This content is protected So they want either Wilder or Fury next for April 13th at Wembley, thoughts?
Hearn will claim to make a good faith attempt to make the fight knowing full well that Fury/Wilder II is next. But he has to justify whatever disappointing opponent Joshua fights next. A draw was nearly the worst possible outcome for Hearn.
Well Hearn is the most full of **** promoter possibly ever and that's saying a whole lot. I doubt he makes serious effort for either and we see Joshua-Whyte like he really wants.
Wilder needs AJ more than AJ needs Wilder. AJ can fill Wembley with carpenter. Lets them come for AJ and beg him.
Seems a smart move. I can't see Ah v Fury being made just due to being on rival promotions but Wilder might want to cash in on Joshua now that he hasn't been able to get himself out of jail again. Fury could beat him in a **** out a second time and then he'd have no negotiating power. If they do then Indunnonwhat Fury does but plenty other fights I wouldn't mind seeing, most of who are with Hearn mind.
After Furys event win if not fight win, though he did win, It seems to make alot more sense to take the Fury fight, they wanted him to get fit and prove it and draw some real attention to himself before that fight to happen. Well he has ticked all those boxes big time. As for Wilder, i dont Finkel wants to go anywhere near this one, i feel the only thing that may tempt him out of his shell will be a 50-50 split and the 1st fight to be held in America, and even then they may find an excuse. Just a feeling im getting after the slapping he has just had.
Either he really wants to make the fight, or he has no intension of doing so but doesn't wish to give that away. Whichever it is, he has to get the message out to the public that he wants talks with Wilder's team. This tells us nothing, it's just Hearn being Hearn....
You think Wilder wants to risk fighting Fury again? A Fury that's had longer to prepare and knows if he keeps his mind on the job and cuts out the nonsense he can 12-0 him at a canter? I think he wants that Joshua money fairly desperately now and Fury beating him takes a lot of cash out of his pocket.
lol - He got peanuts figthing Fury and still lost . Povetkin got 3 x more money figthing AJ. Wilders stock is finished. If he fights Fury again for far less money than he will get for AJ and gets beaten (he will) then its curtains. He might as well lose to AJ and get 5 x the money. Wilder and Fury need AJ 100% and should be on their knees begging him
This is what I think. Wilder will be much more keen to fight AJ now, he knows it’s gonna be a harder fight the 2nd time round and surely Fury wouldn’t go to the US again. He still has a good chance of beating AJ as well, get a load of money the first time and then get even more for the rematch - makes sense to me.
AJ Vs Wilder (AJ wins) Fury Vs Charr (just go get the strap and a nice little tune up before....) AJ vs Fury late next year for all the belts and the lineal undisputed status Job done
That'd be a dumb move (especially for Wilder as he has a much better chance of beating AJ than Fury) because there'll make much more money fighting AJ than each other again
