    I don't recall.iy ever being disputed that wilder was made an offer for Joshua which he turned down. But wasnt there an even more lucrative counter offer made to Joshua which he turned down?

      No

      What happened was Wilder sent Joshua an email from his personal Gmail account saying

      "50 Million dolla no meetings you agree or no"

      Hearn then requested a meeting to discuss terms, Finkle said no and they called AJ a "ducker"

      Then Finkle and Wilder met with DAZN, were presented with a 100 million dollar contract, said no and fought Brezeale instead

        Why are we talking about this nonsense? Hearn just make the fights people want to see.

        How is it none of the fights are being made on his end. None!!! No risks, no great matchups.

        PBC just gave us the Charlo double header (with Derevychenko and Rosario) and then Gervontae Davis Vs Leo Santa Cruz Card. Card of the year fight of the year.

        Top Tank just gave us the exciting Loma vs Teophemo. Is Matchroom really going to hang it’s hat on Usyk vs Chisora? GTFOH we are not going back down the rabbit hole to argue about the Wilder fight. What we see is the same recycled characters getting fights on Matchroom.

        Why are all these matchups so ****ing weak? And Why can’t these guys who are supposed to be so good get past contenders 7 thru 10 without gettin knocked out? These guys are some straight up clowns. Hearn Jr hand it back over to pops.

          The 50m crackhead offer? Is that how a deal is conducted in ******s? Emails, no meetings, accept verbally first and then we can talk?

              As much as I don't like Wilder, it's important to note that he's talking specifically about the $100m offer before the rematch. A lot of people seem to think he's talking about an offer before Wilder vs. Fury 1. However, he's still admitting he turned it down in order to face Fury, which is contrary to what they said at the time..."we turned it down because they wouldn't tell us what AJ was earning, among other things (of which none were ever revealed, and now we know why, because the only reason was a straight duck lol)". Just saying.

                We’re talking about this nonsense because countless of people, maybe yourself included, were accusing AJ of ducking Wilder and it is a topic that has raged on this forum for a very long time. However, Wilder has now confirmed that this isn’t true, which puts this to bed. Wilder admitted only a few days ago so of course people will be talking about it.

                The argument hasn’t been about whether PBC or Top Rank put on good fights, so your points on this matter are just noise and irrelevant to this conversation. Classic deflection tactic if ever I saw one.

                    It's worse than that, Hearn already had a meeting with Finkel booked in NY that week, Wilder & Co cancelled it after they made the offer.
