Per fat boy Dan Showtime is NOT getting the fight it will be FOX PPV.
http://www.espn.com/boxing/story/_/id/26842656/wilder-picks-rematch-ortiz-next-bout
Although the date and site were not announced, the fight is likely to land at Staples Center in Los Angeles, the same site where Wilder fought to an exciting draw with lineal champion Tyson Fury on Dec. 1. The rematch with Ortiz is likely to take place in September and on Fox pay-per-view, a source with knowledge of the plans told ESPN on Tuesday night.
Anyone with a brain knows how much each bring to the table. It's not hard unless you're completely stupid. So don't worry yourself.
No, the worst and the most deranged are Americans. You should watch some videos of Wilder and read the comments. we can clearly see you're mostly mentally ill and scary insane. None of you make any sense. You have no self awareness or anything. You're just brutally deluded. You actually make my flesh crawl. You ruin this place. Like you ruin everything you touch with your brattish behaviour.
Awww...such kind words for me. Did I pinch a nerve there?:kiss:
I don’t get this notion that Wilder delaying the fight means he’ll get 50-50.... he won’t because FOX or PPV whoever is broadcasting his fights won’t keep losing money on his fights just to stroke his ego. Hearn or AJ are not going to give him 50%.... If Wilder wants to waste time then more power to him, he’s 4 years older than Joshua and more likely to get clipped in one his defences.
Whichever way you flip it Wilder needs Joshua more because Joshua can just as easily bide his time fighting whatever mandatory in the UK. And unlike with Wilder those fights will actually be profitable. (Seriously how much did Showtime lose on that Breazeale fight?).
No one with any sense sees the logic in getting 50/50 by delaying the fight. But hey, Americans and their ideas.
If Wilder was able to pull in equal to what AJ is doing now? No problem. Split it down the middle. But he's never going to reach that level. Showtime are already losing money as it is. They will probably lose more money having to pay Ortiz what he turned down against AJ plus paying Wilder a lot more due to being champ. And this is PPV. You're supposed to MAKE money on PPV's, not lose it.
I'm sure they lost a fair whack on paying Wilder for that Brezeale fight. He only generates about 4-5 Million. So with him getting just under 10 Mill, and Brezeale getting 2.5 Mill, it's clear their numbers don't stack up. But hey, they're doing this to convince AJ and Hearn that Wilder is a money maker too. Haha. We're told Al is some kind of master. Yeah, he looks like a real master to me. Haha.
Who's to decide the deal? the two parties involved or the onlookers?
Brit fans are the worst. No wonder they get banned in away football matches too.

no date yet...no venue yet....FIGHT CAN'T HAPPEN! that has to be in the contract! i know it has to be in the contract because wilder fanatics have been saying that and they are the most knowledgeable and least biased people on here.
Fight can't happen without date and venue in contract, it's a well known fact by Wildtards.

But Wilder isn't worth 50/50. So it's you who's the stupid one here.
Wilder is a duck. So are his fans. Cowardice is a strong thing in the US.
AJ needs to use Wilder's name to make a name for himself? You're beyond deluded. You'll do fine as a wilder fan.
Derp derp.

the HW division is really thin. so damn thin that Ortiz is a top 5 HW even after looking like sh.it in his bouts after the Wilder loss. in other words theres not too many other opponents for Wilder to pick from (AJ, Fury, Whyte aside..)
If Hearn and Joshua thinks Wilder is not worth 50-50 split, then why keep calling him? why keep saying we want the fight next? why? for publicity sake?
That's like finding a man about to drive away on his $10,000 car, going up to him and saying: Hey, I really want to buy your car. Sell it to me. However, I think it is a piece of ***** and I'll pay $6,000 for it. Then keep repeating that and accusing the man of being a duck for not selling you at that price.
Doesn't that sound stupid to you?
If you're not going to pay the man his worth, just leave him alone. Why keep bringing him up to make a name for yourself?

I did notice that this contract was signed with date and venue TBA. I thought date and venue TBA was like garlic to a vampire to Finkel and Wilder?? Although with the Joshua offer EVERYBODY knew the date and venue it just wasnt in writing.
Don't say things like this you big bully. You know it exposes all their hypocrisy and excuses.
They're allowed to do it because they're better than everyone else. You should know this by now. Haha.
Here is what i think will happen
1. Wilder vs Breazeale > Joshua vs Ruiz
2. Wilder vs Ortiz > Joshua vs Pulev
3. Wilder vs Kownaki > Joshua vs Char (or whoever is the mando)
4. Wilder vs Fury/Whyte >>> Joshua vs XYZ
Team Wilder...So AJ and Hearn, who is the A-side now? Wanna talk 50-50 and a fair rematch clause? Otherwise, we have another similar 3 fight deal in waiting.
Its all about finances and ego at this point.
And will Wilder make as much money as AJ is now when he "Wins" those fights?
You have no business acumen. None.
I was hyped for the rematch until Ortiz age really showed in his last fight and he hasn’t been put in with a top contender since losing to Wilder!
This fight lasts as long as Wilder wants it to!
Anyways, The BobFather was right! He said both HBO and Showtime will do away with doing business in boxing, Won’t be long before we hear Showtime completely leaves it alone for good!
Without Floyd around to bring the brinks truck they don’t see anyone else to match that void, even an old Pacquiao isn’t enough!
Thanks for the memories Showtime!
But I thought Wilder was a star? He's the biggest and most popular name in boxing isn't he? That shltty Google search in the US said it was so, so i'm perplexed why they aren't in the game in a big way.
Derp derp.
And people still complaining that DAZN isn’t a good deal when this is your alternative.
Ridiculous decision to put this on PPV
So let’s play devils advocate, because I’ve been paying for DAZN since September.
What matches have they put on better than wilder/Ortiz since then?
Wilder's fans helped their coward duck AJ by agreeing with him that he should get 50/50, so now he's fighting guys nobody wants on PPV to reward them but they're up in arms. Haha.
You've got to love the stupidity of the dribblers. They deserve everything they get.
Would prefer to see Wilder face Joshua/Fury/Whyte in that order but considering the last fight I can see an appeal to this.
But no one can say Wilder wants the AJ fight any time soon at this point he has said as much and his actions have certainly confirmed it.
If this fight does poor numbers its going to be a problem though. I think the last fights numbers showed a surprising lack of growth in popularity and Showtime are gun shy after that. Fights build over time if the momentum is there, lose that momentum the interest starts to fade.
If Showtime are finished that should mean Brendan Schaub will no longer be paid to talk boxing, I think we can all agree thats a positive.
If Hearn and Joshua thinks Wilder is not worth 50-50 split, then why keep calling him? why keep saying we want the fight next? why? for publicity sake?

It's the belt they want. Wilder wants as much as possible for it. End of story.
Like I said bro, I wouldn't offer him another penny. The offer's on the table, call me when you're ready. But hey, that's just me.
Enjoy the fights.
Wilder's numbers don't warrant 50/50, point blank period.
By the the you've finished fannying about Wilder will be what, 35? 36?
And you're advocating another 3 fights?
Personally I wouldn't offer Wilder another cent.

I'm very surprised that this is heading to PPV.
Can't afford to pay Wilder even half the money he left on the table from the DAZN offer without him fighting on PPV even if it's for fights that make no sense on PPV.
