Joshua vs. Paul: Hearn reveals great demands for money and December doubts

Eddie Hearn says he does not plan for Anthony Joshua to fight someone in December not to be Jake Paul. Matchroom Hearn’s promoter considers Paul (12-1, 7 kos) to be unreliable for the amount of money he would ask to face the former heavy weight champion Joshua.

Paul’s financial expectations

Hearn says you think Jake will want at least 40 million dollars To fight Joshua (28-4, 25 ko), because he knows how “dangerous” the struggle would be for him. Eddie says the ex -victim of Aj Knockout, Francis Ngannou, would “Destroys” Paul. Hearn could be right. Ngannou approached Tyson Fury in 2023, leaving him in a struggle that was marked as a tie at ten rounds.

“For us, we plan to fight someone who is not Jake Paul just because we cannot trust Jake accepting the struggle,” said promoter Eddie Hearn in the Treadmill About Anthony Joshua’s next struggle.

Turki’s disinterest

For the money Paul wants, he would be out of Hearn’s price range, unless Turki Alashikh becomes interested in the fight. He did not seem eager to put in February Canelo Alvarez vs. Jake Paul. Turki preferred that caneal struggle “Real Fighters.” Turki is unlikely to change their minds. If you consider Jake as a youtuber, you will not want to finance a struggle between him and Joshua.

“The struggle is huge. The more you talk about it, the more you realize how great it is and if he (Jake Paul) wants to do it, we will. But we must also plan our future and AJ wants to fight in December,” said Hearn.

Fight Joshua dangerous

“No coincidence ($ 15 million to get Jake agree). There is no coincidence ($ 25 million). He’s hotter,” said Hearn when he asked if Paul would ask for $ 40 million to fight Anthony Joshua. “He has people around him that the bomb is in his head, saying that it is the second coming of Ali. It is not an idiot. He knows the risks associated with this struggle, and this struggle is very dangerous.”

Hearn’s Dazn needs needs

Could Hearn find the money on his own to combat a struggle between Aj and Paul? I would need Dazn to help get the money Jake and Joshua would expect them to be paid for this struggle.

“We must really consider that when we make this struggle. But for the right amount of money for this viral moment, I think Jake will do it. He will not. It’s not a idiot. Know is dangerous. See what happened to Francis Ngannou (he ravaged in two round rounds). Francis Ngannou would destroy Jake Paul,” said Hearn.
