    Totally agree! When Wilder knows AJ and his team are ready to sign for Povetkin he comes away with this bogus nonsense. Wilder reminds me of how Riddick Bowe wanted no part of Lennox Lewis.

    That is kinda odd. His been sitting on it for 4 weeks and now responds when AJ v Povetkin is close.

    Maybe an element of brinksmanship underway over one or more of the deal points. Each side waiting for the other to blink first.

    Wilder's blinked, but has he left it so late that the fight is delayed?

    Still don't think this fight will get made next. The timing of the acceptance of terms aligning with how close Matchroom are to signing with Povetkin makes me suspicious that it's just some more smoke and mirrors. There's a very small window in which to get this across the line before Hearn has to commit AJ to the Povetkin fight.

    Of course the fight was going to be made, there was too much
    money and legacy for it not to be. I think this shows Wilder's team
    was right to nix the $12 million and $15 million (despite the whines
    and protestations of certain people on here). Hearn's offer must
    be lovely for Wilder's team to accept a flat fee and to forget
    about a percentage.

    Of course it was going to be made. Too much money.

    So Wilder accepted a flat fee to go to the UK. I want to know what it is! Im thinking close to $100 mill right??

    I gotta see the weigh in to believe it. I'm still have sour grapes from DW vs AP in Russia getting cancelled on fight week.
