Comments Thread For: Joshua Promoter: Wilder Can't Be Delusional With 50-50 Demand

[Ray*]

Why is Hearn talking about this fight? AJ has Parker and then Pedvetkin, but it looked like Fury would be in front of Wilder hence all this crap from Hearn, no way would Wilder get 50%, he knows it, we all knows it. If they get to that point and Wilder really wants 50% then I would call it a clear duck by Wilder.

Wow! Hearn is lying, he's never even "attempted" negotiations with Team Wilder. He said they would fight Wilder later on in 2018. He's appealing to the gung ho happy Joshua fans that are looking for excuses at every opportunity for why Wilder isnt in the ring with their idol! Let the LIES & EXCUSES begin and lets all watch the AJ worshippers lap it up like Lucozade!

It's kinda the same thing with Mayweather pacquiao, pacquiao had to realize that he was selling only one third of the sells that Mayweather was making and he had to bend to make the fight happen, .. Joshua is filling up stadiums in the UK ,Wilder cannot fill up a 15,000 seat ballroom in his own home state.

It's been widely documented and confirmed that Hearn met up with DiBella when he was in NY for the Jacobs fight to discuss the Wilder fight.

Beyond that this whole split conversation is boring considering the absolute earliest this fight can happen is in the summer.

WBC vs WBA Champion sounds like 50/50 is fair.

Yes. Fights between champions should always be 50-50!

Wilder clearly ducking aj now what a hill billy haha

As a boxing fan we just wanna see a fight but it’s also business and 50-50 doesnt make much business for sense for team Joshua.

Nobody knows or gives a *** about Wilder even in America while Joshua seats 90,000 fans.

Wilder and co are probably holding out for more money though. It’s a simple negotiating tactic.

But if Wilder really insists on 50-50, it’s a duck.

Who cares, just make the fight. 55-45 or whatever. Hearn had no intention on making this fight now, so he's lying on what killed the fight.
Negotiate in private so the real fans can debate with other real fans and not these accountants on the internet. Boxing is the only sport where the fans argue about the purses for the match. I don't care about the split or how many fans you can fill in your country. I care about the fight, in the ring.

Hearn never said it killed the fight because the fight is Not happening now
If it happens next
50/50 wil then kill the fight
