Showtime wasnt going to settle for unranked irrelevant fight to broadcast a HW champion , he could have fought Whyte when Stiverne was a mandatory last year but dragged that out for 7 months , Wilder didnt fight anyone he wasted over a half year on twitter prior to accepting an Ortiz fight turned Stiverne rematch .
Whyte is the number ONE ranked guy in Wilders OWN sanctioning body ,its irrelevant fight though ? Hearn doesn't think Whyte can defeat Wilder ,he wouldn't risk a fight of that magnitude of Wilder vs Joshua he wont see again .
Only an idiot thinks Hearn is trying to offset that fight . After the Ortiz scare hes going to push that fight which is why hes INVITING Wilder to be a commentator at the Joshua fight. The fight happening next all depends on Wilder NOT Hearn who doesn't make the calls ,its Joshua !
"The only reason Hearn wants to make Wilder-Whyte is to earn money for himself before risking his cash cow. "
Yea thats what promoters do right ? It could also be the Wilder fight is going to be a TWO fight deal and Wilder and Joshua fighting in each others backyard helps that cause, mainly bc Wilder is a fraction world wide to Joshua status .
