    Hearn didn’t offer him 10 million but he did say “I would write a cheque for 10 million tomorrow” which means 10 million is actually low hence he would pay that out without even negotiating. I’m guessing even with 35% split Wilder will makes in excess of 15mill.
    So, you're "sickened" by Wilder but you have no idea what the actual figure or percentage split is? You're as batty as that greasy haired Juggernaut.

    I don't think Wilder deserves 50/50 but I can't help but notice how many AJ fans around here act like children and bash him, even when they are clueless to the actual facts.
    Hearn is a promoter, meaning he's full of shyt. Going by his word is a wildly ignorant thing to do.

    I think of Aj in the same way that I do Golovkin, in that I like watching him fight, but man his fans are some of the biggest douchebags in boxing....

      Well the actual amount is still going to be his career highest by 5 times so that is not a peanut offer.. Wilders own words were he wants legacy not money. We can agree that he will get his career highest regardless of what % he gets.. why are people acting like he is getting a low offer? Its going to be career highest FFS.

      Also what “Sickens” me has nothing to do with the actual he may get.. he isn’t arguing that he’s being paid less money than he’s got before, he made it clear its 50-50 or nothing! He didn’t say he’ll be happy to negotiate on that.

      Like I said, if AJ said 80-20 or fight doesn’t happen, people (Including me) would have called him out on this BS.

      It sickens me that he is holding his belt hostage and won’t let us boxing fans see an undisputed unification unless he gets 50-50. He said that even if AJ gets parkers belt he can’t unify all the belts without Wilder so he needs to pay 50-50 or no fight!!. Do you not find that disgusting that he is acting like that and stopping fans from seeing a great fight?

      If AJ said something that sickening I would roast him. I made a thread and called out AJ on his BS when he said he may not fight Wilder until 2019 or 2020 (Look at my comment history) but let’s keep it real.. Wilder can do no wrong, his fan boys will ride him even if he ducks fights like he’s is doing now!

        Joshua doesn’t even have a voice to make claims

          Also if you think AJ fans are the biggest douchebags in boxing you should go see videos on youtube where Wilder fans are saying Wilder actually deserves 50-50 and that AJ is ducking him if he don't give it!!! lol.

          AJ fans aren't saying that Wilder should get peanuts.. We agree that he should make his career highest. If AJ said 80-20 you wouldn't see his fans making YouTube vids saying that's a good offer (Even though 20% would probably still be his career highest).

            except that split wouldn't be ridiculous at all given the economics of the fight.

            wilder makes 0 percent of revenue from ppv compared to joshua
            wilder sells 10 percent of tickets
            wilder makes 10 percent of the purse

            20 percent seems pretty fair if he said that. if joshua said wilder only gets 1 percent that would be a more apt comparison

Wilders just doing his job hyping up the possibility of a fight. Nobody is even talking about that scrub Parker.
              Joshua being generous to Parker makes 50-50 reasonable? Nope. That's trying to take advantage of the generosity. Neither Parker or Wilder deserve even 30%.

                Even though I disagree with 50/50, there's hardly any Wilder fans out there. AJ fans seem to bring that up a lot when it's convenient. Meanwhile, there's a mob of mindless AJ fans that simply parrot everything Hearn says. They really do act like douchebags, most of them. The guy won the 1 good fight he's ever had. Nothing to get this fanatical about yet.

                  80/20 is a joke, it sounds like they want to secure the extra money in case he gets blasted. One of them is going down and if old Wlad can drop that kid we know Wilder can hurt him too.

                    It is quite simple Wilder is going to get more than Parker both in terms on a percentage basis and raw number just because the pie will be bigger overall for that fight.

                    If Parker is getting 30% then like 40% is fair but they can haggle over the exact numbers but it will be between what Parker gets and less than 50% more than likely less than 45% unless the US business is huge much bigger than any here are figuring which also factors into how the split will go rather than just a set marker.

                      They'll eventually reach an agreement that everyone can live with.
