    He didnt say Deontay turned down 50-50. He said he would if he offered it cuz he clearly doesnt want the fight because they have made zero attempts to make the fight and zero attempts to even reply to Hearn or Joshua.

    This is as bad as the Wilder girls trying to tell us Barry Hearn admitted their 7 year plan or what ever it was because of that interview he did when he was fishing. We all heard what was said but then we come on here and get to read the Wilder girls trying to twist and chance what Barry said. This is the Joshua girls equivalent. Hearn has not offered Wilder 50-50.

    60/40 is a more than fair offer to wilder... do people really believe it should be any higher?

    Breazeale, Parker, Whyte and Takam LOL. Murderer's row there. When did the Chisora fight happen btw?

    As for old man Ortiz, we doing this again? As opposed to young prospects Wlad and Povetkin right?

    This was established a while ago and came from wilder’s mouth, he said he wasn’t interested in the fight and didn’t deny they haven’t been getting back to Hearn. It’s AJ ducking though lol.

    Not if they are being honest. So far the only defense for giving Wilder 50-50 is the fight isnt going to get made if they dont so if they want the belt give 50-50. I think they feel that because Joshua has built up some wealth it shouldnt be a problem giving some of it out to those with their hands out asking for more. They need to be pressing on Wilder to realise that 60-40 is more than a good enough offer and that if we put Joshua's and Wilder's belts side to side Joshua is the A side. And then if they put Joshua's income and Wilder's income side by side Joshua is the A side.

    Wilder is pricing himself out. They never wanted this fight they have run and hidden and refused to deal with Eddie Hearn or Joshua for a full year now. But the expectation is that Joshua folds and massively overpays Wilder to try tempt Wilder into taking the fight. Which should really label Wilder a ducker for being so unrealistic but the hate is coming back on Hearn and Joshua.

    No one is ducking atm, Wilder/Fury are fighting each other, and Hearn is making offers knowing this.

    How can you say Wilder is ducking when he's fighting someone he knows can beat him for a lot less money, than against someone he doesn't know could beat him, for more money and for the undipsuted title. It makes no sense.

    By the same token, you can't say AJ is ducking them two at this point, because Fury and Wilder are already fighting each other in a rematch.

    I couldn't agree more... to me the whole thing is common sense. However, you cant state it without being labelled a fan boy.

    Why does wilder not get the same pressure to fight Joshua... Wilder has a perfect opportunity to do exactly what he has been screaming about for the last year and a half (mostly after he has a fight signed and to promote his own fight). He gets a draw with Fury and since has dismissed any idea of even negotiating with Joshua's team both publicly and privately. I could understand if the hate on AJ if Wilder was telling the media he wanted the fight and hearn was saying there not talking... then its a question of who you believe BUT Wilder him self is saying hes only interested in the Fury rematch.

    As for DW i do think he should be offered more than 5 million fee... i think they should give him 70/30 personally. Or closer to 10 million but the fight will be a main UK fight so the money is likely less much less than fury or wilder which would have interest globally you would think.

    Its very easy to say AJ is ducking and lowballing but with everything that we know that has been shared rightly or wrongly anyone with an ounce of objectivness could see Joshua and his team are at least trying more than fairly to make the wilder or fury fights.

    It's easy to say that AJ is lowballing because it's true. Wilder and Fury are treating each other fairly, which is why they will have stepped in the ring and fought two times before Joshua even comes back from his last fight.

    Anyone with an ounce of objectiveness can see when you treat Wilder and Fury fairly, they're more than happy to lay it on the line and fight.
