Comments Thread For: Team Povetkin Ready For HUGE Deontay Wilder Purse Bid

[Tobi.G]

Even if Wilder thinks Povetkin kicks has ass why would he turn down the $15M+ payday thats being suggested he'd get for this fight? I think thats too much money for Wilder to turn down.

You really think Wilder would get 15M+? I would say he gets about 8-10M

Damn take the money and take on the 2nd most corrupt boxing nation?
Seems like deontay is going to have to trade his belt for the money no way he gets a decision there

... do you forget Wlad? He went to Moscow, took the millions and beat Povetkin by wide decision...

... but wait!... your boy Wilder isn't Wlad, right?...

Pretty sure the most corrupt nation for boxing is the US. You just see it as promoter play because youre numb to it all. Its that bad in the US, you expect bad scorecards most of the time

It might not even go to purse bid. I am sure there will be some hot and heavy negotiating before it comes to that point.

Both guys will get paid no matter what happens and the fight could still be in America.

The billionaires behind Ryabinsky while not frugal with their money they most likely want to do something that makes financial sense.

At the end of the day, people want to make money off a business venture.

Boxing in Russia is big business. They are trying to establish boxing as a huge sport over there, and with the champions theyve recently acquired, they could probably pull it off. A heavyweight champion would be extremely marketable, and an undisputed rematch with Wlad would sell crazy. They dont shy away from spending because they practically dont care, not with those Gazprom links...

Can't wait to hear from you after the povetkin fight when povetkin loses. Will you be one or the posters who vanishes and feels like a fool or will you actually give him the credit like he should have gotten after the stiverne fight or are you one of those people who says poor stirverne was sick and prob had a tummy ache and that's why he loss. I'll be here after the fight win or lose but mark my words he will win no doubt.
Freakin wilder haters. All this hate for no reason. Tomato can this tomato can that blah blah it's not like there's a povetkin and klitchko around the corner for every fight who would you suggest for him to fight that's not AJ, Fury, pov, or klit what what make you guys happy? Because obviously fury and klit are occupied and AJ he's not ready and povetkin is next so who do you suggest?

If this fight goes to purse bid & if this Russian billionaire is legit in saying he's willing to pay $20M+ for the purse bid, & he's suggesting its in the $23M range he's paid before, than Wilder is getting $15M+ cuz the champion gets 75%.

are you deontay?

Haha no sadly I am not.

He did get credit for beating Stiverne but that's one top ten foe whose whole career credential was beating an Arreola who, as a pro for over a decade, NEVER beat a top ten contender of note. Ever. Stiverne was a good win, but to follow it with two more borderline no hopers isn't anything people should applaud. He would get, and deserve, credit for beating Povetkin. I think that's a tough fight both ways. Unlike many, I think Wilder will take that fight after this.

That doesn't make Molina and Duhaupas goo in the meantime. There are several more proven Heavyweights with nothing on the schedule like Charr or even Thompson. That's the level he should be at after Stiverne. It's not 'hating' to suggest a top ten Heavyweight should fight more than one contender before everyone breaks out the knee pads.

Yeah I understand where your coming from. At least you have your own opinion and you state facts and you stick to it unlike others saying "oh deontay sucks" "he's a fraud" " he's a glass jawed pu**y" blah blah people just love to talk nonsense. He's actually good for the sport. I can see people talking about mayweather but this guys is actually good and cool and yeah people mention he's a POS for trouble with the law back then but that was a long time ago. He's humble and his interviews are great. People just love to hate. But all good they looked like fools with the stiverne fight and they will look like fools again. And yeah I can see him fighting those guys like Thompson rather then Johann but either way we know who he's fighting next and I think he's just getting ready for that because after povetkin it's prob fury and klitchko or one or the other. Most likely klitchko. Maybe a Thompson type inbetween.
