    Wrong. The price in the UK is around $27. Which means they would have to sell 400k. Two fighters that can't even draw 1 mil on showtime isn't selling 400k PPV. Ward and Kovalev were more popular and didn't do half that.
    Ward and Kovalev are not more popular than Wilder. Ward is as boring as watching paint dry in and out of the ring, and Kovalev can’t speak English. Wilder can give great quotes and interviews, plus he has the knockout reals that would play well on commercials.

      They were getting better ratings than Wilder on sub channels like HBO and Showtime.

      Their last fights in America before fighting.

      Kovalev-Pascal 2 = Average 1.179 mil
      Ward-Barrera = Average 1.064 mil
      Wilder Stiverne 2 = Average 824k

        You continue to advocate that AJ shouldn't fight Wilder because of financial reason but you really don't want the fight.

        You continue to make a clown out of yourself. Look already how many posts in this thread you have defending your opinion

          On the contrary the people defending Wilders ridiculous demands don't want the fight. They know Joshua won't give him that because it's insane. If Wilder ****suckers called him out instead of sucking him off maybe he'd be pressured to actually take the fight.

          Being ******ed in numbers doesn't make you right. Ask the pac turds.

            I never defended Wilder's demands. Find a post that I ever had. Fact is that more than likely he will fight Parker next and if Tyson is able to walk into the ring he is next. Don't be a cheerleader and justify what is happening when actually Wilder IS NOT in AJ's immediate future. God forbid if Bellow keeps winning and they will pick him over Wilder.

            Never seen a fan that don't want his fighter in a competitive prime match and rather defend him that it makes no financial sense to meet the other guy in the ring

              Of course he isn't in immediate plans when he's asking for ****ing 50%.


              Oh really? Aren't the Wilder fans doing that by defending Wilders demands?

                Wilder should take the 35/40 split and tell Hearn to **** himself and that he will take all the US PPV revenue while AJ takes the Sky PPV revenue. I guarantee you Hearn will never accept that. The US PPV money will be more than the UK. AJ might sell PPVs in the UK but he hasn't sold any in the US and never will until he fights Wilder. Wilder is a bigger fight than the Parker fight solely because Wilder brings more to the table. Parker is only bringing a belt while Wilder brings in the US market with its PPV revenue. For you bringing up how Floyd gave Maidana 3-5 mil for the fight, Maidana got all money for the TV rights in Argentina.

                  So far the people defending Wilder are also attacking Joshua over a split. The people defending Joshua are also attacking Wilder over a split. You really cannot make it up. If money stops this fight from happening then bother fighters need to take a share of the blame, the market would decide who gets what, and the market would decide who actually wants the fight and the one that doesn’t.

                    Another tard. How is it a 35/40 split if he's taking the US revenue.

                    Joshua keeping the UK and Wilder keeping the US, Hearn would bite his hand off. Wilder gets 800k viewers on showtime, Joshua less. They aren't selling **** in the US.

                      The should be getting more ratings especially when HBO has 30% more suscribers. Would Hearn agree to Wilder taking all the US PPV money while they take all the UK money?
