TBH, you brought personal feelings regarding a man neither of us actually know into this discussion, not me. I've made it clear on many occasions I rate him as a promoter, I'm just not invested in him as a person and try to pick out aspects where maybe he's taken a wrong turn when a relevant subject matter arises - and in this respect his approach to raiding the US market is something I question. I don't need to see him as perfect or flawed. But it's fine, you like him. Nothing wrong with that but that probably explains why none of my points stack up for you, when you're digesting an opinion counter to yours, based on conjecture which it can only be in the end. For or against....
So my point was simply that your dislike of him as a person is distorting your analysis. For example, in suggesting that a corporation has invested eighty million dollars in Tyson Fury because Eddie Hearn has upset the US boxing establishment and they therefore want to weaken his position. Business doesn't work like that?
I'm saying you are assuming I have a dislike for Hearn and I have told you quite clearly, I don't hold any strong like or dislike for him. Now you can continue to observe my opinions about Heam through the prism of your assumptions about me all night as far as I am concerned, because likewise I haven't formed an opinion about you either. This is the internet and not a place to invest anything of note. Hearn and you are strangers to me. I'm kinda relaxed about all three of these dimensions to this discussion...
He likes doing that. Pretending he's some sort of objective voice of reason on here, neutrally observing everything, when all the while he's a card-carrying MRFC season ticket holder. He then gets very arsey when you point it out. At least Tony and the gang are quite open about it.
I think Breazeale will fight Wilder if the Fury fight isn't made . Breazeale isn't going to agree to anything on the Whyte table now and can drag that out because he is the mandatory and the WBC have to sanction that . The WBC is afraid of Breazeale ,they don't want that fight either. but its the WBC and kownacki is the easiest top guy for wilder to look good as an excuse to fight . If they cancel the Fury fight they will look crooked as hell if they don't with the whyte one. Wilders mando is up and they don't want a puncher taller then he is in there with him ,im telling you guys, they would rather Wilders reach to still come into play,its what has saved him so far...lol
Fair enough. I've read lot of rather shrill stuff from some posters who hate Hearn with a passion, so I'm perhaps predisposed to seeing antipathy distorting posters views. In any case, me telling you what I think you think isn't going to advance a discussion!
I will laugh my arse off if wilder gets the brezeale fight instead of whyte now I think this year will turn out to be poor heavyweight wise, I’ll be surprised if we see AJ, Wilder, Fury in the ring together when really these are the fights that us paying public want and should happen in 2019
Probably best for Wilder to play it safe, waiting for when Fury and Joshua are ready. Maybe a few fights against the WBC ranked 15-12 HWs?
I probably shouldn't be asking this, knowing the WBC, but if Whyte vs Breazeale is for the mandatory then under what justification can Wilder fight Breazeale as a mandatory before Whyte? Wouldn't Whyte have grounds to sue and pull an Oquendo?
Breazeale is already mandatory for Wilder's belt. The WBC order Whyte and Breazeale to fight for an interim belt. Fighting for the real belt will take precedence over fighting for the interim belt.
He could try and sue but he'd lose. Breazeale already had a final eliminator, last year WBC made a statement that Wilder had to fight Breazeale by December, obviously that didn't happen when Fury/Wilder was made. If you read the WBC rules there's always a caveat in their rules which basically goes, this is how the rules are unless we say otherwise lol. Basically they can do what they like.
