Eddie Hearn "30% For Joseph Parker Will Earn Him Record Highest £15Million"

[Redd Foxx]

30% + a hand in the extras seems fair, IMO. That's if Hearn puts this on in the UK.

[N/A]

That's more than reasonable.. So is team Parker pricing themselves out by wanting 5% more.

AJ has two world title belts. Each of those organizations do a 75/25 split for mandatories. Meaning a Pulev or an Oquendo would be entitled to 25%.

So an undefeated world champion demanding 35% is not unreasonable, but there's no way Hearn will give in. They'll try to hard line at 35, Hearn will hard line at 30, and hopefully the two sides can compromise at 32.5 or 33.

Mandatories only get 25% of the purse split. Purse never includes PPV revenue but Parker is getting PPV income.

Boxing is a business so the percentage shouldn't be looked into too much.. It's the gurentee that's more important. The purse can be what every they deem it to be (highest bid placed in purse bid).

For example DLH offered GGG a flat rate $15mil but GGG declined.. When the fight was made official GGG got 3mil and Canelo got 5mil gurenteed purse.. They both made much more but as with any business, they fiddled numbers (way around tax) same reason why Steve Jobs salary at Apple was $1.. Yes $1 dollar a year.

Mandatories only get 25% of the purse split. Purse never includes PPV revenue but Parker is getting PPV income.

WBA & IBF mandatories get 25% of the purse bid. Any registered promoter in good standing can bid and their bids would be based on what they believe the fight would generate in the marketplace, including PPV.

When Holyfield was the mandatory, his 25% was worth over $8 million.

That $8 million ended up being worth far more than 25% of overall revenue, including PPV, as the promoter of the fight lost millions of dollars.

Eddie Hearn in his latest interview has confirmed he will not give Joseph Parker the 35% he has demanded.

But he confirmed that they will not undervalue Parker with a split as low as 25% (Meaning he will meet them in the middle). He confirmed the amount he has offered will ensure Parker makes a MASSIVE 8 figure income in excess of £15Million ($20mil American Dollars or $29mil New Zealand Dollars) if they were to fight in March next year.

That's more than reasonable.. So is team Parker pricing themselves out by wanting 5% more.

I hope they offer Wilder more than that when they fight

[club fighter]

If Parker is so confident he'd KO AJ then he should take the fight for peanuts and reap the rewards when he becomes champ................

........Oh shyt!!, I just got swept up in some Kiwi delusional crap, my bad.

I don't know they should, 20mil for Wilder is also his record highest. Pacquiao and Mayweather never gave thier opponents that's much.

Their opponents never were WBC Heavyweight Champion

[BostonGuy]

Parker is gonna get $20 million to fight Joshua? I just don't believe that...

[PensionKiller]

I know UK tv revenue is really hight but I dont see how they can guarantee a relatively unknown guy like Parker 20 US millions!

That's like prime Pacquiao guaranteed money.

TV rights around the World. AJ is a bigger star than people think
