        That's Haymons vice president basically telling you which side is holding it up. When they want it it'll get done.

          I said this before, I never thought they wanted that fight. If they had taken that fight and lost then they would have lost the only bargaining chip they had for Wilder.

          Even if Joshua has lost he would still have a rematch, he would still be loved in the U.K. , everything over the last 2 months made so much sense, the fake 50m dollars offer which they didn’t want to meet or discuss because they were drafting Frank Warren and BT sport help to get the funds, the flip flop by Shelly in saying they accept the deal but didn’t sign a contract etc

          At first I thought both teams were playing a game to hype the fight up even more, now I think they played Hearn who in my opinion looks like he genuinely wanted to make that fight. I honestly think Team Wilder ducked AJ.

          Good for them because Wilder now is in a stronger position after he beats Fury. But they fool the fans with their games.

            Who gives a ****. Both sides have already wasted enough time trying to make this fight happen in the past. Both sides want the fight but only on their terms. And both sides have their own agenda. Once Joshua went to DAZN I stopped giving a ****.

                This is the first time wilders side have publically admitted they are holding up/will agree when they want too - as opposed to just trying to blame Joshua.

                Need to see who Nes actually reacted given hes constantly stroking wilders lil sack! ��

                Honestly though - wilder vs fury makes financial sense to both parties; they both likely can fight Joshua even if they lose. And for wilder - well I think 95% of people expect him to win, including me - so makes it make even far better to negiotiate with Joshua. Shelley finkel knows this all too well.

                    Are you talking about the last negotiations for the September fight, or the current situation for the April 13 fight?

                    For the September fight, the game changed when Al Haymon called Joshua's bluff with the $50 million against 50% offer.

                    For the current situation, nothing will be discussed until after December 1st (obviously), so there are no negotiations.
