This Is Why You Turn Down A 15M Flat Fee

Unlucky. But at least you admitted you got it wrong. There aren't that many posters that would do that. Easy mistake to make when so many countries use differing types of Dollar. True, i can respect when you get something wrong and its pointed out to you and you admit your error. Some would find it hard to do so. Me too on a number of occasion lol.

More fake news form team wilder fans Wilder turned down 15m usd The purse you listed is aus dollars which is the 7m we all know he made as it was 50-50 and we know what fury got Wilder ducked aj for to fight for Less than half against fury

He turn it down for the same reason Whyte turned it down, they both want to gamble on themselves, build the fight and get more money. I don't have any issues with that. The only issue was he claimed "No more dodging" no more hiding behind financials" etc Then he got offered 5/6 times his usual gaurantee and then didn't sign the contract that was sent to him (The excuse of no date/venue has already been debunked). His team offered 50m dollars with NO contract, no negotiation, no meetings etc. Then we learn that the reason why they did that was because the money was coming from Team Joshua Rival TV network (Bt sport - Confirmed by Lou di bella/Warren). So all these he made this and that is now irrelevant, he all know he choose to make less now to make more later by building up the Joshua fight. This is what i thought both teams were doing from the get go, but it looked to me like this was Team Wilder doing that alone from the get go. Use Joshua name to propel Wilder's name and by the time the fight happens it would be happening in america on showtime PPV for 50/50.

We all make mistakes bro :) I sure do. Unlike some folks, I aint afraid to admit getting something wrong. Even the best make mistakes; a man who cannot admit one is a man who isn't growing any wiser.

LOL, what a great thread this one is. Wilder was offered 12.5 and then 15 million when he has just made a career high pay day of 2.1 million v Ortiz. Time has moved on, Wilders popularity has grown and with it have the offers from Joshua. He turned it down cuz he can make so much more without Joshua and went on to make half of what Joshua offered. It was Wilders choice, it was up to him, fair enough what ever but the Wilder fans actually have the nerve to turn round and try mock the offers TO THIS DAY, TO THIS DAY, when the reality is Wilder turned down more money than he can earn cuz he said it was no where near as much money as he can earn. And then went on to prove he couldnt earn it. And the Wilder fans want to mock the offer?

I think Wilder was banking on the long layoff & it backfired. I agree with the draw but I can see how it looked rigged. I think Wilder knows he barely escaped defeat & will put Fury down hard as he knows that he almost lost out on the AJ payday. AJ knows he has to get past Miller to get the big pay vs Wilder. AJ lacks head movement but he makes up for it with his subtle shoulder movement. I wouldn't be surprised if Miller & Fury both pull off upsets.

End thread. This sh.it was ignorant.

Yep. Got this wrong, plain and simple. However, I am not the first person to confuse currency and I won't be the last. Folks say "Fury only made 7M" but that is pounds- he made more than that in US dollars. And Warren said "50/50" but the guaranteed purses were more 57/43 for Wilder. We all make mistakes bro :) I sure do.

No, actually a draw or a decision either way would have been fine. Fury could easily have lost that fight on the cards. No, he was an egregious robbery. Literally nobody thinks Wilder won even the polls which are tilted by his retarded fanboys are like 90/10.

Hearn offered 15M dollars. Wilder made 12M dollars at least if the 57/43 ratio holds up. I doubt that he made more than 10 million. PPV and gate sales don't add up to that amount.

Found this little gem today, dated for 3 days ago. We know Wilder made a little more than Fury. The guarantees were 4M for Wilder and 3M for Fury. Well, if those proportions were consistent in the pay-out, then Wilder made 17.3M to Fury's 13M. But, even at 50/50, it's clear both men made a lot more than just 7M. https://www.news.com.au/sport/boxing/tyson-fury-confirms-he-made-good-on-13-million-promise/news-story/8bc00773921bd97960ba7914d5622f04 The thing is it all depends on how much negotiating juice you got. You may be in a position to hold out till the fight blows up and is 10 times bigger, but it gos the other way too your clock could be ticking and the more fights you keep taking your just exposing all your weaknesses inside the ring. Like Fury exposed a lot in Wilder and this gives Joshua more stuff to work on

You're reaching and trying to defend this because you know it was a dumb decision. We will see how much of a reach it is when the fight is finally made, if Hearn wants to make a decent offer now. My guess is that after the Miller fight, he will.

The guarantees have nothing to do with the split. Warren said the split was 50/50, not 57/43. Stop making **** up. Wilder should have a L. It was a dumb decision. No, actually a draw or a decision either way would have been fine. Fury could easily have lost that fight on the cards.

He turned down 15 mil to make 7 and lost the damn fight. It was a retarded decision, if not for the robbery it would have been one of the biggest fails in boxing history. Now it is you mixing currency. Hearn offered 15M dollars. Wilder made 12M dollars at least if the 57/43 ratio holds up. He has a shot at much more in the rematch...with AJ still out there if he gets past Fury. And, you can bet a fall fight with AJ will be for much more than a flat 15M or even 60/40, depending on how impressive he is in the rematch. So, maybe not such a bad decision after all. We will see.

Guaranteed purses and split are two entirely different things. This is true. But there is more to it. The analogy is like realtors working on developing properties. Say you are a realtor that makes about 100K a year. You know another guy that makes about 500K a year. There's a project that means a possible 1.7 million in net. It takes both of you to do it. He says to you, if we do this you get 300K, it's 3 times your best salary. But, that means he gets 1.4 million, which is almost 3 times his as well. Would any of you accept such a split, knowing you are needed just as much to make the 1.7 million? Knowing he cannot possibly pull of that deal without you? I wouldn't. Especially when there is another guy in the office just like me who can also eventually get me a deal like that. Yeah, we may do a smaller deal at first, but the second one me and the other guy will do might be every bit as big as the deal the first guy offered. And I get treated better with the second guy. That's the situation Hearn created. His lowballing has been a blessing in disguise tho. We are getting good fights in division. And we may still get the mega showdown everyone wants to see.

Oh damn. That's an epic fail of a thread if I ever seen one. Yep. Got this wrong, plain and simple. However, I am not the first person to confuse currency and I won't be the last. Folks say "Fury only made 7M" but that is pounds- he made more than that in US dollars. And Warren said "50/50" but the guaranteed purses were more 57/43 for Wilder.

Oh damn. That's an epic fail of a thread if I ever seen one.

That's Australian dollars. :lol1: The fight was 50/50 confirmed by Warren. Try again desperate guy, Tell me, do you have a link that proves Wilder made only 7M? I'd like to see it...
