The guy who writes “finkelidiot” is telling someone else to grow up.
Years ago, I thought you might be a serious poster with a different opinion. Over time, I’ve come to realize you’re a piece of ****. I’m adding you to ignore so feel free to have the last word.
Soul is just another Joshua **** blower. Don’t let him bother you. He means well, but they’ve never had anyone with the stiff ones hype before in boxing he U.K. He’s a bit giddy if you ask me. He’s confident that Wilder Joshua wont happen. That’s why he talks that way lmao. Joshua can just cowardly bypass Wilder using any of excuse.
Pretty sure Joshua sells that many tickets in 10 minutes when his fights go on sale in the UK lol.
Wilder purses
Ortiz= 2.1 million
Stiverne 1 = 1 million
Molina =1.4 million
Duhappas = 1.4 million
Szpilka = 1.5 million
Arreola= 1.4 million
Washington = 900k
Stiverne 2 = 1.4 million
Total of 12.1 million for 8 fights listed there.
Wilder was set to earn 4.5 million vs Povetkin where he had to go to Russia for the fight.
Joshua vs Wilder, Wilder offered 12.5 million to go to the UK.
Eddie Hearn is no idiot. He's putting a number on Wilders value which based on these figures I've listed looks more than fair. This is not Tyson-Holyfield for Christ sakes. It's a huge UK star vs a fairly known American fighter.
So why a flat fee and no percent rate if Wilder has agreed that Joshua is the A side and can have the fight in the U.K? Why the flat fee? And for the record, your calculations have zero to do with how much a fight can generate.
of course they do kell brook attendance was over 20k in uk vs errol spence but what happened to his attendance in the porter fight in the usa.... 7k
again england supports their fighters, more so than americans do
No... This is incorrect. Find me the attendances from Brook Vs Gavin... Or brook Vs JoJo Dan and tell me that they were good attendances or if they weren't headlining that the fans came to see that fight rather than the headliner.
An even better example is fury and Saunders. Show me fights where those two have sold out a UK arena that ISNT the copperbox which holds a small amount.
It has everything to do with good promotion and a fighters drawing ability. Nothing to do with our ability as Brits to support a fighter because he lives on our little island.
If what you were saying were true.. British fighters who have accomplished much in the sport would have ..would be now and would continue to draw like AJ. They don't..
As a boxing fan who would you rather watch fight? Some slow bodybuilding coward or the guy who throws every punch with bad intention? Joshua is lucky that he's in the UK...those people have no idea about boxing...they bandwagon everything they see on tv
Calling a boxer a coward, someone who risks his life fighting for our entertainment. Lets not get onto Wilders punching, hes ****ing shocking lol.
and of course thats what happens in america, which happens to be the most diverse country in the world no?
You implied it..... the only reason we get behind fighters is because we are a small country, nationalistic..... totally forgetting we are 4 sovereign nations under one flag.
