Everyone in boxing is talking about Hearn and Joshua's

[Raggamuffin]

lowball offer to Wilder.
This is why they're talking about the $12 mil offer.


For a fight that may very well generate $100 million dollars, they offered Wilder $12 mil, lmao. Now it's the first offer made by Hearn and Joshua so there will be a counter offer as I said earlier.

Floyd Mayweather Jr tried this B.S with Pac by offering $40 million talking about he would wire Pac $20 mil and he would get the rest after the fight or something like that lmao. Pac and Arum were smart to quickly reject that offer. How much did that fight generate? This kind of offer from Hearn and Joshua shows what they truly think of Wilder, the danger that he brings...and the reluctance to fight him.

They have never negotiated a big fight before and are rookies when talking with Haymon and whoever. Now it was their first offer, and Wilder will come with a counter offer.

All day we talked about this "flat fee" rate that you guys rejected that Floyd offered Pac...yet are saying that Wilder should take the offer and let Joshua make possibly $50 million or more. Are you ****en serious!

Again, let me be clear. A fight that can generate $100 dollars and they want to give Wilder only $12 mil...!!!???

Joshua has never made $50 million so who is helping generate that $100 mil? Wlad, Takam, Parker? What did those fights generate? So it's silly to attempt to say that Wilder should take the offer because he's never made more than this or that.

A fight that can generate $100 mil and they offer Wilder who is a champion in his own right and owns the most prestigious belt $12 mil.

I DON'T MIND OF JOSHUA MAKES MORE! But if Joshua is set to earn $50 million, why are you offering Wilder $12 mil?

My conclusion. I told you guys a long time ago about how they might lowball Wilder. But...I'll wait until they finish negotiations-I'm patient.

Right now Hearn and Joshua's offer is trash, and Haymon knows this. Many people have come out and when they heard Hearns offer and what the fight could generate and have ****ted on Hearn and Joshua basically saying that they don't want the fight.

My personal comments: Lets wait on Wilder's counter offer. Wilder is letting the man make more than him since the fight is in the UK, and they offer on $12 mil for a fight set to generate possibly $100 mil. Sad...

Wilder said he'll accept any offer aslong as its reversed in the rematch?
We going to justify him turning down 12 million fawkin' dollars? *Whoopi Goldberg voice* twelve million dollars!

Dan, do you understand what's going on here? Because from this answer, it seems like you don't...and I'm not trying to insult you. They did the projections and said that the fight could generate $100 mil. Wilder gets $12 mil. Who gets the rest of this money? And with Joshua getting huge TV revenue how can you even post that answer?

[Raggamuffin]

48 hours to give an answer. "The contract does not indicate where the fight will take place, when it will take place, or even whether it will be Joshua’s next fight".

$100m for the whole event doesn't mean that's $100m for the two fighters. You think Hearn or the venue or nobody else wants to get paid? It's 50% TOPS for the fighters most likely and if the fights do as poorly as Wilder fans say they do over there then it's probably closer to $80m so $40m split for them.

That crap was a certified joke, have you seen Joshua cuckholders running around the internet doing damage control like a stressed out publicist working for Charlie Sheen and Kanye West pre-mental meltdown?!

Embarrassing, i want to know if Team Joshua is willing to take that same 12% in a rematch if he loses!

That's the main question, if not and it's not in the draft up contract then Wilder should walk away!

We need more info, but again my sticking point is what does it say about a rematch in the contract!

Fans aren't that ****** so don't assume that they are.

[Raggamuffin]

If this fight is projected to make $100 mil then my post stands. If it is below $100 mil my opinion is subject to change as far as purses. My sole reason on why this offer was rejected is Al Haymon. He's negotiated big fights before.

Damning words: "The contract does not indicate where the fight will take place, when it will take place, or even whether it will be Joshua’s next fight".

It'll all come out. Boxing always comes full circle. They want Wilder to practically beg for a fight and he doesn't need them if he shames Joshua in public/social media and the public agrees. Even the UK fans are asking for this fight. Tiny big teeth Hearn can't avoid the public anymore.

I was neutral on the Wilder vs AJ debate until they made Wilder this joke of a take it or leave it offer. Mayweather's offer to Pacquiao was an insulting joke and this offer is almost as bad. Unless they make Wilder a better offer based on a percentage split of all available money I think they want no part of fighting Wilder and sent an offer they knew would be turned down. I know AJ is the A side but that doesn't entitle him to make 4 times what Wilder makes. A 65/35 split in AJ's favor is the least Wilder should get. I read that Khan got 13 million to fight Canelo in a non title fight that wasn't half this big and Khan wasn't even a champion.
