Comments Thread For: Hearn Hopes To Make Joshua vs. Wilder in November or December

Fury took this bums soul, he's been acting even more ******ed than usual since losing that fight. Expect Breazeale to spark him out.

LOL @ all you Limeys taking Hearn's word as gospel.

Look; Joshua is getting Usyk next, and Usyk is going to lay down and do the J-O-B for Hearn's cash cow.

A nice in-house fight, with very little risk. An easy multi-million dollar payday for both parties.

I'd laugh so hard if Usyk actually showed up, and boxed Joshua's ears off.

Fury took this bums soul, .

Getting knocked down twice, and having to be raised from the dead like Lazarus to beat the count is a very strange way of taking someone's soul.

Really? So he's going to do what Luis Ortiz and Tyson Fury couldn't do? Right.

Fury was absolutely fine in the 12th, just took his time to get himself together and proceeded to put a beating on Wilder for the rest of the round.

If Fury had been fit, he would've left Wilder on a stretcher. That was a 50% Tyson in there.

As for Ortiz, the guy is 50yrs old and suffers from asthma.....if he was 5 years younger he would've also sent Wilder to hospital.

Hearn is such a BSer. He is perfectly fine with matching Joshua against second tier opponents while making low-ball offers to the top guys. At some point, Joshua himself is going to have to tell Hearn to cut the crap and make these fights happen. I honestly believe that Joshua wants to fight the best. But he needs to wake up and realize that his own promoter is preventing it. I realize that AJ has made a bundle of money and can continue to do so regardless of who he fights. But at some point, it has to be about more than money. Ali could make big money fighting bums, but he sought out Frazier, Foreman, Norton, Lyle and Shavers. That's what a great champion does.

AJ, with Hearn as his promoter, has won the IBO, IBF, WBO and WBA world titles and he has fought Whyte, Martin, Breazeale, Klitschko, Parker and Povetkin.

He was scheduled to fight Miller and now Ruiz Jr. He offered to fight Kownacki and Ortiz.

All of these guys are or have been at some point top 5 guys, or top 10 at the very least.

What is Hearn preventing exactly?

HE/AJ/DAZN/SKY HAVE MADE CAREER HIGH OFFERS TO DEYONCE AND FURY. None of those offers were countered.

Please tell me what your issue is with Hearn exactly because I'm genuinely struggling to work it out.

Fury and Deyonce just do not want it. How is that Hearns fault??

Hearn throwing out kibbles and bits again, to the public and hope they gobble it up? First rule in the cash cow play book; they are never out of options. And what increases AJs options is he has three belts. Usyk could have and still can use his Ace in the hole WBO mando card. Pulev is the IBF mando and there is the WBA who could rear it's ugly head. And then there are the voluntaries. This why i was against Wilder signing that deal because Wilder could have gotten screwed. I know unifications are "supposed" to trump mandos, but that does always happen.

Look at Wilders record before Hearn and AJ arrived on the scene , shocking right ??? So why you trying to blame them for Wilder and Shelley ducking now ???

Wilders first 30 fights way more than AJ has ever had (or Fury) were utter garbage go look 'em up .. how can you pin that on anyone other than Shelley and Wilder ducking . Shelley was even saying publicly they were ducking.

Wilder should have been desperate for the big fights not grasping for money he hadn't earned.
