Eddie Hearns: Only AJ is allowed to duck mandatories to have a rematch, if Wilder does it I'll sue!

Hearn is just fighting for the interest in his client. Trilogies are great but they have not even had the 2nd fight yet, he hes not even had the Ortiz fight yet and thats 1st. Hearn wants his client given his mandatory fight somewhere soon. The question is where is the WBC? Are they planning to wait a number of years again before they call the next one? Surely they need to be reminding Wilder to not clog up his calendar too much cuz he has responsibilities to the belt.

Im not sure how anybody can have a problem with Hearn and Whyte trying to get that Wilder fight. Im beginning to wonder about Wilder fans. They seen to celebrate fights not happening and want to complain and criticize fighters who try to get a title shot.

 

Can’t stand Hearn these days, the best thing about AJ losing to me has been hearns response, playing the humble game but seething underneath, assuming he has full control.

 

The Ruiz situation is slightly complicated and there is a real possibility one of those belts gets stripped, but Let's not forget, Hearn has Usyk and Whyte very high in those rankings, so there is a very strong possibility one of those or maybe BOTH could end up fighting for a vacant belt anyway, then there are still very big fights to be made.

Anyway as for the mentioned legal action.

What is Hearn suppose to say? Hearn promotes Whyte, he has Whytes interests to protect and promote.

Whyte has been NUMBER ONE with the WBC for nearly 600 days, let that sink in, 600 days, they made Breazeale ranked NUMBER 3 or 4 mandatory.

Even though Whyte has held the WBC Silver title since October 2017.

The WBC have made Whyte promise after promise and guarantee after guarantee and by there own rules Whyte has to get his shot, that simple.

Should Whyte wait until.. late 2020 or 2021? For a shot? That is wrong, unreasonable and bang out of order.

Can you imagine having a NUMBER ONE contender waiting over 2 and half or 3 years for a title shot?

Hearn would not talk legal action if he didn't have a bullet proof case, so he is just forcing the WBC to do the right and correct thing.

 

Not just Wilder fans, American boxing fans and boxing media in general deflect from and defend the flagrant corruption, ducking and diva antics because they have no honour and they're scared of the competition

 

Wilder has had a lot of opportunities to fight Whyte but for some reason he refuses.

 

I dont understand why people react the way they are to Eddie's statement, of course he is going to push
his agenda, he is of course going to look after his fighter.

Credit to Eddie, he fights for his fighters, win or lose he tries and gets them the best deals possible.
Whyte doesnt even have a belt and earns more per fight than Wilder, amazing really.

 

Selling Kell Brook off to be slaughtered by GGG was great for his career right?

Crolla almost dying against Lomachenko was a great deal!

 

Hearn knows perfectly well that Wilder isn't going to fight any Matchroom fighter except Joshua.

Also, Fury is better than White and Ortiz arguably is as well. There's no public demand for Wilder/Whyte, relative to bouts against Fury, Joshua or potentially Ruiz.

 

Getting B grade fighters opportunities to have career high pay day's, and a potential legacy fight
is a bad deal now is it?

Brook asked for the fight when he heard that Khan was fighting Canelo, so Eddie delivered.
He works for the fighters, they dont work for him.

Crolla didnt belong in there, but what an amazing coop it was to swerve lil ol' anthony crolla fin to a position of fighting Lomachenko,
yes it was a beating, but do you think before or after that fight Crolla regretted it?

His job is to get his fighters what they want. Money, Title shots, Big fights.

 

Of course not, when has there ever been any pressure on Wilder to face top guys? We're talking about the same ppl who crown Spence p4p #1

 

Ortiz x2, Fury x2 & Brazeale is not a bad two year slate, if that's how it goes. Would be four top 5 opponents in his most recent five fights.

 

I like Hearn's plan to use Butterbean for Femi's rematch sparring. Excellent idea Ed.

 

AJ has been a UK super star for 4 years now and even he could barely do 5000 DAZN Subscriptions for his fight with Ruiz. These UK boxers are just lucky to be operating in the UK where boxing is still big unlike America.

 

Whyte, the true bogeyman of the division.

 

5000? your a funny guy. I'm guessing if I asked for a source you would come up empty. I'm right aren't I?
