Just watching this latest video with Eddie on ifl. Matchroom never made Josh an offer. Eddie says he wanted him to fight Selby last summer but his people didnt want it. July 30th fight didn't sell well. Eddie wanted him to fight Selby in November but Warrington wanted too much money. He wanted Josh to fight Selby or quigg early 2017 but again his people didn't want it and would rather have a world title shot in summer 2017 so Eddie said he wouldn't make an offer.
That contradicts their statement from the other day. Offer was made and matchroom declined to make an improved offer after first offer to Warrington was turned down
No statement said “Following the expiry of our contract in November we were asked to make a new offer to Josh,” That suggests no offer was made at all. He mentions that in meetings his had with his management team his asked for Warrington to attend and his team have told Josh not to go.
So according to Hearn Warrington's team wanted a few more soft touches in Leeds and he wanted to stick him in with Selby and/or Quigg which they weren't willing to sign up for. Having lost money on his last show he then claims he declined to make an offer.
So far we have only heard from matchroom.. Nothing from Warrington he did post on faceboom he will make a statement shortly. He then commented on a friend who's in a bad way so guessing his mind is else at the moment
I wouldnt believe everything that came out of eddies mouth. Warrington has left matchroom and now its a matter of public relations..
What does he have to gain by lying on a youtube channel? They said they never made Warrington an offer, I see no reason to believe that isn't the truth.
Barring his wedding. Hearn always stated it wud b at Elland Road to maximise money for both lads. That cudnt happen in November and can't happen early 2017. . Is hearn telling the truth. Is Warrington gunna make a statement that contradicts hearn. . Did josh have a bigger offer on the table from fw. The truth probably won't come out.
Well Eddie seemed very very sold on Warrington and Leeds very sold so it's unlikely that no offer whatsoever was made.
But he did say the last Leeds show didn't sell well and Matchroom lost money which suggests the Leeds crowd want to see him in with better opponents rather than more tune ups before a world title shot.
