Agree? If you are wilder and you've just beaten Fury, you are easily the A side to the AJ fight. Same with Tyson fury, beat wilder and he is the A side to the AJ fight.
This is a great move by both boxers. AJ and Eddie Hearn have just been played.
I dunno, Big man.
Being a beltholder AND the lineal?
The guy that comes out the winner might have at least equal negotiating power, especially if the fight itself is a financial success.
If belts were that important why did Triple G only get 35% against Canelo.
814,000 folks tuned into BT to see his comeback against a nobody.
I think he'll be able to sell quite a few PPVs vs a real opponent like Wilder
Wrong.
Of those 800k how many do you think are coming back after watching that farce of a fight?
At 5am?
Fury isn't even headlining his next fight.
Fury has never been a PPV monster & Wilder can't even sell out an arena in 'Bama. Fighting each other will do little to raise either man's PPV drawing power.

And all it will take is one or two episodes of ALL ACCESS airing right in the middle of the NFL late season games (CBS owns Showtime) to pretty much guarantee a minimum of 300K US buys.
It is very, very real. 1 million regularly tuned in to see golovkin fight on HBO but when he went ppv 170k was sold.....free is in money nothing and then ppv at $70 a pop , big differnce gumbo lol
You think wilder fury does 50k PPV buy? HAHAHAHA
Wilder fury SMASHES any PPV AJ has done and that's a fact. I sound like Rafa now, fact does it f@ck lol.....fury couldnt even half sell out the manchester arena when he was due to fight klitchcko in the rematch.
Get a grip son.
Whether yiu like it or not joshua is the undisputed king of box office sales in the uk and fury will never come close.
Deal with it
First of all
Fury is contracted to bt
An inferior platform and his last fight bombed, he will barely break 20k buys in the uk as it won’t be prime time
There is no huge sky packet for fury
Zero chance it does 300k buys in the USA
50k if you are lucky

Just sit back. Close your eyes. And imagine the press conferences between the two. GOLD absolute gold. The press conferences will be LIT
This is the first time I'me willing to see the press conferences hahaha
Them fighting each other would be smart as the winner would have more negotiation power
If wilder beats fury
Yes he deserve 40 percent, even though Ppv buys would be terrible compared to aj, he added a solid win on his resume
Yeah, Wilder vs Fury does at least a million buys on Sky at $28 each.
In the US, I think it isn't too farfetched to say it does at least 300K buys if they make it PPV.
That's very good money and very possible.

I don't think so. Fury definitely is the man that 1st beat the man but his post fight downfall means he is currently fighting guys worse than Wilder usually does.
If you were a casino or big arena, would you trust Fury is ready to carry an event level fight? I wouldn't.
Wilder puts people in the Barclays but that isn't Vegas event level fights.
AJ has proven he can fill Wembley and he'd surely fill Vegas with fans like Hatton did.
AJ is about to be the face of the sport if he gets a huge KO win over Wilder.
No doubt AJ will be the face of boxing sooner or later.
And, I think he will dominate this era.
But, done correctly, I think a Fury-Wilder fight can and should put the winner on equal or close to equal footing in negotiations for a 2019 fight.
If the fight is a financial and popular success, it almost certainly will do that for the winner IMO.
Like posters have been saying, can you imagine what the press conferences are going to look like? Can you imagine what kind of must see TV the Showtime ALL ACCESS will be?
In the short term, this fight and the hype that will go with it just might do the trick as far a unification in early 2019.
I dunno, Big man.

I think it's pretty clear that AJ is the a side in every fight he has and will be until he is defeated.

I doubt either will be the A-side, but they could easily demand a 50/50 split with Joshua, who would need to beat the winner to be considered the lineal and #1 champion.

No!
No one can even imagine how turned up the pressers will be.
But, as I posted earlier, this is the fight that will make ALL ACCESS right on par with anything HBO's 24/7 has ever done.
It'll be so good, CBS will want to air them in primetime.

Yeah right son. The gyppos best fight was an excuciatingly tedious PED assisted win over wlad. Wilders best win is over an OAP cuban. Some A sides! Agree?
