Comments Thread For: Joshua To Wilder: Stop Whining, Take Deal We're About To Offer

[Sid-Knee]

imo the one wilder's camp was saying is better imo....

he gets the short end and if he wins etc on rematch AJ takes the short end....

its literally a win win for both so I dont see why AJ's camp wouldn't even budge for that....oh wait hearn...

Did Floyd ever make such a contract that if he were to be beaten he'd give most of the money to the opponent in the rematch?

[factsarenice]

he will get his 40% and he will also get knocked spark out .....he deserves no more than 40% because he has one belt and joshua brings 10x times the amount of tickets than wilder..and then its welcome to the lions den

I believe that's the bid, 60-40

The Vegas earnings are potential and neither fighter has either the US profile or prior history for them to be anything more than that. Vegas would be a big risk.

The London earnings are as close to guaranteed as you can get in the boxing world.

Do you know when klitchcko and joshua boxed at wembley....yiu couldnt get a seat under £350 and ringside seats were £2500 a piece.....london will be huge and double the prices and people would still pay for it.
Fighting in vegas is a risk on two fronts...one is wilder and joshua are not household names and relatively unknown over there and secondly joshua will not want to see a repeat of a vegas stitchup or a ref giving wilder a helping hand to recover.
Joshua will want this fight over here its that simple

Well parker got 33% and this fight will sell alot more.....it will be massive in the uk maybe even 2.5 million buys plus wembley stadium will be 90k and sold out in 2 hours ...plus i am sure wilder will get 350k buys in the states.......this fight is the biggest fight you can make at the moment but most of the revenue will be brought in by AJ.....dummy Mcnulty things joshua is going to give up home advantage just because has las vegas has a bigger live gate...i am sure angka if your joshua you would do exactly the same with home soil at wembley

AJ isn't doing no 2.5 mil Sky PPV buys. The biggest PPV there is still May/Mac. Quit trying to act like AJ is selling millions of PPVs in the UK.

No, the only time Floyd took less was when he fought Oscar and he hated him for that.

[Sid-Knee]

yea because the amount of tickets you sell determine whether you are a good fighter or not

It doesn't determine if you're a good or not, but it does determine how much money you should get.

Name me 1 American fighter in history that paid ridiculous money to an opponent that didn't deserve it?

[Randall Cunning]

Joshua has now said his offer includes rematch clauses for both fighters.

Agreed, Joshua will insist upon the fight in England and he'll either get it or move on. Not too much anyone can do about that because he's still the man that beat the man, he's the draw.

No, the only time Floyd took less was when he fought Oscar and he hated him for that.

And so he should. Oscar was a PPV fighter that made millions whereas Floyd wasn't anywhere near close to that.

joshua done 1.9 million against klitchcko last year and sold 2 mill against parker.......its not 80 dollars gumbo its a more reasonable £30 dollars so speak when you know what your talking about.....
