You keep accusing me of having a biased view yet this is one of your other posts on this topic, calling Wilder and his team liars and making out that Eddie Hearn (lmfao) is an honest promoter: Here you talk about how Wilder doesn’t want the fight when Joshua was previously on film stating clearly that he sees the Wilder fight taking place in 2020. The fact that you stated that Hearn is “being honest” demonstrates that you are the one with bias here. Hearn has contradicted himself so many times in the Wilder-Joshua saga, most notably boasting that he sees the fight grossing £100m and then less than a month later stating that it makes £40m. He’s the most dishonest out of the lot.
No when the fight happens I will be excited and happy. I said that IF Joshua turns down the $50m offer it will be duck of the century because he said on camera that he would accept that. His bluff has been called. Wilder just beat the **** out of Ortiz who Eddie Hearn signed in order to keep away from Joshua. Wilder signed to fight Povetkin and Ortiz, you are talking pure **** there and clearly have an agenda against my G Deontay.
Joshua aint going to the US-He made that clear in his post fight Parker Interview- He would look like a idiot if he reversed what he publicly stated. I think he is just too comfortable in the UK and with those fans worshipping him-it wont be like that when he steps foot on US Soil
And if he gets knocked out by Wilder in the UK- His Brand will be severely damaged.If he gets knocked out in Vegas however, their is a reward attached to the Risk-He gets that 50M which wouldnt be possible in the UK and has a chance to avenge that defeat in a UK Rematch.Joshua needs to milk that UK Fanbase just as Canelo does with his...That is the whole point of getting a fanbase so you make money off them...Tons of Brits will fly out to Vegas-Even though they are denying they will-then whatever the result have the rematch in the UK in April/May 2019 where it would be summer over their
He only sold weed-that's like getting a detention at school-it's Standard for a Council Kid.Have you seen his Social Media Accounts ? His son is like the beating heart of it, i dont see where he abadoned him-I am sure after the Dillian whyte fight-when his son was just a couple of weeks old he put up a picture to announce he had a son...You're letting your hate get too strong.
"Ruthless Buisnessmen"-He is a peanut.Have you seen his negotiating skills ? He said he wanted 50M-It horribly backfired on him as he thought Wilder could not produce it and now he's in a situation where if he dosent take the fight in the U.S he looks like a fool.Then he said to 70K People after the Parker Fight-"We're staying right here" in regards to the Wilder Fight.This Man dosent know what he's doing.
Well the term "honest promoter" is like saying an honest lawyer or honest estate agent. Hearn tends to be pretty upfront and open but you can't simply believe everything he says, he's very slippery with his words. The 100 mill quote is an example of that, he said he "hoped" it would make 100 mill not that it would. So technically he didn't lie, but he also technically misinformed with the original statement. So I'd say Hearn is dishonestly honest lol. Everyone has a little bias, if you can say your 100% not biased to some fighter, then you're massively biased but don't realise it lol. I'll admit I am a Joshua fan and like any fan there is always the possibility of bias. Hence when I stated what Joshua said about wanting the fight in the UK for the fans in my very next paragraph I stated there was an element of wanting hometown advantage too and also pointed out Joshua's loyalty can be bought for a price.
Agreed as much as I like Joshua he clearly isn't the brains of the outfit, he's the muscle and the charisma. A ruthless business man he's not, or he wouldn't of bought his mum's council flat in Watford, hardly a great investment there, one done for sentiment rather than the fact Watford property prices are about to sky rocket lol.
Without proof, every offer is fantasy. Claiming the offer was genuine from day one, with no proof, was the stupidest position of them all. Let's hope that now we're no longer hearing Finkel/Dibella releasing everything to the media, we may get the fight we all want.
The simplest negotiation is when one party makes it clear what he wants and the other party then delivers that. That is exactly what has happened here with Joshua insisting he would sign for $50m and then Wilder offering him exactly that amount! But now that's not good enough! It's clear as day - Joshua was bluffing and he's been caught out and made to look a fool. Here it is, on camera for eternity. Where's your bottle gone fraud? This content is protected Timestamped. "I'd take 50 million ... I just agreed it". Duck of the century.
There were also a few of us that said this is a psy op to build the hype some more as both teams know this fight ain’t gonna happen this year. Seriously this fight will happen and the deal will be done behind closed doors just the same as Canelo v GGG. All this social media nonsense isn’t the new way to make deals it’s just a way of hyping it up is all.
I see no reason for Joshua to take 50mil to get robbed of his titles, which is exactly what'll happen if he lets Haymon pull all the strings.
