Comments Thread For: World Of Boxing Wins Wilder-Povetkin Purse Bid

They only get one bid? I was always under the impression they could make multiple bids.

I think you only get one. I remember for Russel/Lomachenko GBP bid $1 more than Top Rank and that was final.

Always wanted to go there. Love the architecture. Not sure I can convince my girl that our overseas trip will be based on a boxing fight though lol

nope, its a sealed bid auction. You hand over your bid envelope and they open it and thats the end of it.

Most promoters bring 2 envelopes though. 1 envelope with a low bid if there are no other bidders, and a 2nd envelope with a higher bid if there are competing bids.

The bum squad hype train just hit a brick wall.

How do these bids things works, not what happens to the combined $12 million + that both promoters bidded?

I'll believe it when I see the two in the same ring.

That's nuts. I couldn't imagining bidding on something in that fashion.

This is going to be interesting to see how this plays out. Hopefully they reach an agreement. Wilder better get used to this because probably to make he Fury fight he will have to travel over seas.

Wilder already said he'll travel over seas for a unification fight with fury hope it happens

Wilder will get around 4.5m if he loses (63%)
Or around 5.2m if he wins (73%)

Good money for Wilder either way.

Time to dust off the passport and go to war in Russia.

BBBoooMMMbbb SSSqqqUUUaaaDDD!!!

Don't combine only money gets split is whoever wins bid can only put in one bid

[bojangles1987]

Damn, I would have expected a bigger winning bid. I'm just glad the fight is happening, though. Really looking forward to it.
