I don’t think you can call it a duck in a negative sense. After all of this public baiting from both sides, Only somebody who lacks any self respect, would accept Hearns ridiculous offer to fcuk off showtime and Haymon etc (which is Wilders bread and butter) to fight on Eddie’s DAZN platform which so far has zero subscribers, zero fighters announced and zero interest from the US audience. As for singing a contract for a fight in April next year committing to a flat fee and the terms from now, I don’t think I’ve heard of anything more ridiculous in boxing. Having said all that, I think both camps are happy to allow the fight to happen next year.
If anybody believes that either fighter is ducking the other then you're idiots. Clear as day the suits are happy to string the fans along with this nonsense. Look how it has all these fanboys on here ffs! Never seen anything like it where promoters word is taken as gospel! They all lie so they can extract more money from you.
all this nonsense is actually putting me off the fight, they need to either seal the deal or shut the **** up
Wilder is looking for his next school teacher, pastry chef, cripple, or carnival fat man. Joshua has beaten Klitschko, Martin, Parker, and Whyte in a career half has long as Wilder's, who has yet to sack it up and climb in even with a live dog.
So you expect a man to sign a contract with no date and no venue in it. If you do then I have a bridge for sale. And despite Finkel requesting for both to be included, Hearn refused and instead sent him an abusive text message referring to it being in April. So Hearn never presented Finkel with a final and complete contract to sign. Hearn doesnt want his cash cow to get chinned, so he doesnt want the fight. Thats why he has been abusive and rude throughout to Finkel- you dont dont get fights signed by acting like a stupid school boy. Also turning down the 50 million offer for the fight stateside was a duck by Ed-E.
Tbf to hearn he said in a ifl intv yesterday. "If i was you (public) i wouldnt believe anything i said or finkel" Ive heard him saying this before about himself and promoters. Many a times hes said hes a glorified used car salesman. So he is been upfront about him been a BSer.
The whole carry-on is annoying. If they said at the start of the year "OK, you do your mandatory and I'll do a voluntary then we can fight", that would have been fine. Really annoying and a little pointless in the eyes of us but at least we know. I honestly think this has turned people off the fight a bit
Spot on - the ticket prices will be double and the PPV mugs should brace themselves for a record £29.99 PPV rogering from Sky and Eh Day
I think Americans are used to being the big boys who call all the shots and the brits going cap in hand taking what they can get. Times have changed, Finkel and Dibella havent done **** in years. Aj is the A+++ side in this fight, its his terms or **** off. Its the same as always just the yanks can't handle it. Wilder is talking absoloute nonsense now trying to act like he can get big paydays elsewhere. Cool go do it then. Joshua v povetkin is a 20 mil plus fight If Whyte beats Parker thats a 25m plus fight Fury will be ready within 12 months Now that for once we have a british champ who is top 2 name in the sport i say **** giving in to any of the yanks demands. 15 mil, fight in the uk, our ref, our judges, your walking out first, deal with it. Your supposed to be this fearless warrior who would easily ktfo joshua so whats the issue? If wilder doesnt like it he can **** off. Its EXACTLY what british fighters have had to put up with over the years.
Wilder's biggest purse was $ 2.5M for Ortiz so why doesn't he take the gauranteed $15M offer? There is only one conclusion a reasonable person can arrive at!
