Here's the thing though. What IF this fight does end up generating over £100million ($141M) What then? Wilder pretty much just fcked himself basically. None of you laughing at the £100million figure can definitively prove it doesn't reach that mark. That's why flat fees in a big fight are always an insult. Period.
It was Hearn who put the magical £100million figure out there when he revealed his plans to sign Wilder to his stable (on that note why would Hearn want to sign a guy who doesn't draw flies to **** according to some of you. What does Hearn see in Wilder that you guys don't?)
How come nobody jumped on Hearn immediately to call his aspirations delusional? but now all of the sudden saying this fight can POTENTIALLY surpass $140M is considered a pipe dream? Nobody knows wtf it's gonna generate. You can't predict sht like this. Now Hearn is changing his tune and calling this a $40 million dollar fight. What changed his mind? is it to justify the flat fee? who knows but it's strange he's singing a different song now. That's my only question. What IF this does make more than $140M. In that case Wilder would be the biggest clown in boxing history.
"Wilder said he doesn't care about money" yeah and Pacquiao said he would fight Floyd for FREE. Remember that? so what's your point.
Wilder also said he's willing to accept anything AS LONG AS AJ ACCEPTS IDENTICAL TERMS IN A REMATCH. Why do y'all always hop step over that little nugget? why ignore it. If you're gonna quote him to slam his refusal then quote him fully. Will AJ accept $12.5 million flat fee in a rematch? if the answer is yes and this is written in the offer then and only then you can say Wilder is ducking and stalling this fight. The logical solution to all this is a percentage split. Period.
