Comments Thread For: Hearn: If Wilder Doesn't Take Fury Rematch - He Should Retire

[Marvlus Marv]

Wilder can shut Eddie up by releasing a statement of his intent. December isn't that far away now so say summink.

Didn't one of Fury's promoters (Bov Arum) have spoken lately about the Wilder fight? And, I am sure Wilder's manager confirmed that Fury/Wilder is going to happen too. Some reporters, it seems are just got nothing good for us.

From what I understand, the original rematch had to happen before August 31 this year, that was the contract, but it’s basically been extended to the end of 2020 because of COVID.

Arum has said it has to happen by the end of the year, although it could be February if all parties agreed on it. So I assume that would be resolved by the end of this year, even if the fight is Feb next year.

From what I gather though, if Wilder basically doesn’t sign any contract by the end of December, the clause is no longer valid.

Hearn needs to look at his own cash cow. Not whine on about a dangerous punching Heavyweight they clearly ducked.
Aj won't be fighting Fury any time soon.
Ajs fighting Pulev & Usyk if he gets past Chisora.
By then Whyte if he wins will be put back in the way of Undesputed just like Wilder in 18 & Fury until Pov khtfo!
Then it will be another old can recycled Aj mandatory.
Never fought a top 2 heavyweight & maybe never will.

Fury is contracted to fight Wilder next. Unless Wilder releases him from that contract then Fury can't fight anyone else.

Eddie Hearn needs to worry about Usyk wanting his mandatory shot at Joshua after Pulev.

If poor reading comprehension and selective reading were a person it would be you.

Hearn didn't say Wilder must go into retirement because of one loss, he said he must go into retirement IF HE DUCKS THE FURY REMATCH.

Do you know what "if" means?

If means on the condition that follows that word.

Personally, and I think most logical, unbiased boxing fans should agree.

If you refuse to try and reclaim your title, then what the hell is the point of you boxing, what is the point of us watching you?

Also, Hearn is definitely not hating on Wilder, this is obvious because he goes on to say that he doesn't actually believe Wilder will duck because "he is made of much more than that"

Get it? You know what that means right? It means that Hearn believes Wilder is a brave warrior who won't cave in that easily.

Oh ok so your just basically sticking up for Eddie's hypothetical bs which he has no reason to be saying anyways got it. If a perineum was a person it would be you.

Eddie Hearn's opinion on fighters is irrelevant. He's just some promoter who's never boxed

Very well said

[Oldskoolg]

By the way, what’s the status on this “American takeover”?????? When can we expect it to happen?

[BangEM]

At this, Hearn is a cancer to Josh’s career. And he’s ****** to resign with Matchroom once his contract is up.

Once you’ve a loudmouth that runs his mouth too much and pisses everyone as your promoter, it creates roadblocks and brings unnecessary hate. Matchroom is completely clueless when it comes to Matchmaking.

Take away the DAZN money and Edward is a shiiitty promoter. And he got that money bcos a cashcow dropped on his lap. Bazza’s better than his son.

For me, the most interesting part of this interview is Eddie revealing that fighting Fury is AJ's No1 priority, and he is ready to ditch belts if mandatory challengers won't play ball.

The big alabama fraud is in a no win situation. He can't beat Fury and he can't beat AJ and he can't make money vs anyone else. The big alabama fraud and his corrupt protectors are scheming some way out of their mess to make the best cash grab and run. They have no escape hatch now. Just a matter of time before that big no class jackass is out of the picture. Hearn is right, wilder's fake career is as good as finished.
