    I'm sick and tired in reading nearly every thread, that Wilder has to build up his name in the uk, that he has to fight more opponents before he is worth of getting a shot at Joshua.

    Hearn has said in the past that Wilde needs to build his name up more to justify the fight being ppv. This is the same snake that justified ppv fights with Breazelle and that substitute teacher Molina.

    Yet here he is saying Big Baby Miller has done enough to justify a world title shot if he can beat Duhaupas, along with having Wach and Washington on his record (Two of those fighters Wilder has already wrecked) and will charge the brooklyn boys full whack in the Barclays arenas.

    So do any of you numbskulls peddling this narrrative that the fight needs to be built up by Wilder fighting more of Joshua's security guards, want to tell me what Wilder hasn't done that Baby Miller has done? If by Hearn's logic, the intention is to build Joshua's stock up in America, then is the out of shape, slow plodding Miller - who hardly anyone in America has ever heard of - the best fighter to do that against?

    its the demands of 50/50 that have stalled the fight, we all know AJ vs Wilder is the biggest fight out there bar AJ vs Fury.

    Hearn knows the fight has to be made at the end of 2018 to avoid mandatorys potentially ruining the chance to become undisputed champion, I believe he does wnat to make the fight at the end of the year but in the mean time he wants to milk everything he can by making whyte wilder first and then AJ vs miller.

    I don't think they are ducking but i do think they are stalling to milk more money, I would like to see the fight next but i am not fussed if he fights big baby next providing wilder is after that, If he fights big baby miller or similar and the next fight isn't wilder that its 100% a duck.

    This. Whyte and Miller are not demanding 50%.

    If Joshua wanted the fight, it would happen.

    Hearn is a lying douche. He's trying get every fight to be in the UK so he personally gets more money as the event organiser. We all know it.

    This means nothing. You could easily just as say 'If Wilder wanted the fight, it would happen.'

    And yet Hearn has already said during a 5live interview that a fight in Vegas would make him more money.

    If Wilder agreed to be paid what Miller would likely take which would be a few mill if that then I'm sure the fight would get made quickly and of course you don't have to build up a fight to generate what it would take to cover that purse. They could pay Wilder $3-5 mill and Joshua could still make a record payday and unify.

    Wilder on the other hand wanted $7-10 mill for Whyte, you know he wants well over $10 mill for Joshua which is roughly about what Parker is likely getting paid and if that's the case then the fight will need to sell better than Joshua/Parker will, which means the fight needed building.

    I bet Jarrell Miller isn't asking for a ridiculous 50/50 split

    Why isn't he trying to make it then? Don't believe his lies.

    Because Hearn/AJ want a large piece of the pie and believe they can get it. They don't want 50% they want a lot more.

    So what? Who said recently Wilder wanted 50-50 in the states?

    You asked me why Hearn isn't trying to make the fight? If Wilder wants too much of the pie Hearn won't have it. Simple as that. It's a money game.

    Oh how I will laugh when Joshua/Wilder gets made. Then all this pissing and moaning, crying and stamping of feet will be for nothing. Not that it will achieve anything anyway.
