"I think they've made their mind up - they don't want to fight Anthony Joshua. It's frustrating because I think we're in a place where it's a really great deal.
"Wilder has always said 'one face, one name, one champion', but the deal we've offered is more than a fair split for Wilder. And it's two fights - one in the UK and one in the US.
"But he's not even entertaining that fight. Wilder won't even answer the phone, so that's well out the window."
If, as appears likely, Wilder does not agree to fight Joshua in April, Hearn says Dillian Whyte, Tyson Fury and Jarrell Miller are all possible opponents for the Brit.
However, he admits negotiations with Whyte are also providing troublesome, saying: "We've had a great run with Dillian Whyte.
"He wants a shot at the world heavyweight title. We've delivered that - he doesn't feel like the package is right at the moment. I think it is a good offer.
"It was never going to be easy. But you get to a point where you say 'Dillian, this is your chance to fight for four heavyweight belts at Wembley for millions'. What more can we do?
"These kind of opportunities don't come around that often. You're going to own the keys to the kingdom if you can beat Anthony Joshua."
Hearn also revealed he has made an offer to Fury, the former four-belt world champion who most recently drew with Wilder in a split decision in December.
He said: "I've spoken to Tyson and he asked me to make him an offer, which we did. There was talk about 'did I offer him 60-40' - yes, I did.
"He was world heavyweight champion - he's not anymore. AJ is a bigger global star, but Fury deserves so much respect. 60-40 as a voluntary defence - this is a great deal."
With negotiations with Wilder, Whyte and Fury providing frustrating, Hearn says Miller could fill the void and become the next man to try to beat Joshua.
"The one guy that looks like he's up for a fight is Jarrell Miller," said Hearn. "He wants a lot of money, but he's more realistic than the other guys.
"I do feel there is a value to Joshua making his US debut. While our order goes Wilder, Fury, Whyte and Miller, any of those are capable of getting the fight."

Eddie Hearn on Anthony Joshua and whether he will face Wilder, Fury, Whyte or Miller next

Amazes me how AJ and Hearn are continuously criticized despite being the only ones sending multiple offers. Deontay Wilder has received a 15m guarantee and a 40% split of the purse PLUS a two way rematch clause with the 2nd being in the US regardless if he lost. That is an extremely fair offer, more than he deserves. As for Fury, if he declines 40% but takes that same split for Wilder he's also ducking Joshua. These guys want a retirement paycheque, they dont believe they can actually beat AJ.

By the way the 50 million was coming from (BT Sports. Confirmed by Frank, Lou and shirly lol) AJ can not fight for BT sports because he's under contract to SKY sports.
The offer now is 28 million with upside and a rematch in US win or loose. Wilder is fucking coward.

If any of you ever get an LDBC poster crying 50m duck just copy and paste or reword this: The 50m money may or may have not been real but it wasn't a 'real' offer where you could consider it an actual offer Wilder didn't offer nothing and this is why...... a) The 50m was only a possibility if the fight was in Vegas so PBC could recoup their losses. Since the A side calls the shots, this offer is void as A side Joshua stated he wanted the fight in the UK. Noone wants the fight in Vegas....so there is no 50 million PLUS for the 456th time. b) That 50m is worthless without a contract. If I said to you that I am going to give you 1000 bucks to have a boxing fight with me and here is the contract you have to sign but are not allowed to read it, would you accept the 1000 bucks? Yes or No - What I am not telling you is that in the small print is that you have to wear pink frilly shorts, high heels and lipstick and it takes place in a Texas jailhouse and you have to drop the soap in the showers at the end, than would you still sign....... c) The 50m offer was all a 24 hour scam for Hearn and AJ to verbally accept something that was legally binding in New York on the B sides terms without the A side knowing the consequences. I.e Buying a car for 5000 but they don't tell you in the small print that you have to pay 1m for it in 2 months time. Noone is that stupid to fool for that. d) The 50m was only exclusive for AJ to fight on Frank Warren's TV rights to Boxnation on BT Sports. Joshua is exclusively contracted to Sky Sports and always has been so again.... another reason that the 50m was bs. OR Copy and paste them this video Bruce has just done with these other links and tell them to go an watch and that can be aimed at any LDBC channel, Fighthype or any boxer not knowing the truth.
