Where can i find the interview where Hearn says these things? Im not doubting you but i know its an interview that i havnt seen and would like to.So Hearn was lying when he said he'd been talking to Haymon and Finkel for weeks and they'd answered his questions satisfactorily about the 50 million offer?
Hearn was lying when he said the money was real?
Hearn was lying when he said Joshua was seriously considering the offer, but was leaning towards turning it down because he preferred to fight at home for less money?
What did Hearn gain from these lies?Comment

After the Fury fight, his team will be advising him to take the highest purse against Joshua. From a business standpoint, a Fury rematch is last on the agenda.
The only way the Joshua fight doesn't get made is if Wilder outright refuses to face him, in which case they'll advise him to reconsider, then he'll be told that Fury is unavailable, then they'll let him know of the $20-30+M difference between a Joshua and Breazeale fight.
If Wilder's spite is strong enough, he'll take the Breazeale fight. If he can be reasoned with, the Joshua fight is up next.Comment

Fury looked a long way from his best to me, and he nearly got KO'd as a result. Wilder wouldn't have laid a glove on him if he'd had more time to get himself fully fighting fit. I want him to be 100% before he risks fighting either AJ or Wilder again. I also want to see Wilder, in the UK, getting knocked spark out, which is what I think will happen if he fights AJ.I don't give a *** about the alphabet titles tbh. I want Fury and Wilder to rematch because Fury deserves to officially have a W over Wilder on his record. Like Fury says, nobody will remember the robbery in the future, they'll just see it as a draw.
What happens if AJ & Wilder also fight to a draw, what happens to Fury then?
I can't see AJ/Wilder ending in a draw, and whoever wins will have to fight Fury. There's no way he can be frozen out now.Comment

Hearn says he didn't request proof of funds because he knows Showtime will guarantee it.
Hearn admits that Joshua's team is debating internally whether to take the money or demand a UK fight. Hearn makes it very clear the offer is real, they're seriously considering it, but that Joshua's team may not be willing to go to the US.Comment

Again with the lies, i'm starting to think you're obsessed.
Why do you think Hearn was lying? Joshua has always stated that he'd prefer to fight in London but maybe an offer of 50 Mil turned his head to the point where he would consider it.
An open minded person would understand that there are always two sides to every story... Perhaps an alternative viewpoint might suggest that they were considering the 50 Mil. offer initially but because they couldn't get any communication with Wilder's team at the time of the offer... you know, when Hearn went to NY and tried to meet them to talk about it (I'm not on about beforehand or after Hearn had gone home) , they might have thought the offer wasn't credible so continued with their own agenda.
Disclaimer - In case your reality becomes confused again, this post is meant to only offer a potential alternative to your 'facts' and in no way concludes that anybody is lying (as is your default) anymore that it states what actually transpired. The truth is both you or I don't and most probably won't ever know.
I'm signing off now!Hearn didn't say those things. What he said was that, after talking to Haymon and others, he was satisfied that the fight would probably make a little more in the US than in the UK.
The $50 million offer had a 24 hour take-it-or-leave-it deadline, so I don't understand why people are still going on about it. Except that it's the only thing they have, I guess.
And Frank Warren has since revealed that part of the money would have been coming from BT, so there was no way AJ could have accepted it anyway.Comment

Cut the bullshit. Hearn said he didn't ask for proof of funds because he couldn't take the $50 million offer seriously, due to the ****** way it was put to him .. by a fighter, not the fighter's promoter.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ppTrXXJRVIM
