Fury v Wilder - Destroys AJs income

Nobody knows Usyk. That fight wouldn't bring in **** compared to Fury or Wilder. Usyk will be very well known by the time he puts a school on Bellew. Every fight AJ is involved in is a mega fight money wise

Anthony Johnson can kept hiding under the Queen's dress while two men fight for the pride of their countries.

AJ is boxing's biggest earner this year, at the top of Forbes rich list for boxers. He'll generate tens of millions regardless of who he fights. Should he lose fights at some point then there's comeback fights and rematches which will generate just as much bank. Barring career-affecting injury, or untimely demise, Joshua is now set to make hundreds of millions throughout the course of his career, win or lose.

It doesn’t destroy his income at all, it makes his future (inevitable) fight against the winner bigger than it ever would have been. If they fight, especially if it’s a good fight, the value of both an AJ v Fury and AJ v Wilder fight increases, regardless of who wins. Obviously the winner will be looking to fight Joshua, but the loser (esp. if it’s fury) is still on track for an AJ fight. This is a fight between a liberal champ and a current wbc champ, either can lose without ruining their reputation.

:rofl: you f#cking p#ssy. Lmmfao hahahahaha lol.

Money might be more important than respect for many pro boxers. Money can buy things and respect can't buy anything. Wilder wants to fight AJ to proves he is better. I think even more so he wants the to fight AJ for the money he would make for that fight and the much bigger paydays he would get in future fights if he wins. This was kind of a weird answer. I fail to see how I think applies to my point. No offense.

Joshua is young. Plenty of big opponents will emerge. Usyk could be a huge fight in a year or two, joe Joyce etc. He doesn't need wilder. :rofl: you f#cking p#ssy.

If Wilder fights Fury and KOs him brutally in the first round, he'd still be the B side vs AJ.

Wilder doesn't need to keep pursuing a coward. He doesn't need Joshua. Joshua needs him. He's the coward who wouldn't fight Wilder and the world knows it. So I agree in a way. Whatever they make, l hope that both are satisfied. The money will always be there, the respect won't.Money might be more important than respect for many pro boxers.

As of today there is no Wilder vs Fury fight only both men saying the fight is close to being done.Close only counts in a game of horseshoes. Until the Wilder vs Fury fight is officially announced there is no fight only talk about a possible fight. If Wilder beats Fury I still don't think AJ would ever make anywhere near 100 million bucks for fighting Wilder. If AJ keeps winning I think he can make at least 25 million a fight by fighting other top guys besides Fury or Wilder.

Not in the way you think The Povetkin fight likely puts $25m in Joshua's pocket with the Wilder fight, and Joshua's prioritizing of home advantage, putting maybe $30m in Joshua's pocket (the actual number being $25m-$30m, since Wilder will need more than $15m to hurry up and sit and Hearn already having $45m as about the max he can find in the UK for the event). With those fights done, and Joshua clearly beating Wilder, you then have the rematch in Las Vegas (Hearn likely angles to dictate the event while someone else puts up the money) and the mandatory cycle. Now, Joshua still gets his September fight for $25m with Povetkin, but the April date is now in flux because Pulev will have secured his mandatory shot by the end of October (I don't rate Hughie Fury all that highly, tbh). Joshua vacates the IBF belt to keep his second Wembley date, and he maybe sees $25m to fight a ho-hum guy like Dillian Whyte, and then the expansion stalls. With the American audience likely having Deontay Wilder after he defeats Tyson Fury (folks will ignore the fact that Tyson Fury was the undefeated WBA/IBF/WBO champion, so WBC champion Wilder beating him would technically re-establish the heavyweight title lineage for the first time since Lennox Lewis), the IBF champion floating around somewhere (Pulev vs Miller in Bulgaria, unless Hearn simply locks down his fighters for Joshua), and Joshua in the UK, interest will split up again. Anthony Joshua will be looking at being mandated to fight the Charr-Oquendo winner or see the WBA belt stripped too (maybe a $20m payday).

Let’s assume AJs plan was; 1. Fight Fury and win - $50m 2. Fight Wilder in a mega fight after beating Fury - $100m Gross $150m in total. But now Wilder and Fury done this; If Fury beats Wilder, wave goodbye to AJ v Wilder at $100m. Fury v Wilder will deliver just $50m as there isn’t an international fight in Vegas. If Wilder beats Fury, wave goodbye to AJ v Fury at $50m. Hearn and AJ are check mate.Wilder doesn't need to keep pursuing a coward. He doesn't need Joshua. Joshua needs him. He's the coward who wouldn't fight Wilder and the world knows it. So I agree in a way. Whatever they make, l hope that both are satisfied. The money will always be there, the respect won't.

Hearn is gonna keep AJ safe & far away from Wilder for as long as he can. (To MILK him) Fury potentially stepping up & fighting Wilder in the U.S. makes Hearn/Joshua combo look bad & bumps Fury up a notch in "BALLZ" department. This fight definitely messes with their $$$. The split they will have to do with the winner will be expensive.

Joshua is young. Plenty of big opponents will emerge. Usyk could be a huge fight in a year or two, joe Joyce etc. He doesn't need wilder. He doesn't need Wilder if he doesn't mind watching his stock plummet...

Lol, some of these guys just make me laugh. They care so much about Joshua and Hearn losing money, they are here constantly reminding him that he turned down 50m dollars.

It puts the winner in great position bargaining-wise. And takes the loser off the table for now, forcing AJ and Eddie to come to the table and make a fair deal. Eddie’s been playing checkers. Wilder’s team is playing three-dimensional chess.

But the narrative is that AJ is scared because he already turned down 50 million. If he's turned down 50 million .. all he's doing now is doing the same thing and losing one of the two opponents his detractors feel can beat him. If he only gets to face one of them..because one has lost to the other, then provided he wins he gets to feast on bums until gorman, Dubois or kownacki reach the top level. And all the while his casual UK fans will be giving him 30 million purses for that bum feasting. At least.. that's what the case would be if the truth fit the narrative
