Contract was already sent. Take off the tin foil hat.Here is my guess what will happen next:
Wilder and his team will not be able to come up with a concrete contract, and Hearn will say this. So all those people who have been saying either fighter is ducking each other will just start a fucking wild accusation of stupidness and blame each other for 'ducking' or being 'scared' to fight each other.
Both the derisory 12M offer to Wilder and this offer is just posturing, there is no way Wilder is going to fight Joshua for 12M, and there is no way Wilders team can guarantee that Joshua will get paid 50M(not when Wilders PPV sells like it does)
All stalling and negotiations, but i guess it will keep a lot of you on here entertained trying to reason back and forth about how great one guy is and how the other is scared of fighting.
This post needs more wild windmill punches with your chin exposed.

Why would Wilder and his team refuse a meeting, what are they up to?
They're not stupid, they know a promoter is not going to go on record accepting a deal he hasn't yet seen. AJ has said he is happy with the money, Hearn said it sounds good but he needs to discuss terms and see the money. On the other hand, you have Shirley Finkel refusing to meet to discuss said terms and Wilder asking YES or NO and giving 48hr deadlines.
It's looking more and more like games are being played with the public, there's no reason to reject a meeting if you are serious about signing that particular deal. This is a big fight, fights like this get made when you stick people in a room, there's no clarity on where the fight takes place, the promotion etc there's clearly a lot more to be negotiated, can't do that if you're hiding from a face to face meeting.
If the terms that Wilder and his team have wrote up are not to Hearn and AJ's liking then of course they are going to have issues and will want to negotiate. AJ never said give me $50m and you can have whatever type of fight you want, there's still a fight that needs to be made here.
do you not believe him, or do you think he's being unreasonable with what he's saying?https://www.boxingscene.com/hearn-50m-offer-bluff-wilders-team-meet-me--127574
Hearn continues to be a Bitch
Who? I know a Shirley Winkel. This can all be explained I'm sure.Why would Wilder and his team refuse a meeting, what are they up to?
