Comments Thread For: Wilder Reacts To Ruiz's 50-50 Demand: You Ain't Nobody Compared To Me, Stop That!

Better than Ruiz’. But it’s not just the PPV it’s the gate and overall buzz. When’s the last time anyone of note mentioned Ruiz’ name. 3, 4 years ago maybe.

Only 10,000 buys better than Ruiz’. That’s basically nothing.

Everyone knows who Ruiz is. He has the single biggest win between the two of them.

About as well as Fury’s ratings on ESPN I suppose. Both of them did big money because they were fighting each other. I’d like to see the numbers for Ruiz’s standalone (ie no big name opposite) fights since we are comparing. There is no one in heavyweight division that pulls big ppv numbers in the usa..NO ONE. Regardless of race, ethnicity, or nationality..

Right.

Which is why trying to force Ruiz to take 30% is delusional.

He has his own statue in Alabama. Brotha deserves more based on his public popularity and positive impact on over all society

I hope this is a joke. It's hard to tell on here with the many weirdo's about.

That’s ridiculous and you know it. Wilder puts buts in seats and Ruiz doesn’t. Wilders well know and Ruiz isn’t. Period point blank. 35 40% for Ruiz and I’m not sure he deserves that.

Wilder has spent his career failing to put butts in seats. He couldn't even fill a small arena most of the time. Stop lying. Wilder does enough of that already.

If you”d give Ruiz a 50/50 split you’re dumber than I thought.

Well than all I can say to that is that you're probably one of the very few that would accept that disrespectful offer.


On a different topic did you hear that Matias has been ordered to defend against Shohjahan Ergashev next?
That one of the reasons he was left to contemplate fighting Lipinets next was, because Gary Antuanne Russell turned down the opportunity?

You have to back that up with a link or something!

You're calling it disrespectful, but is is true? Would 30% from a Wilder PPV, be more than 70% of a Showtime fight vs. Sanchez and Pero? It's called the "market!" He couldn't make a deal with Fury, he passed on Hrgovic, Usyk has a mando, Joshua is fighting Whyte, so what does Andy do?

Checkout Cano Loco Sports, for the Russell turning down Matias fight, he has some really good behind the scene's information.
I believe that order to fight Ergashev next was on ************, now Boxingscene might not allow the sight to be shown on my reply.
I thought that there was a matter of trust built up between are post's, and comments, but if there's not then no further heads up will be provided.

Imo the fight isnt 50/50 but Wilder is utterly delusional thinking it should be 70/30.

Wilder and his team need to cut the BS, offer something reasonable like 55/45 l, Ruiz needs to cut the BS and take anything from 55/45- 60/40.

Haymon can easily make this fight happen. Stop wasting time. It would be an entertaining fight.

Good post.

30% is an extreme lowball.

There is but that one seems unbelievable! That being said, I only deal with this site, BoxingNews 24/7, Bad Left Hook, and Ring Magazine.
