    The fact is that they overpaid a bum that happens to get a title by fortunate circumstances. There was no need to buy that belt at that price when AJ already had a solid building star power.

    It takes two to tango and it is the most money both fighters are going to make. If we are talking about money this is a fair to bring Martin up

        lol, why do you guys sound as if you don't want one of the best fights in boxing to happen? I dont care what split they agree on tbh. The fight needs to happen ASAP. Two prime, powerful Heavys, US vs. UK seriously this will be the biggest heavyweight fight in sometime where people will actually tune in and care. Meanwhile, everyone is bickering over numbers like either one of these guys are Floyd or Pac. They are both gonna get career high paydays. Make it happen.

              Yeah we as FANS have the right to say what financial rewards FIGHTERS deserve and don't

              We have the right to tell a fighter who risks his life that he doesn't deserve a certain slice of the bread

              If you're not signing the checks why are you even discussing monetary ish?!?...I don't care who gets what...I just care about seeing the fight

              Let Uncle Al and Cousin Eddie handle the paperwork

                give wilder 30% max if joshua wins the next fight but joshua will probably end up over paying for him or else face the usual duck stuff, wilder demanding 50% is just a total joke, get lost

                if wilder doesnt go close to 30% id tell him to go **** off

                  Wilder was asking for 50/50 but you have to start high to negotiate. There is already talks for 40%. There is so much money for this fight that it will get made. I don't understand why the AJ fans don't want Wilder making any money but will excuse anybody else.

                  We don't know what goes on in the real negotiations anyway.

                    60 40 is fine. wilder's going to generate a lot of revenue. might even be promoted as a PPV in the US. only problem is timing, the fight will probably be in the UK.

                    rematch might go to vegas if the fight is good.


                    brits need to sack up and stop pretending they're accounts. 60%40 has gotten a lot of big fights signed. joshua will make a career high payday, win or lose. with a bullet. and you still won't see a dime of it what are you afraid of?

                      they're afraid of the alabama soul pole. they know it, too. saving face with this accountant crap. this fight is giant. FFS he's an american HW with knockout power. people will eat it up if they promote this fight on mainstream media. and f#cking al haymon is a genius with deep pockets when it comes to investing in and promoting stars.
