Yes that was in 19, a full year after Eddie offered Wilder 3 low ball flat fee's which Wilder accepted to call they're bluff only for them or run away, at the same time Aj went on a sky TV interview with Johnny Nelson & when asked about Wilder Aj said"i won't be rushed into the Wilder fight "when asked when he said"19 20 21"Hearn then said 2020. Wilder even got the 50 mill flat fee together to make the fight (proven) bit Aj carried on his shot old 38-41 yr olds & cans cycle & still lost.
Also the Dazn offer wasn't a direct fight with Aj & Dazn admitted they got the offer wrong.
Wilder went on to have the biggest heavyweight trilogy since Bowe Holyfield in the 90s while Aj, what did he do?

Deontay Wilder Rejects DAZN's Mega $100 Million Deal
Mar 15, 2019
so as you can see, joshua parlayed wilders offer and secured a huge dazn deal instead of taking the 50 million. he earned more than 50 million for the ruiz 2 fight alone. he got long term security with the dazn deal instead of a 1 fight proposition(smart), but most important of all is that after securing his money, he went back to wilder and offered him 100 million to fight which wilder rejected. remember at this time wilder was only making a couple million a fight and joshua offered him 100 million for 3 fights. they tried to overpay him to lure him over. did wilder earn that much for his next 3 fights which were breazele, ortiz, and fury 1? nope. he earned somewhere around 60 million for those 3 and the only reason he got that much is because he parlayed joshuas offer to increase his purses.
so in summary joshua used wilders offer to make MORE MONEY. wilder used joshuas offer to make LESS MONEY. joshua got his money and still tried to fight wilder. wilder got less money and then never tried to fight joshua.Last edited by daggum; 04-24-2023, 01:37 PM.
