    link to Hearn saying that he made those offers ?


    ok, so there it is.....





    1) it looks like earl-hickey could be right, maybe Hearn has decided to make that fight

    2) the problem for Hearn is..... nonchalantly offering Wilder 40% NOW, kinda puts that 15mil flat-fee in context

    that was a flat-out duck

    but like I always said..... they know they will have to fight Wilder sometime, it will happen when they are ready

    I need to hear from Finkel/Warren before I do a full 180 and admit that they have stopped ducking Wilder..... but, it looks that way

    Wilder is not worth more than 40%

    neither is Fury

    neither of them could sell out Wembley, so they will not get a better offer than 40%..... if this latest offer/stunt from Hearn is proven legitimate either by Finkel/Warren, or by their silence (which is good enough for me)..... then the only possible justification would be if they have decided to proceed with the rematch, with the winner facing Joshua next

    40% IS a good offer, it is the best offer they could reasonably expect

    that is HUGE money, for a B-side

    if Wilder/Fury really want that fight, they will accept 40%

      Agreed. After they fight each other though.

        Please stop.

        Hearn is publically saying the fight is there for Wilder or Fury right now. If they publically say today they accept the offer, you think Hearn is going to say 'nah, Whyte got it'?

        Just like when he told everyone Wilder would get Joshua next but people like you think he secretly was going to **** Wilder over and not have Joshua fight him next.

        Do you realise how much damage stunts like this would do to Matchroom?

          No it wasn't. Wilder increased his market value to 40% because of the Fury fight.

          He didn't deserve anywhere near that before the fight.

          Unless you are saying Wilder is worth the same now compared to before the Fury fight?

            no..... not " just like ", at all

            they LOW-BALLED Wilder 15mil, then SHAT themselves when he accepted

            then Hearn mysteriously forgot to include wording in the contract that guaranteed Joshua next

            not " just like ", at all.....

            let's wait and see if this offer is legit, before we assume it is not bullshlt..... "just like" the last one

            I think it sounds legit, lets wait and see

              That was before the Fury fight. The poster said Wilder is worth more after the Fury fight. Your post proves nothing.

                    That's his opinion. I don't believe Wilder is worth 35% now imo. Without Fury or Joshua he's a 2 mil fighter.

                      Well done, you've just proved my point.

                      You said where was the 40% before. I said he didn't deserve it.
