Comments Thread For: Joshua: It's Baffling Why Wilder Rejected DAZN Deal To Face Me

[15 Rounds again]

Why are wilder fans constantly lying and making up sht that never happens

Tell me of the 80m offer Joshua refused from wilder then ?

He’s never had a solid offer from wilder

One email saying

Il give you 50m bro

When asked to produce a contract, team wilder go to social media saying you have 24 hours to accept

Accept what ???? You need a contract to accept for fk sake !!

Wilder wanted a rematch clause as did Joshua, that’s why it’s a two fight

I guess Pac-Man and Floyd were ****** people, typing them down to network deals through their career

You lot are a joke, wilder ducks Joshua hit you still keep changing what actually happened with lies

His handlers are pbc, the same company struggling financially who look after themselves first

Let’s take a look at their smart moves

Apparently Whyte is easy work yet they lost wilder 7m to fight for less than half

Wilder lost 10-12m fighting Breazeale on showtime than on dazn

Smart people apparently

You should be ashamed, Finkel an old white dude saod

We won’t let wilder go are his words

We are not interested in meeting or fighting Joshua

He owns wilder, yet you all accept that and makes excuses to blame aj

Delusions at its finest, majority of boxing fans know wilder ducked Joshua

I am just wondering how they are spinning him taking half the money to stay with them instead of earning more money on his own, maybe they are saying these 7k people watching you will be 70k one day and you will be making 100m fight lol

Keep dreaming

They're messed up mate.

Wilder himself has said Hearn and AJ are trying like fook ("begging") to make the fight. And they'll still somehow blame Joshua.

Only thing I can think is that these are very ******, uneducated imveciles who cannot discern what is obvious- and judging by the spelling and grammar in some of their (or should I say 'there'?) posts they're not the brightest bunch.

Wilder is happy to ducks nd take far less money.

I'll be at MSG, probably well oiled after Liverpool win CL and Toronto Raptors win game 2 of NBA finals and then I'm supposed to be in shape to watch Joshua Ruiz.

I'm going to die aren't I?

Lol

Will just say this

If we lose to spurs, spurs of all fckn teams in the cl final

I’m going to have a breakdown

I think they have beaten us once in like the last 6 years

We won half, drew less than half and lost one due to lovern

Wilder fans are just deluded, they don’t want this fight to happen and want him to keep the key hostage

[The plunger man]

Not gonna keep it explaining it to you. Your being silly now and pretending you dont understand.

as I what I said peanut head it was a 3 fight deal they offered wilder with the 1st fight being who ever wilder wanted to fight then 2 fights with Joshua one in the uk and the other in the USA.
Are you that ****ing brain dead or what ?

[davefromvancouv]

Simple. The DAZN deal was rejected because DAZN refused to reveal what Joshua would be getting for the Wilder fights. Since it's supposed to be a fair, 50/50 split, whatever Joshua gets to fight Wilder, Wilder should get the same amount to fight Joshua. DAZN later apologized to Wilder's team for playing games but the good news is, talks are still ongoing for a future fight with Joshua. It can still happen next if DAZN comes correct!

Also, since Wilder wants to remain a free agent, there is no need to negotiate for a multi-fight deal. Just a Joshua fight on DAZN and a Fury fight on ESPN.

[Raggamuffin]

Nothing will ever change about whose fault it is that the fight hasn't happened yet. Joshua's fans have been waiting for their best excuse to come along as to why the fight hasn't happened yet. Thy think this is th kicker lol... But fans have awakened to the cause, and they know that Joshua is either a ****en coward or that he has been the reluctant problem along with Hearn. You can foool people some of the time, but you can't fool diehards-tryhards!!!

[BOXING-SCRIBE]

any fight could be the biggest fight in history...but this fight isn't.
why are we suddenly throwing out all the data and pretending like wilder is a mega star? why doesnt the data matter? hes not a ppv draw. hes not a live gate draw. hes an ok showtime draw and that somehow equates to a 100 million purse? why?

