Comments Thread For: Hearn To Wilder, Fury: We Run The Show, You Didn't Even Sell Out

[Nomadic]

AJ already told his fans, if you want to fight Wilder, go train and fight him yourself. I'm pretty sure he going to say the same about Fury after this weekend.

Ever heard of mandatories? Ever heard that Fury-Wilder had a guaranteed rematch stipulation? Why in the world would AJ challenge down when these two can risk their O’s against each other? I’m not defending him, I think Fury is the best heavyweight despite not having the belts. AJ commands money and viewers. Hard to tell the A side what they’re going to do or not do.

So why aren't they calling the shot to fight Wilder or Fury in April?

Bye-bye, hearn. Nobody wants to hear sour looser and we feel your sourness even through your bravado.

It's unfortunate you guys are feeling bad about the situation. If wilder had taking the risks AJ took, maybe he would have been in AJ's position. That aside, if Fury has not gone into oblivion, maybe he would have been #1. Neither of the situations were AJ's fault.

So if you want to fight the champ, you fight on the champs terms. It's boxing not a charity sport.

That mindset will lead to an immediate Wilder-Fury II a fight that sells 1Million over here while AJ is fighting Usyk and no one but hardcores will care. His last fight suffered 1/3 ppv percentage loss and we will continue to see losses as long as he keeps going the way he is. AJ might want to sign with Haymon once his 3 year bid with Hearn is up.

Fair comment

My bad

No worries. A ton of things get lost through text. Which i believe is the cause of most fights here on the forums. Nice if they had a video conference feature

The rematch was based on a Fury win. Has nothing to do with my question. So it's about keeping your 0? It just makes no sense that Joshua isn't following up on his declaration that he wanted to fight Wilder and that negotiations had to start immediately.

No boxer who is active can sale out an area besides Canelo and Pacquiao. Maybe broner and Crawford maybe. Joshua can't do it.

Someone is butthurt cause he knows the big pay off that was coming his way is not gonna be there soon enough and by the time the fight with wilder or fury gets done, the terms wouldn't be the same as they could have been a month ago.

Did Mayweather v McGregor sell out?! Fvuk selling out, let’s talk about ppv revenue and live gate numbers. 320,000+ at $75$ a pop verse 1M at 25 quid ppv. And compare live gate numbers. AJ events probably gross $1M more and like gate is probably comparable since the tickets are cheaper in the uk. Therefore wilder is worth more than $15 million flat fee. If it’s not close to 60/40 AJ than wilder should freeze him out. UK fans will get tired of spending money to see AJ fight bums like Dillian Whyte.
