      So you think 75-25 is a fair deal?

      I personally think it's a little harsh.

        It's called ducking, plain and simple.

        This idea that the risk of losing would kill AJ's value at the box office is also wrong.

        There's no evidence/data to support the argument that taking a loss hurts a fighter at his level in terms of ticket sales. Just look at PPV history (the data is a "pay per view" Google search away). If anything, losing makes the guy more money b/c of rematches.

        It's time to stop with the bull**** arguments and make the fights we need. Parker is fighting Browne, Joshua should be fighting Wilder next.

          Hearn said he reached out and contacted Finkel and Finkel returned the call and asked about putting Joshua in the Whyte contract. That's all they did. Confirmed by Finkel don't try to twist ****.

          They haven't tried to negotiate the Joshua fight at all.
          Robbie I know its hard for you to accept this after all the effort you made thinking you were making progress in protecting A.J, it must suck knowing Finkle took a big dump on your **** threads and made you and the UK fanboys look like a bunch of wimpy euros.

            Is what i say not true?

            Wilder and his team never tried to negotiate a Joshua fight. Finkel confirmed it.

                Three days straight and you're still on here carrying the AJ torch? Work must be boring lol you're obviously one of those AJ fanboys that the brits come on here complaining about.

                    Did you read my post? Jeff Lacy wasn't a US star at all. He was a good fighter but had no public following to speak of. You must not be from the US. I'm talking about PPV caliber guys.

                      Does someone have to be a fan of the other fighter if he disagrees with a fighters bull**** and his ******ed fans?

                      Why aren't you complaining about the Wilder nuthuggers? Because you're one?
