What’s next for Eddie Hearn if Fury schools or stops Wilder?

Obviously he needs the Joshua-Wilder mega fight for the DAZN for the American market, but if Fury defeats Wilder it doesn’t make a lot of sense.

Will be fun to watch his reaction, because he is 100% sure that Wilder is going to win.

 

One thing is for sure, he won't want Joshua anywhere near fury, his gravy train will be off the rails, he can blame it on the leaves!!!

 

Well Wilder will rematch Fury and if Wilder wins then Joshua/Wilder is still a viable fight but obviously the fight loses some of it's attraction with Wilder having being beaten by a less than 100% Fury.

I doubt it would draw as much interest in the US as Wilder will be seen as a very big underdog to Joshua.

Hearn's next move will be to move Miller into a title shot and use the undefeated Miller as his way to introduce Joshua to the US market.

 

Hearn silver-spoon is using Miller as a testing bay... Just like ODH did when they threw lemmy in wit GGG...

 

Would Joshua still want Wilder if he lost the belt to Fury? He claims he would but im not so sure about that. Hed become very high risk for no extra reward. The numbers from this Saturdays fight will show Wilder without the belt doesnt do AJ numbers any boost at all. Not to mention American Boxing fans seem to drop a fighter by the hundred when they lose a belt or a zero.

Fury has already demanded 60-40 but also said he wouldnt fight Joshua. He claims this WBC belt is the one he wants as he has already owned all the others. Im 100% sure Fury is not worried about fighting Joshua but knowing him he would find it quite funny to refuse to fight him and keep that belt out of Joshuas reach.

But then if Fury beats Wilder the rematch will be the next fight unless Fury immediately retires after Saturdays win, thats something that shouldnt be ruled out. Hes such a strange one its near impossible to even attempt to 2nd guess him.

Who knows. Whyte is still looking a good shot for April though. Hearn is talking other names also but Whyte is in position as long as he beats Chisora which he should. Cant see it being Miller, thats going to be Joshuas American debut if he doesnt face Wilder 1st.

 

You don't even know what the numbers are yet you clown, unless you have a time machine. Loads are buying this on PPV. Are you actually going to answer the question or just throw out Matchroom word salad?

Hearn will make the weaseling and obfuscation he performed in the Wilder "negotiations" seem like absolute child's play compared to how he'll act if Fury puts on a masterclass Saturday. You'd be looking at a fight at the very least 18 months away, more like 2 years if at all, and only after Joshua has feasted on the latest procession of dwarves and former contenders.

 

If Fury wins I think the people of England will put an overwhelming amount of pressure on Hearn and Joshua to make an all british unification fight. It would undoubtedly big the biggest fight in British heavyweight and possibly British boxing history.

 

Course they are.

 

From what fury’s been saying it sounds like he doesn’t want it. He’s said he’ll never fight in the UK again if he wins. That to me sounds like the equivalent of ‘I’m not fighting Joshua’. Then again he has flip flopped and lied on numerous occasions so this might well be another case of that.

Fury is a bizarre guy, he’s obviously got a deep rooted jealousy of AJ. To be honest it wouldn’t surprise me if he does everything he can to stop the fight happening while blaming it all on Hearn/AJ in the hope the public turn against them.

 

lol at the notion someone who patently has no fear about fighting a dangerous and unpredictable Wilder would be scared of the notion of facing The Tin Man Joshua.

 

At that point he would have finally hit public humiliation rock bottom, so there'd be nothing left but to follow the precedent of his erstwhile colleague and rival Kellie Maloney and spend a few months of low-laying and postoperative convalescence before the big unveiling (live on Sky!) of the UK's newest glamour model: Fast Car Edele.

 

Well why has he said he won’t fight in the UK again when everybody knows that’s the only logical location for the fight. He either doesn’t want it or he’s lying again, which do you think it is? Lying I guess.

 

With a nickname like Fast Car I think competing in drag races is surely the obvious move.

 

Fury demands may scupper a deal.

 

People can say what they want, the REAL money is with Joshua vs Fury, not Joshua vs Wilder. Joshua vs Fury isn't just 'big' in the UK, it's absolutely massive. And even in the US, it's not a dead sell (Of course it probably won't do AJ vs Wilder numbers in the US, but it'll more than make up for it in the UK). Honestly, it could even do 2 million buys in the UK, I'm not joking. That's how big this is seen in the UK. Because both names are known. Wilder is a nobody in the UK (Outside of boxing fans).

Eddie knows the numbers. It's not the most appealing fight to Joshua or even to boxing fans, but you'd be wrong to think Eddie doesn't want a piece of it.
