    Seems to have gone under the radar this.

    Finkel said the other day that’s he willing to reopen talks with matchroom for the Joshua Wilder fight and that he’s meeting Barry Hearn on October 6th or 7th I think it is to discuss it.

    Adds credence to the line of thought that Barry still makes the big decisions.

    Not really, they've known each other for decades and get on a lot better than he and Eddie. It's good business sense.

    tbf, i think the amount he has contradicted the rest of the Matchroom team recently, lends credence to the argument that he doesn't have THAT much to do with things these days

    There is no point in Barry Hearn meeting Finkel...HE has already said he dont want AJ fighting Wilder till 2020 if at all...
    AJ has the next 18 months mapped out already as well you know

    Tell that to Shelly Finkel. He’s the one who said that they’re meeting and HE is open to opening Joshua v Wilder talks.

    Are you slow?...i said Barry Hearn dont want the fight ,its on video when he is sat there like a gnome fishing!...as you well know...

    Hearn will go and offer a similar flat fee that he knows they wont accept then the Matchroom/Your spin will start again and announce the Whyte fight

    I'm so disappointed, I saw the thread title "Finkel and Barry Hearn" and for a second or two I thought they might be fighting.

    £19.95 on Sky Box Office with a stacked undercard..

    Lawrence Okolie Vs Squiddly Diddly
    David Price Vs An Asthmatic Pensioner (A Real 50/50)

    Please feel free to add to the undercard, it could have been one of the greatest cards Matchroom have ever given us.

    Are you slow you ****ing gimp? Where did I was say there was a point in them meeting. I’ve stated what Shelly Finkel said. Nothing Barry said or ive said. So tell Shelly there’s no point.
