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

[SpeedForce]

Look at Windmill fangirl crying and begging for a payday for his daddy

lol First of all, I could careless what happens to Wilder. I didn't even know people called him windmill, but it makes sense since he mostly just swings for the fences. He basically talks a little too much for my liking and he really hasn't proved anything to me yet. lol But I think he is way better than Joshua. Look we all know Joshua has more draw money-wise because he got the big fights and a better promoter. If Wilder had a better promoter he would've got that Klitschko fight. But he's still willing to go to the UK to fight Joshua on his home court and other than Klitschko, they pretty much have the same resume. Both with a decent amount of KO's. And as a boxing fan, I want to see this **** happen and to not accept 50/50 when you both have the belt and same resume. In America, we call that a "***** move". Which kind of tells me he's scared and he should be.

Couldn't have said it better myself. If wilder actually beats Ortiz, which I doubt then 65/35 would be OK but no higher cause remember you'll have 3 belts against one. No way in hell the guy with one belt and is the lesser draw gets a 50/50 split.

You're wrong. Wilder will get more than 35%. Parker got almost 35% and Wilder is a much bigger star than Parker, has a much more valuable belt than Parker, and opens up a much more lucrative market than Parker. Wilder will get 40%

No way in hell the guy with one belt and is the lesser draw gets a 50/50 split.

Correct. It'll be a 60/40 split.

Most boxing fans are so dumb, they might fall for what Hearn said.

Hearn and Joshua act like Wilder would steal their money when he wants a 50/50 split. The money is generated by the fight. Two fighters in the ring, should always be 50/50.

Promoters not only stealing their own fighter's money but also the money of the opponents. **** them, go to hell, get a real job.


Or just say "I don't want AJ to fight him" and make a rematch with Whyte or fight Browne and steal their money because they have to agree. But with several of those fights Joshua makes less money on his terms than with one 50/50 split with Wilder.

What absolute trash, ‘two fighters in the ring should always be 50/50’ -
So Berto vs Mayweather should have been $17.5m each??! So Berto would have got 17x his previous career high and brought pretty much zero marketability to the fight.

Unless, you have two fighters with the same amount of paying fans, like GGG vs Canelo, there is an A and B side. The A side can selltickets 3x over and pulls in PPV against anyone. The B Side would love the fans but doesn’t have them yet so takes a hair cut on the dollars to get the exposure and usually is the challenger.

That's brainwashed bull****, A side and B side really is only an excuse to make demands.

Nobody would pay for Mayweather shadowboxing.

Exactly wilder is ducking AJ with his demands

Parker demanded 50/50 and the fight was still made.

Wilder isn't ducking. He's posturing. When Hearn wants to make the fight, it'll happen at 60/40.

[Straightener]

You think Joshua is on Floyd's level?

He’s the money man in the division

Making 10times what the other champs are making

You know what I’m saying though .... pac vs floyd everyone saying pac is pricing himself out etc when wilder asks for half share it’s cool and aj is ducking

[Akutalee]

You’re right he should just fight for 40%.. by saying 50 or no fight is rubbish
