    That was silly too. I recall Floyd saying in a FightHype article that the offer would include a PPV %. But then he doubled down on the flat fee thing when Costas interviewed him and that was dumb.

      They are looking for reasons to support AJ's garbage offer of a 12.5 million flat fee while AJ would make several times 12.5 million. They are trying to make it look like Wilder doesn't want the fight. He wants the fight but he wants to get paid fairly. AJ appears not to want the fight judging by the unfair offer he just made. A 65/35 split in AJ's favor might be fair. 12.5 million flat fee for this monster fight is an insult of an offer and Wilder is right not to take it.

        GGG was selling out arenas and his paydays were around 2 mil? Where you on here asking him to take the 10 million flat fee Oscar was offering for the Canelo fight as well? AJ could ignore fighting Wilder and keep making 18 million at home if he wants. Wilder could do the same and make his 2-3 million. It's pretty obvious that they would make a lot more fighting each other. And there is no way that AJ can come to the states and make 18 million fighting Miller. All this talk about AJ selling 2 mil Sky PPVs is BS too because if he was, Hearn and Sky would be bragging about it. His biggest PPV was against Klitchko and the biggest Sky PPV is still May/Mac.

              All those numbers combined are less than what Joshua-Takam drew. Joshua had more people at the Takam fight than Wilder's 40 fight career combined. Take into account Klit and Parker were even bigger than that too.

              Also the gate. How much was the gate? Those tickets were not expensive. I doubt in Alabama they were pricey and Stiverne 2 they were peanuts.

                the simple solution is for AJ to negotiate with wilder the same way they did with parker. nobody was asking how much parker previously made. Klitz didn't ask AJ how much he previously made n make a big deal. Just negotiate a deal, they both offer eachother their highest pay, you cant send another champ a number with no date or venue n tell him he has 48 hours to comply after you sat n negotiated with PARKER. AJ is the A side and deserves the bigger split, the fight will be in the UK, how anyone defend that is beyond me

                  The Parker deal wasn't done overnight. It took 2 or 3 months. This will likely be the same.

                      His ticket prices are non existent and ignore that he has the 2nd highest attendance at Barclays and ignore that Joshua nose bleeds start at like 30-40

                      AJ is a mixture of Alis celebrity , Mayweather money making ability and a dash of Jesus
                      Wilder should grovel to fight him and consider himself lucky to even be considered to be allowed in the same ring as this modern day deity

                      Nah Wilder just needs to KNOW HIS ROLE!

                      Compared to Joshua, he can't draw flies to shyte!

                      He makes 1/10 of what Joshua does.

                      And he's ugly as piss with chicken-legs and glass waiting to be shattered.

                      Just KNOW YOUR ROLE, BOY, and you will get the privilege of fighting Joshua, and you'll get 8 times more than you've ever made, and more than you ever will make again in the future.

                      Know your role, and be grateful, boy..
