Let's look at some simple and clear facts.
1. Wilder's supposed 50M 'offer' was verbal and was not backed by any written terms and conditions.
2. It is wrong to say it was declined, they simply asked to see written terms - when they were told they had to sign an historical world heavyweight title event without even knowing where it would be, or any other terms and conditions, they simply said no thanks, declining it for the ridiculous proposal it was.
3. Hearn and co have made many attempts to reach Finkel and Wilder, who don't answer the phone. Literally, they won't pick up the calls lol
4. A genuine offer in excess of $100,000,000.00 was handed to Wilder, but that was not enough for the bronze medalist.
5. Wilder talked openly of fighting Ruiz, but won't engage in a conversation about fighting AJ.
For a guy who runs his mouth about "one name one face" he has made zero effort to make the fight. This has had the effect of him appearing to be driving a hard bargain, when in actuality he simply don't want it. He's been offered way more than he deserves. He will get offered 50/50 and turn it down, or make an excuse.
Folks, these are FACTS. His ducking is driving the price up, but he still don't want AJ. Or Whyte, who would end that hype train. Hopefully Fury puts boxing fans out of their misery and takes the belt, but Fury is hardly very active either, fighting Otto Wallin types. Gimme AJ or Whyte or any American heavyweight who will make fights happen - not this idiot colluding with the WBC. They're hurting our sport.
