Eddie Hearn confirms Wilder did ask for "50/50" split.

And that's perfectly fine with you , because as a loyal Eddie Hearn and Joshua bumboy , you will go against your natural instincts as a boxing fan and spend hours writing essays justifying why one of the biggest fights in boxing should be made at a later date. This is why you type out hypothetical dialogue to give his reluctance to make the fight a pass.
I already asked you last week when a marination process was ever justified and you couldn't answer. .. If Bob Arum was saying the same for his fighter he'd be torn a new one.

 

Hearn is delighted he can refuse Wilder's offer and save face for himself, AJ and their terrified fans. The world hasn't seen the Brits run like this since Dunkirk.

 

You're wrong.
Deontay Wilder isn't signed with Eddie Hearn.
Hearn isn't handling Wilder's career in any way.
Eddie Hearn isn't a charity set up to help Deontay Wilder, and he isn't Wilder's fairly godmother.

Hearn offered Wilder money (a lot) to face Whyte because Whyte is Hearn's fighter and that would be GREAT for Whyte.
What don't you understand about that ?

As for Deontay Wilder as an opponent for Hearn's main heavyweight Anthony Joshua, Hearn has stated openly that Deontay Wilder has the potential to be an EVEN BIGGER MEGA FIGHT a couple of fights down the line. Wilder does have box office potential but for some reason he hasn't converted that potential into a fan-base in his own country, America. So Hearn seems to be correct.

In the meantime, Hearn can match Joshua with guys who have no potential box office increase , and STILL make massive money off Joshua's name alone. Hearn loses NOTHING by getting Joshua in with those guys, getting them eliminated while they are still viable. The benefits of getting Wilder next are minimal for Joshua's career, getting Wilder eliminated at this stage could be losing millions in the long run due to Wilder's box office potential. That's Hearn's reasoning.

I think Hearn has a point but it makes no difference whether Hearn is right or wrong, or whether he's making excuses. Because that's his stated position.
Wilder says he wants the fight now. Hearn says: OK, that's not impossible.

So the onus now is on Wilder's promoters to make an acceptable - an ATTRACTIVE - offer. Not Hearn.
That's the situation.

 

I lost interest right there.

 

Doesn't matter. You've already shown yourself too stupid to understand the simplest matters.

 

70/30 is a great offer.

If Wilder wins then he can rightfully control the lions share thereafter.

 

Potential Anthony Joshua fights that aren’t Wilder or Parker.
As long as he keeps winning, he could fight 3 times a year for the next 5 years and earn an average of £12Million to £20 Million per fight. Meanwhile Parker and Wilder better hope they don’t lose their belts and with it any chance of a big payday.
Pulev
Povetkin
Whyte
Miller
T Fury
Dubois
Haye
Bellew
Chisora
Gorman
Ruiz
Ortiz
Joyce

Hell!
He could have an exhibition bout with 52 year old Lennox Lewis, donate the proceeds to charity and the charity would earn more than Wilder & Parker’s combined earnings for the next 10 years.

 

Wilder doesn't even deserve a percentage of the purse in the first place. He deserves a FLAT FEE.

 

Wilder says he'll happily go to England and fight Whyte as long as Hearn gives him a contractual agreement that it will lead to Joshua immediately after it.
As it stands right now Hearn isn't prepared to do that. Thats a fair and honest proposal from Wilder and Hearn went and balked.
Its not an issue of understanding anything. You've made it perfectly clear you have no interest in seeing Wilder earn a pay day and a shot at Joshua. You're posts are utter cringe worthy and your perspective is driven by pure emotion.
Im totally neutral in all this , I couldn't care less that Wilder beat only bums like you do , that doesn't make me want to see Joshua ignore Wilder like you do. The time for him to face the best is right now and to object that for any reason makes you nothing more than a sad excuse of a boxing fan.

 

wilder want to cash out he know he will get ko'd, so obv he will make ridiculous demands

 

You should change your name to "Tell Twice"!!

 

Marination process lol, I just ignored the question you posed because it was too stupid to dignify a response, but Ok here's your answer. Would Joshua/Parker be better now or when neither were champions and neither were as good as they are now? I'm pretty sure allowing them both the win belts and improve over time ensured the fight is more meaningful now than then. Oh no I gave an example as you asked for, what will you do now I wonder, admit that's a valid example or move the goal posts?

Answer me this then would Joshua/Wilder be a better fight if all the belts were on the line? I think so, Joshua/Wilder for the undisputed heavyweight championship of the world sounds a lot better than just Joshua/Wilder for unification. A fight for the undisputed title would be bigger for sure.

My natural instincts as a boxing fan is to have the fight be as big as it could be for the benefit of the sport as a whole. Joshua/Wilder could be huge, possibly the biggest fight since Lewis/Tyson. I would rather it be an event that transcends the hardcore and the UK casuals. I want a great fight that captures the world not just another unification fight.

Why have you gotten your knickers in such a twist just because the fight doesn't happen on your schedule? Will Joshua/Wilder happening a year from now really be any worse then it happening now? They are both prime or close to it, neither is in any danger of being over the hill any time soon. It's not like when Lewis/Holyfield was talked about with Evander being past his prime.

But whatever your point is, it's moot as while Wilder keeps pricing himself out of a fight there's no chance of the fight happening any time soon and that's as just as much as a delaying tactic as Hearn wanting to build the fight. But you'll probably happily ignore that.

Oh and lol at calling my a bumboy fan, when I have repeatedly said on this forum Fury beats Joshua and I hate Fury. I said Molina was garbage fight for Joshua too when it happened. I said Takam wouldn't be KO'ed early as my prediction for the Joshua/Takam fight too, though it would go at least middle rounds or longer. But to you anyone saying anything positive about Joshua must be a fanboy, lmao.

 

Lmao. Joshua's fans are getting near "Pac level" bad lmao. Lawyers and P.R reps are back at it again lol.

They absolutely in their minds think that Wilder doesn't want to fight Joshua lmao. What's he supposed to scream? "I want 80-20, 90-10 on Joshua's favor lmao"!!!??? Lol

 

Jeez, do you ever not make a despicably hateful and evil post? You've got to be the most relentlessly negative poster on here, and that's saying alot.

 

Agree with most of that, bit I don't see any likely way AJ Wilder will be remotely as big as AJ Wlad, or a number of other post Lewis Tyson fights. If Wilder beat Parker first, sure. But as it stands, it wouldn't be much bigger than AJ Parker. Wilders just not that proven right now.
