(boxingnews24) Wilder said he will take the fight if he is guaranteed Joshua next. Now Hearn says he wants Fury for Joshua in 2018? Its obvious he is willing to spend some $$$, hoping Whyte will KO Wilder, and he will go away.

Hearn says "If you beat Dillian Whyte, you’re value in the Joshua fight, your earnings for the Joshua fight will probably go up 10 to 15 percent. That could be $7 to $10 million dollars improved purse in that fight."

Is it fuzzy math or is Hearn simply not that smart? 15% of 4 million adds $600K last time I checked. :roll:
I’d say you need to wake up and smell the coffee. But all you can smell is Wilders ring piece
It is obvious you hate Wilder and love Joshua and Hearn. Being butthurt because someone put facts in front of you isn't a good look though. Prove me wrong, debate like an adult, or don't reply to my posts dipshit.
Hold on a second, you genuinly expect Dillian Whyte to KO Wilder? Dillian Whyte can't even KO Hastings Rasani, Remigijus Ziausys, or Tayar Mehmed, let alone David Allen, Chisora or Helenius. Sorry, but Whyte is only there to advert the fight, to show the UK fanbase what Wilder is capable of and if he and his team is seriously scared for that, you can't blame the UK fans to dislike this fight.

Wilder wants it in writing that if he takes the $3 million offered to fight Whyte, and wins, he gets Joshua next. Spin it however you want, but Wilder won't fight Whyte without the guarantee, and I don't blame him.
dont really see why its good business to turn down the 4m offer

if wilders really being offered 4m for whyte (now up from 3m) and there arnt any ridiculous conditions he should just take it. routine win for nice money. joshua not being guarnteed doesnt make it a bad deal. pretty sure wilder usually only makes around 1m for fights (last time 900k us) and i dont see whyte as a major threat. if you think aj really is ducking dont you want wilder to get on with his career and making money?

how is taking the whyte fight for 4m not a step up financially from business as usual for deontay?

Wilder has said he would take it if guaranteed Joshua next if he wins. Hearn won't do it, so money doesn't matter as much. He would make more money by far, but unifying is more important he says.

Now Hearn has talked to Fury and Parker about fights but not Wilder. He wants to milk the cash cow instead of the risk of fighting Wilder. The fight doesn't need to marinate. Wilder vs AJ is the biggest HW fight in boxing NOW, by far.
