Boxing Bombshell: Hearn Declares Joshua-Wilder Match a No-Go?

British fight promoter Eddie Hearn weighed in on the potential matchup between Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder.

"That bout's a no-go now. The folks who were jazzed about making it happen aren't seeing it the same way anymore. The math doesn't add up since Wilder's sitting pretty. It'll be a total mismatch," Hearn dished out to IFL TV. Joshua and Wilder had initially inked a deal to throw down in March. The key stipulation? Both had to come out on top in their December 23 showdowns. Joshua clinched his win early, but Wilder got the short end of the stick in the judges' eyes.
