Comments Thread For: Nelson: If Wilder Turns Down Joshua Offer - It Doesn't Look Good

[chicken-]

So when Wilder expects more money for a UNIFICATION BOUT that happens very rarely, you all say he doesn't want the fight because he's not confident enough that he'll win.

Somehow Joshua isn't just looking for a payday, and is supremely confident that he'll win even though he's being stubborn and only offering a flat fee for let me repeat myself, A UNIFICATION BOUT IN THE HEAVYWEIGHT DIVISION. Most of you were probably ****ting in diapers the last time this happened.

I don't see this fight taking place in 2019 if Wilder's team continue to take this path... It is becoming boring reading about Joshua-Wilder yet nothing concrete

No moron it doesn’t work like that. I know idiots like yourself only understand one language but not everyone is uneducated like yourself. Again Wilder and Joshua have sold zero PPV in America. So no it’s NOT PPV event for any network to take a risk on. If it is then Wilder would have been on PPV with one of his 40 fights.

When the boss of Showtime says it is a PPV Event, i am sure he believes it does good numbers.Wilder v Joshua is the only PPV in the US for Joshua and Wilder.Why would Wilder be on US PPV against anyone else you ******, Wilder v Joshua is PPV in America nuff said.Both unbeaten, powerful ko artists and speak very good english as well being for the UNDISPUTED heavyweight titles

You can’t take anything anyone says who’s associated with Skysports / Matchroom seriously when it comes to this fight

Because they all tow the company line


Nelson opinion on this doesn’t matter and just full of sh.it

Exactly he's the last person in earth who should be giving an opinion on this. His tounge is so far up AJs a$$

This guy still don't get it.
The business model in the UK is very different from the US.
Hearn doesn't rely on PPV alone as it's significantly cheaper in Europe.
If the fight is to be made in the US, Haymon/Showtime have to take the helm, because Hearn has no clue in doing it.
Therefore, Wilder's team, which includes Haymon, would have to be the ones who would run numbers, estimate how much it will make, etc.
Meaning, they're obligated to make an offer to Joshua.
Not the other way around.

Simple then ******, tell them to put their monies where their mouth is. So far more bark than actual facts.

Listen u Fangirl.The fight being in Las Vegas dosent just benefit Wilder, it actually benefits Matchroom and Joshua most importantly.He knocks out Wilder in Las Vegas with the whole GLOBAL Media covering instead of a bunch of British Tabloids...He will become a megastar and endorsements and sponsers will come in more numbers.Joshua should make this in America and offer 60/40 to Wilder.If Parker got 33%, Wilder deserves 40%.

Ok beetch let your networks put their monies where their mouth is. So it can benefit your god and we can finally see the fight.

[Reverb]

Parker didnt even have a belt. Wilder's trying to unify the titles. And I would hope AJ wod want the same thing. Parker would not beat Ortiz.

Parker had the WBO belt.

Hearn said with his own nouth there is more money in Veagss vs Wilder then AJ had ever made so you better believe he needs him just as much for his biggest payday
