Comments Thread For: Fury vs. Joshua: Hearn Aims To Nail Down Two-Fight Deal

[TexasCowBoy]

Wow I've never heard Hearn so adamant to make a unification fight. Let's see if Eddie keeps that same energy if Wilder knocks out Fury in the 3rd fight.

PBC had all the Heavyweight Titles (Ruiz and wilderquackus) at once but PBC hasn't been favored because the PBC company was started with negative energy....stealing and attempting to steal fighters (GoldenBoy and The Ring) is a big no no in life

Pay the necessary STEP ASIDE money and make Fury v AJ first otherwise it may never happen with both as Champs and will lose its luster!!!

wilderquackus is bent over a barrel...either he fights Fury or he is irrelevant because he got his @$$ whooped....there is no need to pay step aside money.

Hearn acts like he's in the driver seat of making this fight. Fight isn't happening on DAZN, Arum would not allow that especially with ESPN wanting to make it a PPV fight. Only way this fight happens is if AJ and Hearn agree to make this a ESPN ppv fight in Vegas.

I read the other day that Arum wouldn't allow Pulev to fight Joshua in the UK - well it's happening now. Money talks.

Remember when Ruiz said he was the A-Side and would never fight AJ in Saudi Arabia - Soon as he got some money and all the food he could eat, he was very happy to fight there.

Screw all these PBC and deontayduckus wilderquackus fans....I bet Arum and dazn will make a deal with no excuses....

It's great that we have so many expert promoters on this site.

Didn't Fury say he wont be fighting in the UK ever again?
I doubt Joshua will show face in the USA again after getting battered by the chubby mexican midget and quitting.

Does Eddie not realise this?

Why not? Ruiz is not scared of AJ.

So..... it will be in Saudi then, if it happens. Nobody is gonna match the site fees they can put up for any event they want to stage.

Am I the only one who's a bit fed up with these two fight deals? Fights take long enough to make as it is without being held up by rematches and trilogies.

This guy and his mouth will ruin everything. When a promoter talks too much, it stalls deals. Especially when the boxers and promotional companies involved on the other can’t stand such a promoter.

Hearn has ****** off Josh to turn himself into a star. He needs to stop talking. He almost ruined Josh’s career last summer with idiocy and overzealous self.

Hearn is talking about Tyson Fury here, not Wilder and his team. The only person on Fury's side who genuinely dislikes Hearn is Frank Warren, and he's now playing second fiddle to Bob Arum. Fury likes Eddie as a man, and trusts him as far as any boxing promoter can be trusted, he's said so several times.

Hearn and Arum have a good working relationship, as proved by them reaching agreed deals for 2 recent mandatory title fights - Loma vs Campbell, where Arum had the A side champion, and now AJ vs Pulev, where the roles were reversed.
