“We don’t want to vacate one of the titles because we want the undisputed fight,” Hearn said to iFL TV. “I mean, don’t get me wrong, if a title was vacated, we’d still fight Wilder, but it wouldn’t be the undisputed fight. Wilder, 33, wants a 50-50 purse split for the Joshua fight, and Hearn isn’t interested in giving him that kind of a split. Hearn says the Joshua vs. Wilder fight will still happen, but it’ll be after Joshua is no longer a champion. Wilder reiterated last Wednesday night that he wants a 50-50 deal right down the middle for the Joshua fight.
