It's 100% Official Wilder is ducking Anthony Joshua

[powerpuncher]

It sounds pretty bad. I would like to hear Wilder’s excuse.

Ron is going to come in here and tear you a new one though...

[Ron Swanson]

It looks bad. His story is that he was going to fight Breazeale either way, this way he is a free agent and can still negotiate with AJ or Fury for next fight. If he doesn’t fight AJ or Fury next he’s a punk, plain and simple.

As for Hearn fandom, you all can tell each other fairy tales all you want. The dude lied over and over. But if he can tell you 2 contradictory things and you believe both then you deserve what you get.

THIS -

A 24 hour bs $50m offer with no contract, and no proof of funds from Wilder's personal email address, and Wilderette's say AJ was ducking.
A $100m offer with a contract, and proven funds from a huge network who have already paid millions to other top fighters, and Wilderette's will still say AJ is ducking somehow.
It is unbelieveable.
The truth will come out on Tuesday for all to see, and stupid Wilder fans will be left with zero credibility, not that they have much at the moment anyway.

I was reading Showtimes side and I agree with you. If he just fights Brazeale on Showtime and then fights AJ on DAZN next, no big deal. If he signs a three fight deal with Showtime after this fight, I will call it a duck, unless the deal is better than DAZN gives him.

Anybody have anything on Wilder himself saying it? Not doubting the veracity of the British press or anything... but Tuesday's come and gone and supposedly there was going to be a big announcement by Wilder.

I like to hear things straight from the horse's mouth.

As much as it pains me I'm good with Wilder and camp basically shutting it down till after mandatory. Either way both have to clear some road debris regardless of house. Is there any doubt Hearn and company will not repeat some form of the offer? The whole point of coming Stateside. Eddies chasing him like a used car dealer off the lot and might do well to be less involved or at least stfu every so often . Look I'm not even convinced Wilder doesn't get flattened by some Breazeale uppercut thrown from his shoelaces but Wilder has options with Dazn going so big so loud..and still owning a trinket insures it. Much of this is also up to AJ and his imminent date with Big Hoss Miller. Finkel sounds like he's playing the long con too with Tyson era bs.

Wilder and Shelly said - we turned down $15 million last year, now we've turned down $120 million, what will they offer us next (with big smiles on their faces).

Also Wilder isn't a slave, he does what he wants and $120 million/Joshua is irrelevant to him. Also Eddie calls Shelly Shirley, which is disrespectful, American's don't like disrespect (these are his words).

Ron, the Breazeale fight isn't PPV. I thought Wilder was a PPV fighter in his own right now? Remember... we'll see what his 2nd PPV does and all that?

To be fair , the one part I do agree with is Hearn calling him Shirley Winkle all the time. I said at the time, it wasn't even particularly funny and if he kept on saying it, it would backfire on him . Bit out of order from Hearn, but more cringey than anything.
