offer
point 4 - not a chance
........and so on just to show a bit of interest. If they have to keep it out of the public forum and just say "we're working on it" to the press until after the Fury fight then so be it.

Eddie Hearn has already shown himself to be a man who deals in bad faith, full stop.

I like AJ & Hearn (Eddie anyway, I think Barry might be the devil). But I can’t see that they will have moved onto another opponent before the Fury v Wilder fight is done. So I think that’s smoke and mirrors by Eddie.

Who would they move onto? Whyte who might be out again on 22 Dec? Doesn’t make sense to me.

If I was Wilder, I wouldn’t negotiate anything until Fury’s out the way.

Nah I’m waiting this one out till mid December. Let them ppv numbers and gate numbers come in. Re-evaluate the market and negotiate in January for April get a signed agreement before February and you still got 12weeks potentially to press tour and train.

Lololololol.... This was why you were demoted as sewage disposal supervisor at work. You are not paid for you brains or decision making.What a ****** idea

[Noelanthony]

I think thatlll be the route tbh. The pr game Hearn is trynna to win is mostly due to backlash but still think finkel will hit Hearn come fight week with what they want in a deal and what the fight projections looks like and Hearn will have a few days to send an offer. Sending something now is totally premature let alone saying it needed to be done before Dec 1st. If Joshua was in wilder spot right now Hearn wouldn’t be doing this type of deal till he’s got concrete proof that he can get more in time than shooting his load off now.

I take back what I said. You are a wise man

Lol let's not act like he didn't just change his stance on this because of the backlash he received after saying that.

It's well documented that he said exactly that, we can't erase history and evidence.

He's conning the people, playing them like a violin.

so at first there was a December 1st deadline that you all were defending now he changes his stance and we aren't supposed to notice it????????

Exactly what he's been doing all along. He's an outright liar. How certain fanboys can't see this, I'll never understand.

Yeah. Now he is saying this. His tune has changed since they refused to give into his demands. Let's recap.
1) No rematch for Wilder (now there is an alleged rematch).
2) Flat Fee (Now some %)
3) Match had to be signed b4 the 12/1 fight or they would move on. ("Now let's at least talk b4 12/1".

Eddie feeling that pressure and seeing more and more leverage slipping away.

"I mean, I don't have to sign the fight before December 1st but we need to make some kind of headway because we know how much work there is to do."

To all the people saying why would they sign a fight before Dec 1.. Well they don’t have to. Just start negotiation so come Dec 1 the deal has been reached and fight can be signed ASAP. If they refuse to even meet to just “NEGOTIATE” a fight then they are ducking!

Just last week many posters including you were defending the sign before Dec 1 stance Hearn had (because aj cant wait until December 1st and whyte will be signed) now he changes it in mid air? and I have no idea why its hard for you all to understand that wilder and his team will not entertain anything eddie says until after the dec 1 fight. im not sure whats so hard about understanding that.

yeah but whats sad is that his fans will defend him no matter what. he can go on youtube tomorrow and say the fight needs to be signed by next week and they will defend it.

its sad bro lol
