Comments Thread For: Wilder Would Accept 40% - If Joshua Gets The Same in Rematch

[Butch.McRae]

He's not getting 40%, no chance, and this is exactly what I have been saying the whole time. Joshua is 10x bigger than Wilder, and if he beats Parker will have 3 belts, 4 with IBO, Wilder is in dreamland if he thinks he is getting 40% of the entire revenue.

He'll get no less than 37% (more likely 40%) and you all will go on complaining like you're losing money because Wilder got paid lol

It's kind of weird

[Ake-Dawg]

and 30% of of a Joshua fight makes wilder atleast 5x more than he's ever made or can make against anyone else. You keep trying to use Joshua pay as reasoning, how about use Wilders. Whatever Joshua offers him will be more than he's ever made.

You're right. But you don't get to just look at one side.

This fight must happen. Fans should not be haggling over money. Fans shouldn't be developing arguments for why the fight didn't happen before the fight "doesnt" happen.

It's clear that Wilder obviously wants to fight AJ but AJ does not want to fight Wilder. Money is not the issue. Hearn should just come out and admit it; Anthony Joshua did. However, he'll fight Tyson Fury tomorrow because he perceives him less of a threat than Deontay Wilder.

Do you mean to tell me there’s even 10 UK fans who don’t know who Deontay Wilder is ? UK is a boxing hotbed. They are well aware of who the American undefeated heavyweight champion who has knocked out all of his opponents is.

Most Joshua’s fans are casual and therefore Ppv base also. The majority, probably 75%, wouldn’t have seen wilder fight ever. By fighting whyte he significantly increases chance of probably adding 200K minimum; potentially upto 500k extra viewers in the uk.

Lol you're kidding right? Maidana or Mosley?

Come on now. You gotta do better than that lol It's not remotely close. Mayweather's drawing power (earning power was miles beyond where AJ is right now) and neither Maidana or Mosley brought anything to the table that was critical for Floyd career.

This is more like Floyd v. Oscar. Where Oscar got $50 million for that fight while Floyd got $25 million, despite Floyd not having a real PPV track record.

If AJ beats Wilder, his US PPV potential takes off. There's value in that. He goes from a $20 million fighter, to a $30 or $40 million guy with that win.

There's a real reward on the other end. Floyd wasn't dealing with the same type of risk/reward analysis.

Oh so you think Wilder should take 33% like Mayweather did. Mayweather didn't ask for the ridiculous rematch stipulation either. You just killed your own argument for Wilder getting 40%.

But you know I didn't lol I see your posts regularly. You try to be careful with what you say. I understand the loyalty. But I think you know (just like I do) that the split will be closer to 40% than 33% b/c wilder will get more than Parker. Its not realy debateble. I also noticed that you have not once said that split won't happen lol you just keep saying what "should" happen lol very subtle play

[SAINTSTEVE]

It's pointless for us to posit hypothetical percentages. The fight is going to happen after their warmup bouts Joshua vs Miller, and Wilder vs TBA. Everything I say comes true see my sig.

I know for a FACT Wilder doesn't get this offer he wants. Not a chance in hell with that ridiculous rematch stipulation.

All i'm saying is Wilder doesn't deserve or should expect 40%. If Joshua decides to give him it good for Wilder. If he doesn't then Wilder needs to be more realistic and he needs to drop that ****** rematch stipulation altogether.

I actually think he gets it because of the interest in getting that vegas money. Hearn has brought it up so much, I think he's locked in on chasing those Mayweather type checks.

I mean the UK HW bench is very deep with guys like Dubois, Joyce, Fury, maybe even Haye.

Eddie's going to call his shot on a Vegas fight at some point. Why not with Wilder? I don't think the first fight happens outside of the UK, so a rematch wouldn't be crazy.

Some whoppers in this thread fair play..... How about stfu until Parker is seen too

Arguing back and forth like a bunch of mincers

Embarrassing

Yeah there counting their money a Lil too soon. I give Parker a 40% of winning. It wouldn't shock me at all if Parker wins...
