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.

Ok, this actually makes sense. You're obviously biased against Wilder for some reason.

You're right. This isn't charity so why would they overpay Parker? Just so they can underpay Wilder in the future?

Now they've set the precedent for Wilder to say, I'm not taking anything less than Parker because I'm the bigger name. If you're right and they're being generous to Parker. They're going to have even more generous to Wilder.

Great business strategy...

its simple....all the A-side has to do is be willing to make the fight and make a reasonable offer

when you ever seen floyd, oscar, manny, canelo etc ever have a problem locking a fight down? theres a line out there(or was) to fight these guys.....its best money of your life and the chance to knock off a star.....nobody has a problem making a fight if you are the big a-side superstar

so its on the supposed big a-side superstar......he has to be willing and make a reasonable offer....i think we all know he is/has done neither

B side rules only apply to non American fighters.

Over paying 67-33 is one thing - but overpaying 50-50 is another thing. Nobody disagrees that Wilder will at least get what Parker gets - not sure what your fking point is?

Beyonce will probably even get 40% - it'll be less than 30% after Haymon takes his cut - but Beyonce will get Jeff Lacy'd and then go back to the Barclays Center and Tuscaloosa fighting fat bums in front of 8,000 again as soon as that coach turns back into a pumpkin.

Floyd paid guys like Maidana etc under 5 mil flat fee. So did Pacquiao. DLH paid Mayweather something like 25% for the biggest fight in history.

Wilder wants 50%. HUGE ****ING DIFFERENCE.

robbie robbie robbie

why do you keep insisting that wilder will not move from the 50 percent he floated out there ?

what was hearns final offer? what did he present wilder as an actual confirmed offer? can u tell me?

weve been over this robbie....wilder isnt going to come out and tell you the lowest percentage hes willing to take....its simple negotiation tactics...

what was the confirmed offer that hearn made? can hearn and the other side both confirm this offer was made? i doubt it.....because one hasnt been made

you know im right....all of those guys ive mentioned never had a hard time making a fight......all you have to do is be willing to make an offer...and make it reasonable......but hearn has done neither.....he hasnt even made an offer yet because he doesnt even want the fight right now

You've just been talking like the A side just makes an offer and the B side will accept. So what's all this negotiating **** about?


When the B side doesn't want the fight he makes ridiculous demands. "50/50 or no fight" is a demand not negotiating.

You're actually calling him bias because he's criticizing the fighter on the side that is pricing itself out of a fight that everyone wants to see?

So if GGG asked for 50/50 against Canelo and we criticized GGG - you'd call us bias against GGG too I suppose
