Comments Thread For: Hearn: We Want Wilder, We're Consistently Making The Effort

[NachoMan]

Eddie should just leave the offer be and move on. Wilder literally has no where else to go after fury while AJ has many opponents he can take.

Wilder will eventually realise he is the b side and act appropriately if he does indeed want the fight

That's hilarious.

[REDEEMER]

I'm just saying it is customary not to look past your next opponent. Maybe because Hearn is young he doesn't know how upsets occur in boxing. I'm saying I've seen bigger upsets that Wilder vs Fury. Why the compulsion to negotiate the next fight before this fight? It is you all who are puzzling.

Big fights are always set up beforehand,in this case this has gone on since April. Hearn negotiated a Klitchko fight while Joshua signed Molina,did that fight take place? When in the boxing business you set fights ffor your client which is Joshua. Nothing puzzling about that, its common practice.

Hearn only wants to talk to the media.
If he was "Consistently Making The Effort" then we would be
seeing Wilder vs Joshua, not Wilder vs Fury.
He should not be pestering Team Wilder in the lead-up to the
biggest heavyweight fight of the year, and Team Wilder has
every reason to ignore Hearn until after the December PPV.

i think he's being serious about making the fight now maybe not before.

Good. Haymon is a rational businessman, and I trust that he'll advise Wilder to take this fight.

how do one agreed to verbal 50million contract without any paper work, in the space of 24hours...?
wilder agreed to AJ term but didn't sign because no date, but went ahead to make deal to fight Fury no date no venue.. both side have had the Chance to make this fight happen but didn't. Wilder is not as seriously as his been talking of this fight and AJ is too quiet too, at least put some pressure on Hearn to make it happen..

it's not a contract. you agree to the terms and then you draw up // agree upon a contract, line by line, through attorneys. if you listen to hearn's interviews he says in his own words that he did not want to agree to the terms. those terms were 50 million dollars, fight in las vegas and this year. they wanted the fight in the UK, and it's his father barry who says they wanted it next year.


i don't expect british people to understand the difference between the things i am about to explain, or if they do they usually just stick their heads in teh sand.

venues in las vegas pay you to host the fight. really. they pay you money because of the amount of revenue they do in the hotel and casino. the fury fight was not given a date or a venue for that reason, there is a bidding process that takes place for a fight in las vegas. joshua's fights are in wembley stadium. hearn was not willing to give a date for the fight or guarantee that it was this year. he already had a venue, this is not las vegas!


again, you are buying up the idea that wilder's team is not talking to hearn right now because they don't want the fight. "put some pressure on them," you say. whateve rthat means. you know how you put pressure on them? you beat tyson fury with a knockout punch. you knw when you do that? after you beat tyson fury. wilder's team [al haymon and showtime / cbs and really nobody else at the helm,] is waiting to negotiate for the first time in this entire process. they will come to the table right after the fury fight with a hell of a lot more chips.

That Windmill will be worth bugger all after Fury pedcisions him. Eddies put in a load of groundwork on a mail order bride and while he was making wedding plans, some grubby lad is gonna defile her

Either way, sooner or later his home grown ****** will have to come out from behind daddy's skirt, uh, kilt.

[Scipio2009]

Just so that we're clear, Eddie Hearn isn't speaking to Wilder, Haymon, Finkell, or DiBella. He's speaking to an unnamed intermediary, who Hearn believes has juice with Haymon somehow, and he's offering points on the fight to the intermediary, yet hasn't offered points to any of the principals. lol.

[STREET CLEANER]

Why is this even news. They are not going to negotiate until the Fury fight is over.

Eddie looking real dumb here and anybody that defends this

[SAINTSTEVE]

And why did Joshua announce the date 6 months ahead of time unless he wanted to make sure and secure the home town advantage? No he has to negotiate for April 2019 NOW! lol. Newsflash if Fury wins nobody will want to see Joshua vs Wilder anymore. They will want to see Joshua vs Fury for undisputed champion.

[juggernaut666]

Too bad Wilder's side don't want it at all.

Neither does his fan club.

just another thread where you'll read all the crying from them about Hearn TRYING to get a meetings talk to iron out details...lol
