Comments Thread For: Hearn is 'Gutted' After Wilder's Manager Tabbed Joshua For 2020

[factsarenice]

Wilder turned down $100 million and after the Tyson fight...we all know why.

[factsarenice]

As long as Wilder can avoid Dillon Whyte and fight cans he'll never fight Joshua.

he is gutted? he must be a Liverpool supporter.

They're just waiting for Hearn to say one word, 50/50, and the same (or better) $50 million guarantee against 50% Showtime/Sky offer will be made. Unless Hearn makes a better offer for DAZN. He has yet to do this, so they are preparing for other fights after the Braezaele mandatory...

You know fifty fifty is two words, Wilder fans really are that ****** ...

Well given the choice is between Hearn who appears to have never been sued by his clients and Finkel and Warren who appear to vieew being sued in court for dodgey contracts as an occupational hazard I think I'll take Hearn.

Finkel is just an absolute lying scumbag who rips off boxers and that's from the US courts,

I don’t see the inconsistency personally, but only because I don’t think Wilder and Joshua’s actions are the particularly

The way I see it, Wilder turned down an offer which was the result of fairly extensive and close negotiation. That’s not in dispute.

Joshua got timed out by an artificial deadline on an “offer” which amounted to a headline price and nothing more. Hearn asked for a meeting and was refused... what kind of business refuses to meet when they want to make a deal? That’s how nation states deal with *********s not how business interests make deals.

The whole way Wilder’s team conducted themselves seemed shifty to me and contrary to sound business logic (going public with Hearn’s emails, refusing to meet, imposing artificial deadlines)

The offer made by AJ to Wilder didn’t have any of that funny business attached to it, Wilder just refused the deal because of “loyalty”.

That’s how I see this whole thing going down

Timed out lol. Hearn flat out said no, and this site reported it. Wilder accepted €15M, then was timed out when a date and location was requested, only to have Joshua-Povetkin announced the same week (also reported by this site). Bickering about that doesn't matter anymore though, because at this point both sides have taken actions that clearly say "marinate". If you're putting the blame all on one side, you're a fan.

Eddie is a promoter. What he says on IFL and what he does behind the scenes are often very different.

Hearn saying something on IFL doesn't mean it's true. His actions behind the scenes are often the opposite of what he claims on IFL. He's a promoter. His job is to lie to the public.

Well given the choice is between Hearn who appears to have never been sued by his clients and Finkel and Warren who appear to view being sued in court for dodgey contracts as an occupational hazard I think I'll take Hearn.

Finkel is just an absolute lying scumbag who rips off boxers and that's from the US courts,

Couldn't have put it any better myself. Finkel was ripping off boxers and lying to boxing fans when Hearn was still a school boy.

He's said it on many channels and is yet to recieve an higher offer from Showtime to disprove this.

Hearn repeating IFL lies on other channels doesn't change the fact that they're lies.

Hearn's position behind the scenes is that the fights must be on DAZN. Any time Showtime has inquired, they've been told the fights being on DAZN is non-negotiable.

Didn't Hearn "move on" from Ortiz after they claimed low ball but later recanted and asked for a contract to be sent?

Wow you again, still rimming Wilder? Hahaha in the last few days team Ortiz and Shelly Finkel have completely exposed Wilder....Stop smoking that crack.
