Comments Thread For: Wilder Rejects Claim He's Pricing Himself Out For Joshua Bout

Ok, now you lost me. If he don't deserve it then why are they giving it to him. You're telling me Wilder is not a bigger name than Parker?

I'm telling you that Joshua is overpaying Parker he doesn't deserve 30+ percent and neither does Wilder. Parker is getting it because Joshua is being generous and Wilder will too if it happens.

Make the math for the total purse. Don't spin it

We don't know what the total purse was for Joshua.

I do blame Hearn. I`m done . See ya midget **** or should I say midget brain ? I will go with both.

See you ******. After embarrassing yourself you run away.

Americans don't buy PPVs anymore. 1 million buys is considered a success in the US now. Apart from the Floyd vs McGregor freak show that is. Do you think this fight does 1 million over there?

1 mil was always considered a success, then & now.

You're not answering the question. Is Wilder a bigger name than Parker?

Well D.Wilder is better than parker so let AJ be generous again & make this fight happen, 60/40. LOL

The funny thing i kept reading is "The old man Wlad Klit" was 40 or 41 years old coming off 15 months lay off when Joshua fought him.

That old man was 32 years old when Wilder turned pro, nine years later he never fought him because he was never ready, Joshua who turned pro in 2013 and with few fights has fought better opponents that the 40 odd fights that Wilder has been in.

He already too a risk by fighting that old man even though he had less experience than Wlad/Fury or Wilder going into the fight. So to shamelessly claimed AJ fought an old man whilst ignoring the fact that in 9 years as a pro Wilder didn't fight that old man makes it all laughable.

There are a lot of Beyonce fan boys who seem to not realize that Hearn is a PROMOTER and Haymon is a MANAGER.

Haymon is getting a huge back end cut of Beyonce's paycheck, so obviously Haymon is the one behind the 50/50 demand. Beyonce was ready to get on his knees and suck a Russian cack for $4.5 mil and let the guy do steroids and everything - that's how desperate Beyonce is to fight washed up 37 year old bums - sound like a familiar description to the same guy he's fighting now?

There is 0 chance this fight happens in the US... the fight will be televised from the UK at a friendly-US PPV buy time - the UFC has already established how to do it... You think Hearn would risk a first-timer on PPV and risk staging the fight on a whim and a chance that Wilder can sell the fight in the US?

Get ready for Calzaghe vs Jeff Lacy - the heavyweight version in the UK, Biotches.

I have no time for you trying to spin it. Saying Wilder deserves more than Parker means nothing because Parker is being overpaid.


That's like a charity demanding money because you donated to another charity.

No one cares. Go away. Stop ruining boxing. Leave to sport to the boxers who actually want to be great and forge real legacies, rather than waiting in the weeds for the perfect time to try to pick off one or two good but not great wins and then, if you can even win those fights, brag and exaggerate them over and over again until you brainwash enough idiots into thinking you're great that you can halfway manufacture a "great" legacy for yourself, so that you can rake in some money from the most gullible people out there, which is really what you care about much more in the first place, all while denying shots at the prominent spot in your division that was gifted to you because of politics, not merit, to the boxers who actually deserve it and are actually willing to fight the best consistently which is what true greatness in boxing requires.

Edit: something about my grammar and sentence structure in this post reminds me of Deontay Wilder's technique, punch selection, and rhythm in the ring. Huh.
