Comments Thread For: Hearn: Tyson Fury Asked For 60-40 Split, in His Favor, For Joshua

[JRB123]

who is DW's promoter to put together such a fight anyways, all DW has is an 'advisor'

Lou DiBella, who talks about as much as Wilder does right now.

By the way, has he or Finkel showed where they contacted Hearn about a Joshua fight before last month yet?

There’s a lot of ‘knowledge’ being thrown about regarding the top heavyweights but the only people with a resume are Tyson and AJ. Hopefully they find a way to get all 4 to fight in a royal rumble so we know the true champ. I reckon all 4 have a shot at knocking any of the others out. Maybe super series league between them?

It's called "negotiating" - you never start with the offer you're going to settle for

Lie

Hearn is full of it , in the end it will be 55-45 % favor of AJ .. If Fury wins then it will be 60 -40 for TF . Unless AJ catch's Fury with a good shot I see him out boxing Anthony first 6 rounds then he gets desperate goes for KO and if doesn't get it land a big punch gasses out gets Kod !!! Preach , facts not fiction !!! BoooYaaa

but the way he put it was fuggin ridiculous lol

if that's a normal negotiation then why is Hearn talking about it like it isn't? I know he's a grade A knob and all that but I can't remember the last time I heard an opening offer like that. I'm inclined to believe Tyson Fury is trolling Hearn and the rest of us for his own amusement and knows those fights will be made in time regardless of the negotiations taking place BEFORE he's even made a comeback

[STREET CLEANER]

What is Robbie Barret's opinion in this negotiation?

[thack]

Hearn is so used to bullying negotiations it's nice to see the shoe on the other foot.If Fury can shed the weight and look good then Hearn will really be on the back foot.

[Flash13]

Fury deserves more than wilder that much is certain.

[PunchyPotorff]

Like a few others have said, Hearn likely realizes this is just an opening offer. Even as swollen as Fury's head is sometimes, I doubt he really expects to get that. He'll settle for 40% vs Joshua at the end of the day.

[Pac=Duran]

with those type of demands...apparently he's not off the coke yet

Fury's just making it clear that he isn't going to get taken for a ***** and that it's gonna be really near to 50/50 split.

People are acting like it was Joshua that whipped Wlad first. Fury went to Wlads home turf and beat him with ease. I think i had it a near shut out like 11-1 or 10-2. Tyson had Wlad ready to go in the final rounds too.

It needs to be a 50/50 fight.
