    Your wrong. Eubanks did not sign on 4 occasions and kept putting silly demands which was never discussed and would never get. They was given a deadline and the their management just didn't answer the calls and neither did Eubanks etc after the deadline passed and never ever got back after the deadline passed either. They walked away from the fight.

    Ok ,if you know it all , answer me this - why didn't Hearn tell Eubanks that Kell Brook was ready and waiting to step in if they weren't going to fight?
    Why keep Brook a secret ?

    Aslo , those demands you speak of are part of the negotiation process. They could have came to agreement eventually , but Hearn was very quick to draw the line and walk away. Then only hours later there was posters for Brook vs GGG all over social media.

    Eubank easily.

    Wilder and Joshua are just doing the usual drag out the fight for business purposes and will fight eventually. Both can earn more and will negotiate to get a bigger slice of the pie.

    Eubank on the other hand was offered an undeserved shot at the champion that he asked for despite not working his way into a position where he should be given a shot. Was offered what was a career high payday for him and then still turned it down to fight Renold Quinlan for the IBo and pretended it was a real title. Then got completely shown up the moment he stepped up once again.

    AJ and Hearn didn't go quiet they reponded both to Wilder's team and publically that they refused it due to not wanting to fight in America.

    Turns out the offer would have been funded by F. Warren and for it to be shown on BT so it would have been a totally void due to AJ's contract with Sky. Quite clearly a self promotional tatic by Wilder's team as they werent serious about fighting AJ and their lack communications back to Hearns offer indicate this.

    Hearns contract was a take it or leave it flat fee offer. Undisputed , unification fights aren't made off flat fee offers.

    He has got several,one of which is a pro boxer who he holds no reaponsibility for.Nathaniel Wilson.

    Seb Eubank is another son who was a good amateur,Harlem his nephew is a pro and his brothers were both pro’s,one of them scored an early career win over Barry McGuigan.

    Fighting family.

    Wilder, he is a total embarrassment to his country and has single handily destroyed the solid reputation the truly great American heavyweights before him earned.

    I've given up arguing with Wilder fans, they are so delusional, brain washed and stupid it's frightening.

    The worse bunch of "fans" I've ever had the misfortune to engage with and that is really saying something.

    They are far worse than the crazy Pacquiao, Mayweather and Canelo fans, far far worse.
