    stop with the excuses
    I don't know about that, but a contract is a contract and SKY have already paid for the rights to show Anthony Joshua's fights so there is ZERO chance of him fighting on BT Sports. It was just one promoter playing games with another, don't be fooled into thinking the offer was serious.

    If it was a legit offer then why refuse to say that it's Frank Warren and BT Sports financing it? because then guys like you wouldn't be spinning this bull**** as some kind of truth, you would've realised at the time that Hearn was made an offer he couldn't accept.

      Your analogy isn't taking into account the contracts, ya know, like Anthony Joshua's TV deal with SKY and the 50 million being from a rival network, BT Sports. SKY don't give a **** about whether Anthony Joshua would like to change his mind and take the money, he's signed the contract and that's that.

      So no it's nothing like the situation you describe

          "When they were putting the bid together, the offer for Joshua I helped with it... BT were very interested in broadcasting it. It wasn't about being on Sky it was about who came up with the most money." - Frank Warren

          why would Eddie Hearn mention multiple times that he wanted to know WHERE the money was coming from first if that information was included with the 50 million offer? because it wasn't included and the reasons for that are clear as day.

          Can you come up with one good reason why Hearn shouldn't be told where the money is coming from BEFORE he signs a contract for his fighter?

          just one, please......

              Try looking for the letter B and T side by side

              Finkel admitted they wanted to force SKY to bid for the fight and Hearn wasn't going to agree to that without any other details. You ever seen that contract with the 50 million offer on it? of course not because there wasn't one, Wilder was making the offer on social media ffs.

              With Joshua it is clear that somebody doesn’t want the fight. It has been well reported how much was offered. Joshua was guaranteed $80m and could have earned more. When they were putting the deal together I actually helped with the deal because BT were keen to broadcast the fight so I have seen the offer." - Frank Warren

              and there he is again mentioning it being on BT Sports. If they aren't connected to the 50 million in any way then who actually is? showing some random back account with funds in it isn't proof of anything really, and still no one knows where that money was coming from.....

              yeah that was a negotiation likely to go far

                thanks for NOT giving one good reason why they won't say where the money is from, it's really making me take your opinions seriously lol

                    Yeah, AJ turned down $50 mil in favor of home advantage.
                    It's not like he wanted more money like, "I want $70 mil!"
                    In contrast, this Wilder joker wanted more money.
                    He's greedy as f*k.
