    What on earth is this? Another unreasonable obstacle.

    Can someone explain to me why the fight has to be agreed before Dec 1? Whyte is scheduled to box Chisora on Dec 22. So is Hearn going to rule out Whyte too or he is going to allow Whyte to agree the fight for April in the new year.

    Clearly it’s going to be Joshua v Whyte in April.

    Putting the pressure on Finkel to take him off email and phone block. It doesnt matter though Finkel does want the smoke, the smoke that comes with mirrors. No way that fights happening. It cant be any more clear that Finkel has never wanted it.

    As @DoubleJab666 said in another thread, it's to try to get Wilder's team to lock him into a discounted rate, that way if he beats Fury he can't ask for more. Or something along those lines.

    I'll leave you with this.

    Joshua want none of that, his body language speaks volumes when it comes to Wilder, he is mentally not prepared to get in the ring with him and the Povetkin fight showed that even more.

    I know mate, nothing screams AJ is a ducker more than sending Deontay Wilder a signed contract to face him for nearly as much money as hes earnt in entire career to date.

    Why does Hearn need a deal before December? Give me one logical answer.

    I know you are more of a Wilder than Joshua fan but you also seem to be more fair to the other side than most from what I've noticed. I say that because I don't see what you seen at all from AJ after the fight, he looked like he couldn't be more confident to me.

    How on earth could Wilder sign to fight someone before the Fury fight? There will be rematch clauses ffs

    That's more money than he ever earned but it's not enough for a unification bout, that's what some people still don't grasp.

    Yup. Because he knows when Wilder flattens Fury that his worth increases exponentially. He's possibly worried about those American PPV numbers as well. Both of these combined should mean Wilder should get 50%, and as we speak I'd say 40%, not the roughly 10% that Hearn was offering him with that measly 12-15 million offer. Bazza says the fight is worth 70mil (it's more than that but let's play along) so that means they were offering Wilder just over 20% while Parker got 32.5%. It's the worst ducking of the century minus Amir Khan.

    Great point about Whyte. I just like watching the non objective Matchroom fans squirm. In fact, as English Eubank would say, I don't like it, I LOVE IT.

    I will give you 2.

    1. Because Hearn is worried that negotiations are going to be a long and drawn out affair judging by how unavailable Finkel was making himself last time and the wierd things he was doing. So Hearn doesnt want them over running into January or Febuary.

    2. Because there is a good chance the Fury fight does well and Wilders stock increases and Hearn doesnt want to pay him as little as possible. Also with Wilder already demanding 50-50 when his numbers are average whats he going to be demanding if the Fury fight goes well. Hearn doesnt want to wait to find out.

    He said he thinks it would be a 50/50 fight against Wilder because of his lack of experience in a recent interview and he didn't seem confident to me, he also didn't look confident in the fight against Povetkin.