Wilder is not a draw?? This convo should not go any further than this..but I'll entertain you. Wilder is a major draw both here and in England, the British love their events, I mean they backed Briggs while he was over there..they may have not liked him, but they would have lined up and paid to watch him, not so much because of him, but because it would be an event they could attend to. Now imagine wilder. Aj only sells in Engalnd as his fight with tubbs is tanking. Don't be foolish to your allegiance and be rational, there is no doubt in anyones mind that both could clear a 100 mil and the Herb Hearn will get his investment bread back plus some.

[MC Hammer]

Why did you leave Showtime for dazn? Why did you pass up on the 50million? Why not just make a 50-50 fight on ppv. Either Fox or Showtime get half and dazn get half and they move on. It's crazy he wanted Wilder signed to a broadcaster he isn't even signed to and wanted him to fight for a flat fee each time while AJ gets to negotiate each fight and could get 65 or 70 a piece. It's not baffling when start to think like a business owner or partner instead of an employee.

But look at AJ again using Wilder name to hype his fight that no one cares about

[MC Hammer]

All the buzz was the Fury fight too. Didn't do shit for Wilder ticket sales or viewing figures.

Wilder damn near sold out and had 1 million views in one country not that 1.2 million worldwide bull from Canelo. AJ on the other hand has a half empty arena to deal with and probably 15k viewers on dazn again.

[Phenom]

Aj literally said the offer was there to fight him. It’s here clear as day so I don’t know what point you’re trying to argue. Unless you’re saying you know more about Anthony Joshua’s business than Joshua himself.

Why don’t you stick to using the “wilder didn’t want to sign a long term deal” excuse instead even though that deal consisted of a mandatory he had to take, the fight he claims he wants and the two way rematch that was something he wanted in the original round of negotiations.

Too many of you people arguing for the sake of arguing it's DAZN contract just like AJ said , Skipper can't offer a long term network contract with promise of a fight (that's not legal in USA) it was a minmum of 4 fight deal and DAZN probably would've had options just like they do right now with AJ

What would've happened had AJ lost or something else happened you think Wilder would be off the hook from that 4 fights deal?

Now I will agree if both AJ and Wilder had been under DAZN the fight would be much easier to make but it was not contractually guaranteed

[Phenom]

I admire your spirit to keep on lying to defend wilders duck
You lied about a term tying down of network

It’s two fights with Joshua

Or three fights with one being for double the purse on his Breazeale fught

That’s not long term

Wilder wanted the rematch initially and a fight this big will always have a rematch as neither will fight without one

You’ve lied about it not being guaranteed to fight Joshua

Well Sherlock if it’s not Joshua then it’s an even bigger pay day fighting someone not as good for 40m. But guess what, it’s for Joshua as that’s the offer to fight Joshua and Joshua is fighting on dazn and it’s easy to get this in contracts too that his fight on dazn can only be with Joshua or whatever on this date

You’ve lied about dazn being able to afford it

You are now talking about some Ali act lmfao

You have been broken

This dumbass

There are laws in this country that protects fighters from exploitive long term contacts

‘(c) PROTECTION FROM COERCIVE CONTRACTS WITH BROADCASTERS- Subsection (a) of this section applies to any contract between a commercial broadcaster and a boxer, or granting any rights with respect to that boxer, involving a broadcast in or affecting interstate commerce, regardless of the broadcast medium. For the purpose of this subsection, any reference in subsection (a)(1)(B) to ‘promoter’ shall be considered a reference to ‘commercial broadcaster’.

Here is subsection B

‘(B) A coercive provision described in this subparagraph is a contract provision that grants any rights between a boxer and a promoter, or between promoters with respect to a boxer, if the boxer is required to grant such rights, or a boxer’s promoter is required to grant such rights with respect to a boxer to another promoter, as a condition precedent to the boxer’s participation in a professional boxing match against another boxer who is under contract to the promoter.


Now STFU
