I'm pretty sure that it's the other way round.Any gossip on why deontay keeps knocking back joshuas offer?
Location?...money?
Not my words, but someone summed up who's fault it was in the whole saga here...Any gossip on why deontay keeps knocking back joshuas offer?

Anyone who doesn’t think that after all he’s done has no intention of ever re-evaluating or challenging their opinion. I actually came into this negotiation thinking AJ would be eager to fight Wilder and make it big internationally and shut up his doubters one more time. Horribly disappointed at the sham he’s allowed Eddie to put on.
Literally the evidence against AJ is: refusal to entertain or offer a percentage split in a unification. We saw how he offered it right away to Parker because he actually wanted that fight. Literally the debate should be over there. There’s no other reason to explain no percentage split when he’s happy to offer a lesser draw in Parker one.
Offering a lowball 12 million flat fee and saying it was “take it or leave it” before denying it was take it or leave it after getting s**t on in the press.
Promise to fight for 50 mill, then coming up with a number of excuses for not agreeing to terms (no contract as if he doesn’t know terms are agreed to before contracts drafted and no proof of funds before denying he ever asked for proof of funds) before turning it down because he suddenly decided he wanted a UK fight.
Signing to face Povetkin after sending a contract without date/venue/rematch clause that Wilder didn’t sign for obvious reasons and acting like its Wilder’s fault that he didn’t sign it.
Hearn announcing a set of Wembley dates that would’ve taken months to negotiate when he was negotiating a Wilder fight in the US. Come on, are people really delusional enough to not realize what that means?
Barry Hearn ******* saying Finkel wanted the fight, but Matchroom didn’t lmfao as if Barry wasn’t Matchroom’s Chairman
Evidence against Wilder:
Was almost a week late with counteroffer (the only actually shitty thing his team did)
Finkel Cancelled a single meeting with Eddie before meeting with Barry and (in the words of Eddie) answering the concerns Eddie had about finances. I still see Brits on this sub bring this up as if even Hearn stopped using this argument because he didn’t think people would fall for it.
Warren saying he wanted to bid on the fight’s rights if it happened in the US. A last minute excuse Eddie came up with as if he wasn’t aware that BT would try to bid on a fight that happens in the US.
If you like seeing a man get beaten up in slowly and painfully, then this is the fight for you. Bellew is gonna get crushed here. And this won't be a one punch knockout, it'll either be a stoppage, or Bellew will cop an absolute beating, and get destroyed on the cards, kinda like Vitali vs Briggs.
Yeah a lot is being made of Usyk not having the 1 punch KO power but his skills and movement for a big guy are sublime, so agreed, Bellew is gonna get beaten like a stray dog.If you like seeing a man get beaten up in slowly and painfully, then this is the fight for you.

That being said, I'm sure as hell gonna watch it. Fox Sports rarely has any boxing, try to watch every event to make the most of it.
Any more talk on trying to get Lomachenko to fight in Sydney?
There's a telegraph article from Oct but it's behind a paywall.
God if they got him to Melb I'd drive over for sure
