    What is clear is that either Wilder or his handlers do not want to fight Joshua.

    That is beyond dispute at this moment in time.

      The very article you're responding to says Wilder was guaranteed a minimum of ten million in his last fight. Why are you still lying and claiming he makes 2-3?

        I don't know whether they want to fight him or not.

        But it's easy to dispute.

        Hearn says he'll only allow the fight to happen if Wilder signs with DAZN, even though Joshua isn't signed to DAZN. Meanwhile, Showtime is willing to pay more for the fight than DAZN is willing to pay.

        So why should the fight be on DAZN when Showtime is willing to pay more? Because Hearn refuses to allow it? Okay, but how is that Wilder's fault?

          Hearn said as late as two days ago that the fight could happen on Showtime if they put up more money. Showtime is clearly not able, capable or willing to put up more than 100mil guarantee when their man just barely broke profits in their biggest promotion of 2018,.

          Nice try though.

            And in other interviews says the fight can only be on DAZN. When will you realize Hearn is constantly lying and contradicts himself daily?

            Showtime has made bigger offers than DAZN has and Hearn has turned those offers down. Actions speak louder than words.

            Let me know when Hearn offers a two fight deal with one fight PBC and one fight DAZN. If Wilder turns that down, I'll agree he's ducking. As things stand now, Hearn has still refused to do a fair deal. I personally thought Wilder would accept the 100 million, fair or not, but it seems Haymon has dipped into the war chest to match.

              That makes no sense.

              DAZN is a streaming app they don't charge PPV so there's nothing to take a percentage out of.

                  He himself offered Joshua, the A side by a million miles a flat fee and cried about it ever since.

                  Now he's been offered double that money, at least 10x his life's worth and rejects it.

                    They could take it out of live gate money & money they make from how many DAZN subscribers watch the fight.

                      I remember when a certain fan base was on here saying Deontay should take a 12 mil flat offer and be grateful. Dude said screw that and now is being offered the world. That worked out for him but if this is true and he's turning these numbers down he has to be crazy
