    What does Floyd have to do with Wilder??

    Wilder has never sold a single PPV in the US so you can talk about US PPV money all you want but it’s irrelevant because Wilder is not a PPV fighter.

    If Wilder was a US PPV fighter make no mistake about it Hearn and AJ would be jumping at the chance to face him the US. You have guys in here bragging about 900k views on showtime as a statement of his pulling power.

    The money for this fight is in the UK as of 2018, hence why Wilder will not dictate terms or get anything close to 50-50.

    It’s not hard to understand but you Americans are hell bent on displaying your bias/******ity.

          10.5 million people watched it live on a German satellite channel. That alone is about 10x as many viewers as Wilder gets on Showtime.
          Yep Wlad frequently sold out 50,000 seat stadiums against guys no one thought could beat him. He was actually a cash cow himself.

            Typical dumb fat yank thinking America is the world.

            No, typical ****** British turd thinking England is the whole world.

            AJ aint done jack shyt outside his own country but you got him a worldwide star.

            And the only evidence you have of that is the easily manipulated and grossly inaccurate Google trends.

            You are a disgraceful fanboy.

            I like both fighters, by the way.

            But Hearn is protecting AJ.

                Completely agree.

                AJ has no US numbers either.

                So, why is AJ an A-side in a Vegas fight?

                The answer is, he isn't.

                The answer is, nobody is.

                50/50 fight.

                  Really?

                  This is the same thing that had Golovkin more popular worldwide than Canelo this past January, right?



                  Meanwhile, after this google data, G did a PPV of about 130K buys while Canelo sold a million.

                  Google trends is garbage.

                  Thanks for proving my point.
                  Golovkin is more popular than Canelo worldwide. Of that there is no doubt. He is probably more popular than Canelo even in Mexico. Mexican Americans are Canelo's fan base.

                    YOU supposed to be making the case for Wilder getting 50/50. You've shown nothing to make a case.

                    Wilders highest purse is 1.5 mil. He isn't a draw.

                      50/50 in America sure. 95/5 in the UK. I'm sure Joshua and Hearn will jump at that split.
