Comments Thread For: Hearn To Wilder: Fight Joshua, Take Control of Your Own Career!

[kafkod]

you sure that you aren't referring to 42 yr old Klitchko when Joshua fought him? Nice job trying to deflect that you didn't remember who Wilder's last opponent was.

You have been flipping and deflecting so much in this convo it's impossible to keep track of what you're going on about.

We were talking about Wilder's bull**** excuses for turning down the DAZN offer. WTF has Tyson Fury got to do with that?

[MDPopescu]

He'll only fight Joshua if he gets a huge retirement check, because he knows he's finished after that.

... his handlers simply don't let him fight on DAZN...

because you deviated from the subject and said wilder is a ducker implying he's scared of Aj. So I pointed out to you that his last opponent is better than anyone Joshua has faced. I truly doubt fear of Joshua is a factor here.

These are crocodile tears from Eddie Hearn.

We all remember how his daddy Barry said that Joshua shouldn't fight Wilder until 2020. So they are getting exactly what they wanted.

Hearn is the ultimate promoter. He knows that there will not be a Wilder/Joshua fight until next year. He is talking shyte like all good promoters do. They turned down a one fight 50 million dollar deal and then claim that the other guy is ducking. It's all buildup. For those that are buying Hearn's B.S, wake the f..k up!

You don't think that'd be important information to know? He could be taking a 20/80 split and not be aware. Remember how mayweather offered a flat fee to pac that was more than he ever got paid before and Canelo did the same to ggg and they both declined? Then when the fight happened, they got significantly more than those original offers.

I think there's a difference between declining a fight because you don't want to give up future options on your next fights, which is understandable and walking away from a large offer that doesn't tie you once the two AJ fights are done.

The AJ purse was an excuse from team Wilder in my view because they had no intention of taking the fight. AJ was likely on a 60/40 cut if you look at the figures.

Ultimately Wilder wouldn't be getting what AJ got because he simply doesn't deserve to based on what he brings to the table. AJ and his titles however are the reason that he'd be making up to 120m dollars, many many times his entire career warnings.

For awhile it looked like everyone would win. The fighters would make a fortune, the division would get an undisputed champion. The incessant arguments over the merits of each guy would be settled. Best of all, fans could've watched the whole thing for under forty bucks.

Still it's immaterial now that Haymon has made his point. Wilder can go and fight Ortiz and Kownacki, at some point when they've milked every last cent from the belt they can reopen negotiations and hope to gouge 2 or 3 hundred dollars in PPV fees from the US fans who have so ardently defended him all these years. Sadly Wilder may be past his prime should both men get to that point unbeaten and like mayweather and pacquiao the fans will get a poor echo of what the fight could've been.

The money men will be happy though.

Wilder is in charge of his own career. Like AJ, he is NOT tied to an network; and like AJ, does everything on a fight by fight basis. So what the heck Hearns talking about?

If Deyonce was in control of his own career he wouldn't have taken LESS money to fight on Showtime than DAZN for the Breazeale fight.


DAZN offered $100m to fight Breazeale, AJ, AJ

Finkel/Haymon appear to have an Breazeale, Ortiz II, Kownacki roadmap laid out for him.

Does he get $100m for those fights? HELL NO. He would be lucky to see $50m.

Deyonce isn't in control of his own career no matter how much he tells you. He has been tricked into continuing under PBC for THEIR benefit rather than his own.

He's been told that he's betting on himself but PBC ain't taking no risk, he's the one taking the risk of missing out on $100m, undisputed plus future earnings.

****** mofo. I hope Dom fucks him up.

Joshua vs Wilder would make more money on PPV. Why can't it be on the platform that will make the fighters the most money?

If it would make more money on PPV then Showtime would have sat down with both parties and made an acceptable offer by now.

From what we know, they have not made any offers and have refused to guarantee AJ and Deyonce more money than DAZN will.

Hearn has told Showtime repeatedly the fight can only happen on DAZN.

From what we know, they have not made any offers and have refused to guarantee AJ and Deyonce more money than DAZN will.

Who is we? Do you have a mouse in your pocket? You don't know anything. Why would you have any idea what offeres are made behind the scenes? You only know what Hearn tells you on IFL. You don't really expect him to go on IFL and admit he leveraged AJ to secure the DAZN deal and if he let's AJ fight Wilder anywhere other than DAZN that he's at serious risk of DAZN canceling the last six years of the deal do you?
