Hearn seemed pretty confident AJ will fight Wilder in December. What do you think the chances are it actually happens?

I’m of the belief, that like all highly anticipated fights, now it isn’t as big as it once would have been, the fuckers will sign contracts and get it on.

I believe, then again, I'm a sucker for getting hyped about future fights. The saving grace with this one is AJ and Wilder are both in the right place that this fight makes sense commercially, they both know this is a big payday and a chance to get a another huge payday with potentially the undisputed champ off the back of it, even though that undisputed heavyweight champ is doomed to never happen.

Yeah I think it could happen, not a good matchup for AJ though
