Somebody who set up a twitter account to regurgitate news from actual reporters without giving any credit until he was pestered to do so.
Couple of things... 1. It’s only the initial stages of negotiations. There hardly going to go in with the best purse are they. Look at the Parker negotiations. 2. No one actually knows what the fight is worth really will the get US PPV if the fight in the Uk? 3. Why does every act like it’s eddie Hearns job to make Wilder rich. He is a promoter for AJ his sole aim and purpose is to promote AJ... his fights and make AJ as much money as possible. Don’t remember people blaming Rocnation for giving kovalev 700k and Andre Ward 7million
The point the OP is making is that Hearn has already contradicted himself on the fight in terms of what it will generate, as he often does when it's of benefit to him.
THIS Some of the Hearn fans here are ridiculous. Point I was making is that you can't trust a word he says, he will promote an agenda when it suits him. I don't know if any of you guys are actually employed but if you are working in an environment where you have to make revenue and budgetary estimates, making a £60m miscalculation is pretty damn incompetent. The margin of error in an estimation for a PPV like AJ-Wilder is never going to be that wide.
He’s an annoying business/sales man.. says what he needs to to keep the majority happy A lot of people see straight through it. It’s clear Hearn doesn’t want the fight yet
The caveat being that Hearn's optimism was based on the fight being built by Joshua fighting in the US to build his profile over there and Wilder fighting Whyte to build his profile over here only Wilder didn't fancy the type of treatment his compatriot Jennings got when he mouthed off online only to find out that Whyte will not tollerate Americans gobbing off. The cold hard truth is that by Eddie Hearn's and British Boxing's standards, in terms of Widler's career to date, Al Haymon is a failure and Lou DiBella is a failure. The truth is like poetry - and most people hate poetry...
Get off your high horse, he's a god damn promoter. You shouldnt need to make a thread about this CLEAR evidence if you had half a brain.
100mill fight woukd be right if the following things happen. Joshua fights Pov In UK then Miller in US Wilder fights Whyte in the UK then goes back home to the US and fights parker And then may Bank Holiday wilder v Joshua push the card for a 00.00 start to the fight in the UK or have an early card start in America so fight is on at 03.00
Hearn pays fighters well....very well infact. GGG's second highest purse came from Hearn's back pocket.
A boxing promoter contradicting himself. Well i never. Hold the front page folks we got breaking news here.
