Comments Thread For: Wilder's Manager: If Vegas Wants Wilder-Joshua, It'll Be There

[KING5TWENTY]

This fight belongs in the US like all major fights or major heavyweight fights. There is more money here and they seem to either want to price tneselves out because they are scared or want to stay in England to milk more money. Wilder brings a large tv audience every time and if AJ foyght in the US for one fight it would be a massive PPV.

Aj fought takam not Wilder.

It would be better for their next fight to be on the same night, at the same venue, somewhere in the States. That'd set it up nicely.

It won't happen, of course...

Only way that that happens would be if they went with a day/night split site event, but I doubt that that works for both guys

[Scipio2009]

Alvarez and Chavez are both draws and have been on PPV prior. Wilder and Joshua aren't. FFS. It's unbelievable how ****** Wilder fans are, seriously this is embarrassing for you.

You're an idiot if you don't think the Q-ratings for Joshua and Wilder are high among the general public.

Two heavyweights, known for knocking people out, both with the ability to market the fight in English, in an actual meaningful fight is a far bigger event than you seem willing to acknowledge, for whatever reason.

Not sure why you've got your head in the sand.

The fight won't be in America. Nobody knows Joshua. Wilder is willing to go to the UK, but there must be stringent blood testing. Now if Joshua decided to gain some balls and come to America, I'd give him props.

You don't follow the money trail on these fights do you? The live gate for AJ/Vlad was between 9 - 10 million. The average ticket price was near $100.

A Vegas live gate destroys that. They'd do between 20 - 40 million easy at the live gate in Vegas. But the PPV revenue is the problem with a US fight. Which is why i think it happens in the UK. But a rematch would definitely be in the US if Wilder won. They'd break the bank then.

Pause for a moment.

If the gate in Las Vegas can likely do double what the gate at Wembley was, and the UK has already shown that they will pay for big US fights on Box Office (Floyd's fights on Sky Box Office have done over a million homes), the big unknown is what the US TV money would look like.

No way this fight makes more in America. Neither is a draw in America. Is Vegas going to put up 10+ mil to get the fight, then there'll be all the lost revenue from UK PPV to take in to account. Keep dreaming.

This fight makes way more money in America. Joshua putting 90k in the seats and getting only 10 mil gate.

In Vegas you get site fee, 20k will get a 10 mil gate. PPV in the U.S. and PPV in the UK. If the fight is in the UK it's not gonna be PPV here. Everybody knows Vegas fights make the most money.

Like Ward-Kovalev did. You had Americas P4P #1 fighter and they didn't show up. America cares even less about Deontay Wilder and Joshua than they did Ward.

stay in school bro

believe it or not this fight would make more money in america than the uk. 90k seats at wembley at say $100 each is only $9m gate money whereas vegas could charge at least a grand per seat so 20k seats at $1k a piece is $20m just off tickets. then you got ppv sales if this fight were in vegas more people in the UK/US would have to buy the ppv since most of the casuals wouldn't be able to travel/book hotels/buy tickets to see the fight live. just depends if vegas thinks this fight can put up the hype like floyd/canelo/pac past fights have.

Lol first thing first YOU probably never attended a fight in UK or USA
There's $100 $200 $500 $10 000 tix prices in both countries
No way 90 000 ppl pay only $100
2nd thing
No promoter will charge $1000 a tix for a Wilder vs Joshua match up when two bigger names May/Pac didn't even get that
90 000 ppl over 20 000 ppl wins everytime

watch youtube Hearn has mention 4 million several times it can't be bogus
