Why is Wilder's team not making any offer to Joshua?

[Boksfan]

Wilder is a bigger fight, so he brings MORE money,
he also brings the US market, bigger market = MORE money,
he also offers a chance at holding ALL belts at once = More money

So he brings in more money than Parker so he deserves more money, which makes AJ more money.

I still dont understand AJ's team wanting someone to beat Wilder first, before AJ attempts to be the 1st one, if someone does, it makes their fight go away.

Parker has more fans than Wilder, FACTS.

Just saying instead of whining and crying, why isn't Wilder's team, again, which includes Haymon backed by Showtime making the first move?
Remember when Brook was mandatory to Porter's belt, Hearn complied and Brook accepted $250K for the fight.
Not exactly similar, but in this case Wilder and Haymon have as much right as Hearn to make offers.
Where is Showtime in all of this?
Why is Espinoza dependent on UK promoters?
He's got Wilder, who they claim is a superstar in the US.
So why not offer AJ to come to the US for the unification fight?
Seems they're not even crunching numbers to arrive at an offer they can send to Hearn/AJ.
They're essentially beggars, yet they want 50/50.
Kills me.

Excellent post. They're acting like small fry begging for a payday when they have the WBC champion.

By team I mean the entire group that makes fights possible, which includes Haymon, Espinoza, under PBC/Showtime banners.
If Wilder's camp believes the fight with Joshua will be huge in the US, what are they doing to make it happen?
Why does it have to be only Hearn that does the offering?
Wilder got the WBC title, it's not like he's a mere mandatory to AJ.
Any mature explanation to this strange situation?

It's rude to start negotiations before a guy even wins. If Hearn really wants Wilder they will sit down and talk if Joshua wins. That's why they haven't made an offer. Joshua hasn't made any offers either. And Wilder doesn't negotiate fights.

[Raggamuffin]

Haymon backs Wilder. Haymon got Floyd and Pac their pay day and he will get Joshua and Wilder theirs.

Wrong. It's reported inbetween 30 and 35%, Hearn also said that too.

Could you do the math? 13 of 33 is a little more than 40% no matter how you look at it

I don't need to do any maths Parkers own promoter confirmed it.

"It's between 30 and 35-ish percent for the Parker side," Higgins said. "I'll leave it at that for now, but it's somewhere close to the middle of that. Maybe after Eddie and I talk about it, we will make the figure public."
