Why do Wilder fans justify Wilder rejecting $12.5 million offer from AJ?

I'm not a Wilder fan, but fat Dan said it well;
"...to be offered a flat fee is not a real offer. It's an offer meant for the Joshua team to be able to run around and say, "Hey, we made an offer, and Team Wilder turned it down." It's called playing games, and it's nothing new in boxing.
A little history lesson: When we were bogged down in the will-they-or-won't-they nonsense of the Floyd Mayweather-Manny Pacquiao saga, Mayweather at one point offered Pacquiao a flat fee of $40 million. That's monster money, but not in the context of that event. Pacquiao rightfully said no. When the fight was finally made, Pacquiao got 40 percent of the pie and earned well over $100 million.Comment

You're clearly a Wilder fan. You just look ****** denying it. You were defending Wilders ridiculous demands before Hearn made an offer.Comment

Oh, so now you're a massive Dan Rafael fan...you hate the man when he speaks against the fighters you like. Show some integirty red prick.
On top of all that, who is saying it's a flat fee? Has that been confirmed? Didn't finkel say Hearn was calling it a "take it or leave it 48 hour deadline". It's been over a week and AJ most recently states he is still open for negotiations.
Heck, he even went so far as to state if Wilder and his team claim it's a $100 million fight, then lets make it happen at 50/50 with $50 mill each.
Can you speak on that?
Idiot.
No it didn't. As you can see, red prick and company ducked my thread like the plague.Comment

same reason pacquiao fans justified him turning down a $40 million dollar flat fee.
same reason ggg fans justified him turning down a $10 million dollar flat fee.
flat fees dont make sense when it comes to the biggest fight boxing has to offer. it's simple. it's all about percentages.
But if I was wilder i would take that 12 million, but only if it comes without a rematch clause. I would knock AJ the f**k out and never give him a rematch.
I bet Hearn won't do that deal thoComment

Same situation that happened with May-Pac and Canelo-Golovkin. Best B-sides do not take flat fees. No matter which camp of fans are acting like little girls, the story remains the same.
Golovkin haters whined about him not taking Canelo's flat fees, now Wilder haters will whine about him not taking flat fees.Comment
