Comments Thread For: Team Wilder Plan Counter To $12.5 Million Flat Fee For Joshua

That's the problem you get when you wait for an offer instead of making it yourself. You immediately lose the position in the driving seat. I can understand AJ if he wants to gain more experience before fighting Wilder, this $12mil offer and the manner in which it was presented was rather insulting, but, again, its what you get when you take a passive stance like Wilder. He only screams he wants the fight without doing anything tangible to actually make it happen. If, however, they both have a rematch clause with a pre-determined split depending on who loses, Wilder's position may not be that bad actually. AJ's is so much better in any event, but he also brings massive popularity (at least in EU) and 4 belts. Wilder brings a belt. And the fact that his grandmother might recognize him on the street.

They only have 30 days to make the fight, probably way less given they have to negotiate the other one say 15 days each some of which are already used up.

ok so you agree then why are they giving Wilder 48 hrs ?? Tell me any other of this magnitude that was done in 48 hrs ?

You learn every day son.

I’m not your son let’s get that straight

Besides I doubt that a man that digitally sucks AJs c.ock non-stop on a boxing forum could be a father to anyone

Idolizing an athlete and another man may be something your Dad did and that’s why you think it’s cool but It’s an embarrassment to act that way

But thanks again for letting me know how negotiations work

Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy took down some criminals in that amount of time

If this is true (IF) is sucks, why don't they just offer the 40%?? It seems fair!! Just get the fight done!

Parker also got his biggest payday by a mile vs Joshua. And he got more than Wilder has been offered which says a lot about Hearn's mindset.

He's saying "we can grow this fight bigger so I'm going to offer sh^t mney", but its also saying "we don't want this fight right now (2018) so I'm going to offer sh^t money" cuz from how things are likely going to start getting called in Joshua will have mandatory's galore that'll keep Joshua vs Wilder from happening til 2020 or potne

Nope, Wilder is set to make more than Parker. And in what world is $12.5 million **** money? It makes no sense at all. Plus Wilder has the rematch on his side, his venue, his country with a 50-50 negotiation, regardless of AJ's results in this fight....so even if AJ wins a rematch would still be on Wilder's terms.

Like I said, if the reports are true than that is amazing for Wilder, a guy who is currently nobody in the division. If he is so confident of wining, he stands to make a lot more, in terms of money and legacy than he stands to lose. This fight could actually put him on the map.

This is the dumb **** that boxing clever just put up.

"Wilder (49-0, 39 KOs)*survived a life and death seventh round to score a knockout victory over undefeated Cuban contender Luis Ortiz in the tenth round at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. Ortiz was knocked down three times in the contest."

He is 40-0 with 39 K.O.'s....and to say life & death? You was just HOPING it was life & death. Smh

yeah but that wasn’t real and neither is this .

Nope, Wilder is set to make more than Parker.

How much did Parker make? I heard something like $15M/US or something like that.

And in what world is $12.5 million **** money? It makes no sense at all.

Dude quit making broke guy arguments. "If I got a $30M thing why WOULDN'T I SELL IT for $12.5M.....$12.5M is a lot of money".

Well no sh^t $12.5M is a lot of money. Who's debating that bs? Just you that I'm seeing. The point remains if someone is worth x +5 & you only offer me x then you are underpaying me. If thats happening here is the question & if Parker didn't get more than $12.5M then I may rest my argument cuz I was under the impression Parker made more money then this offer.

Plus Wilder has the rematch on his side, his venue, his country with a 50-50 negotiation, regardless of AJ's results in this fight....so even if AJ wins a rematch would still be on Wilder's terms.

If Hearn put into the contract what he & Joshua agreed to & what Wilder suggested with Wilder getting reverse cuts if he wins the first fight on the rematch then sh^t I'd have had that signed & being Fed-ex'd back to them as we speak. Idk if thats the case or not & I'd bet against it.

Like I said, if the reports are true than that is amazing for Wilder, a guy who is currently nobody in the division.

Okay this shows me you are HIGHLY biased here & maybe ******ed if you think the #2 guy in the division is a "nobody".

Only boxing fans got no clue quite on this level. Its embarrassing I gotta be considered the same thing to casuals as people like you who can't seem to be reasonable & unbiased about a legit topic of discussion.

If he is so confident of wining, he stands to make a lot more, in terms of money and legacy than he stands to lose. This fight could actually put him on the map.

EVERYONE at the Joshua & Wilder level should be confident of winning. Thats how they got there by thinking they were the best.

But most you mfers aren't competitive at nothing so don't understand that level of sureness in yourself thats proven you right so many times, but when two people like this meet one of them is gonna be wrong finally.

Maybe its Joshua, maybe its Wilder...I don't really give a f#ck I just wanna see the mfer fight not fanboy over either dude like you watching a Joshua fight:

[greeneye99]

Nah, the article said 100+ mil

But it's not a 100m fight more like 50m
