    Edit : All this arguing will be put blame on Joshua anyway and when fury wins it'll be his fault like everything else as to why the fight didn't happen first. Ha


    that is bullshlt

    what a typical casual-fan viewpoint

    the " 5 times more than he ever made " argument..... is for dumb kids

    that fight is worth 100mil+

    give it a rest man

    it is clearly obvious who wants that fight, and who does not

    they shat the bed over the 50mil offer..... Hearn admitted it was legit, so did Warren, etc

    then they shat the bed when Wilder accepted their 15mil low-ball

    the fact that Hearn refused to include wording in the contract that GUARANTEED Joshua next..... makes it plainly obvious who is putting up roadblocks

    the team who will benefit from that fight not happening, are delaying the fight..... no rocket science required

      IBF, IBO, WBA, WBO heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua (21-0, 20 KOs), and his promoter Eddie Hearn, are standing firm with their position that a unification wi


      While Joshua was initially skeptical of the high offer, Hearn confirmed that it's legitimate and the money is there.

      Even with $50 million on the table, Joshua is willing to make less money in order to face Wilder in the UK.

      If Wilder wins, then Joshua is willing to make the rematch in the United States.

      "It's the general opinion of myself, AJ and Rob McCracken [Joshua's trainer] that because of the status of AJ in the fight and what we've built over here in the U.K. that we should try and get it over here because he has earned the right for that fight over here," Hearn told Nick Parkinson.

      "If Wilder wins, the rematch can be over there in America. We are going back and forth with talks at the moment and I'm confident we can make that fight. AJ appreciates he might not make as much money by fighting in the U.K. but realises that Wilder should be coming to the U.K. to fight first."

      Joshua has grown accustomed to having massive crowds at his events, which recently range from 76-90,000 fans packing a stadium.

      He doesn't like the idea of having his biggest fight before a watered down crowd of British fans.

      "AJ asked me how many British fans could get tickets if the fight was in America and could get over and I said about 6,000 and that's after we have done 250,000 in three fights and it doesn't seem right," Hearn said.

      "He's keen to do the fight in the U.K. and from Rob's point of view it's an advantage. If it's in September it gives us the ability to go outside and we would have to consider Cardiff [the Principality Stadium], Wembley, the Olympic Stadium, Twickenham and Old Trafford. AJ wants it in London preferably."

          “[The offer’s] great enough that we accepted it,” said Finkel June 11th

          If not for internet ability to look things up you wilder fans would be off the chart crazy, you just don't want to see the fight but its o.k it'll eventually happen .

            You're correct it was actually over 7 times wilders highest pay ,an actual casual would side with wilder and claim low balling by the way. no actual fighter has ever turned down such money offered and if he thought he would certainly win where Wilder claims he could knockout Joshua in one round instead he fights fury an event that is struggling to even take notice for less money, cant make this stuff up!

            Edit : Finkel acknowledged the fight was next and knew that in an interview ,he then said it was declined based on no date or venue wwhich he then lied about taking a fury fight knowing a date and venue which actually wasn't established until over a month later. Its alright you can worry when the fight happens because you are another one who don't want to see the fight otherwise you stop making lame excuses to what was supposed to be a signed contract so real fans can see the fight.

              Wilder/fury is nothing but an eliminator. Am surprised you are not aware at this stage.

              WBA/WBO/IBF/IBO belts are not bought in WWE stores, you fight for it. Let me remind you in case you forgot.
              Wilder is the longest reigning champion with the WBC belt and Fury beat Klitschko for the lineal/WBA/WBO/IBF/IBO belts. Neither champion has lost their belts in the ring, and they are fighting each other. The winner is the man to beat. Pretty simple to understand really...

                Joshua just turned down 50 mil

                your memory is hella selective dude lol

                when Hearn intentionally omitted wording that guaranteed Joshua next, it became CLEARLY obvious who was ducking that fight..... EVERYONE knows

                EVERYONE.... except you, and a handful of excuse-makers

                keep fighting the good fight sunshine

                seriously, what do you get out of playing the fool ?

                how does it enhance your life ?

                      Fury lost his belts, now Anthony Joshua has them all making him the man to beat whether Fury beats Wilder or vice versa. You can insist that Fury never lost his belts in the ring but you cannot dispute that Anthony Joshua won them in the ring and still has them.

                      You won't see AJ taking 3 years out to drink, take drugs and hit the 400lbs mark, yet part of being a champion is remaining active and defending, neither of which Fury did. It's Anthony Joshua then Deontay Wilder. There is no one else that could be considered a champion except Manuel Charr (who was knocked out a few fights ago by a cruiserweight)
