so the WBA "deadline" didn't mean hearn couldn't sign a wilder fight. it simply meant if the deadline passed, the WBA would start getting ready for a purse bid. hearn would still have plenty of time to sign povetkin or hearn before the purse bid actually takes place.
the WBA couldn't have stripped AJ for the deadline passing. the worsr thing they could have done was ordered a purse bid a couple weeks later. sorry hearn tricked you about why wilder couldn't sign friday.
