    I think Hearn will come correct with Whyte. He’d be foolish not to. At the same time, they need to do something major with Joshua next to reclaim some of the luster so a US fight versus Miller wouldn’t surprise me. Since Hearn has no paper on Whyte, he can’t control what he does in that scenario.

      I have family in the UK, lived in the UK for several years so I must say...I’m disappointed that they let this two-bit hack get over on them like this.

      Hearn isn’t even a good liar. You’ve got to really delude yourself to stand up for this guy. Where’s everyone who claimed the $50m offer was fake? So we’re just going to pretend that didn’t happen now? Doesn’t change your perspective at all? Yikes.

        I think he has to do something major with Whyte to keep him happy! Usyk?

          We were told the same thing in regards to the original Ppv though. “Wilder would’ve been ****** to sign that flat fee offer now he’ll make more against fury instead” he ended up making 1 mil less.

            Whyte-Usyk won’t make Whyte happy unless he offers them a ton of coin. You have to give him the Joshua fight because there is nothing else in that stable that will appease Whyte. No wonder he’s talking Breazeale or Ortiz. Those are better back-up options for him. Hearn needs to get him the Joshua fight.

              The funniest thing is the article pretty much says that aj couldn’t sign the deal due to contractual obligations but they just skip right past that point.

                Not sure you understood what I wrote. Again, and for the last time, it’s about what is generated collectively.

                    Lets hope this leads to all the top guys fighting each other. It's pretty obvious the Hearns and Joshua now realise the days of successfully doing it all their way are over for the time being at least and even though Miller is not tested at any real level it would be good for Joshua to make the trip and get his face known.
