    Eddie Hearn turns down Jarrell Miller and talks possible opponents

    Q - Is the Dillian Whyte fight likely to be next?
    EH - That's the one that is closest to getting over the line. Let's not forget, now that Deontay and Fury drew, we can sell Dillian as the second best Heavyweight in the world.

    Q - What happened with the Wilder negotiations?
    EH - Well, to be honest, it's a fight we don't really want, so we low-balled him and haven't heard back.

    Q - Tyson Fury?
    EH - With Tyson, we know he will only take 50-50, so we offered 60-40 and haven't heard back. Thank God.

    Q - What about Luis Ortiz?
    EH - No way. We don't want that work. A slick Cuban southpaw with power. No thanks. We'd fight Parker again before going that route.

    Q - Was the Jarrell Miller fight close to being made?
    EH - Absolutely not. You think AJ wants 300 pounds of man meat all up in his face for 36 minutes? Sasha Grey couldn't even handle that. Never mind AJ.

    Q - So, it's definitely Whyte, then?
    EH - Yes. I told Anthony that when you have options. Always take the fight that you can win.

        Sounds to me like they are going to take Miller and get some exposure in the USA

        But the funny thing is Fury AJ is a bigger fight than Wilder AJ...and Fury is going to beat Wilder...so the whole American market is a waste of time...

        Cracking the causal market in the USA is a very hard thing to do...Floyd did it. Tyson Fury actually looks like he would have a better chance than AJ and Wilder at doing it!

          Hhaha, very enjoyable. Still at the same it is a perfect example of what you guys been doing for the last year when it comes to Eddie Hearn or Anthony Joshua. You been putting words in their mouths, taking things way out of context, editing and cropping interviews, hell you even cropped a video of a ten second count, you think we dont have watches and smart phones?

              Lol that first one had me thinking this was legit cuz that sounds like a very Hearn-ish angle. Then you went to crazytown doe.

              Solid effort. C+ troll thread.

                Joshua is still going to want a Wilder fight at some point if he's still around so no its not a waste. If were being real here that fight will happen only if wilder doesn't have a belt because he has nothing to hide behind then and the fight will be makeable. Things people forget is Aj makes his opponents popular to ,hes going to have some U.S guys going there at some point it only benefits him being world known and shut up his detractors in the process.

                  Thanks man. Green K sent. Just a bit of fun based on how some people see AJ and Hearn. To me, it does seem like they have a few people they would rather avoid, and in the UK, whilst Joshua is unbeaten, he could sell out Wembley stadium and do PPV against Dave Allen to be honest with you as his casual fans are idiots who genuinely believe that Dillian Whyte is the second best heavyweight in the world. They'd talk up Dave Allen as the world number 5 if the fight got made.

                    Dnt be a foolish troll. I never said hez the 2nd best HW but clearly the 4th best without any argument.

                    It's that simple, if you don't like the fight, move ahead. There are many HW fights this year. Dnt stock yourself in AJ and hearn assz trying to feel funcky. You actually look ****** doing that. I thought you were mentally unstable.
