Promoter of the former world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua Eddie Hearn commented on the claims Deontay Wilder, who stated that he does not want to arrange a fight with AJ, since he is the only fighter who brings him money.
“We make money every week, so it’s not entirely true. By the way, we don’t make money on Anthony Joshua’s small fights. You have to think about it and understand what we make when our fighters get paid big money.
Do you know what will happen when Anthony Joshua fights Deontay Wilder? We will make a lot of money. And I'm betting that Joshua will beat Wilder any day of the week. By the way, this will be a tough fight.
I won’t say “the only one,” but the main reason for organizing a boxing event in Saudi Arabia is so that we can all work together and put on what I think is the biggest fight in boxing, which, in my opinion, is the Joshua-Wilder fight. This will all be irrelevant if they lose on December 23rd. At the moment, Wilder is probably aware of the ongoing discussions and the desire of everyone to arrange his fight with Joshua. He will see everything in his own time,” Hearn said in an interview with the YouTube channel Boxing Social.
