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

You're one dumb mother****er lmao.

looks like you have been owned again gumbo......what a knob you are

wilder is a non entity compared to the 2nd best fighter of our generation and pacquaio was already 4 or 5 division champion and was a proven ppv star in his own right.
Don't compare wilder to pacquaio as its like comparing a B movie star to al pacino.
I don't see anyway wilder can earn that type of purse in any of his future fights and if wilders team thinks he can make more against joshua why have they not come up with a counter offer.....thats because wilder is a risk and they cant guarantee why revenue he will make in america

I was actually hoping/praying that they somehow get the american networks/vegas in on this, so they can take the risk and put the money up front. Wilder doesn't sell so they just have to hope that the combination of him and Joshua would.

Even if they come up with a loss they can at least have Wilder as their undisputed champ (If he wins) and then maybe they would make their monies back that way.

I think Wilder should take the risk and accept like 15million dollars (Counter offer), get in there and get those belts off AJ. That would help his career tenfolds.

Apparently both sides are keen on a rematch clause, so we'd likely see a rerun in Vegas.

Thats another point. A rematch if Wilder wins the first fight would be more lucrative for vegas/american networks. Hopefully they support him.

1st fight in wembley stadium with 90k attendance and then if both fighters sign for rematch then only fair in the states.....probably vegas but who knows.
All i know is which ever fighter wins i am guessing it would end with a pretty concussive ko or brutal stoppage and who ever is on the receiving end of that ko maybe they wont be to keen stepping to quickly back n the ring.
The first fight will not be in the states i guarantee you that ray

Wilder-Joshua is a monster fight that will draw money and interest from everywhere, so historical figures don't much matter (will note that Wilder has been a million dollar fighter since the fight against Stiverne and growing).

Wilder-Joshua brings MGM Resorts into the picture in a major way, and Wilder-Joshua brings Showtime PPV into the picture as well; both moves are worth, quite literally, are worth what Hearn offered Wilder, each.

We already know what the ceiling for a blockbuster showdown at Wembley can command as a maximum; depending on what you believe, that number is £30m ($43m to the fighters).

Wilder is working with a potentially far larger pot than that; splitting $70m between Wilder and Joshua isn't unheard of and that number could exploding higher if the casual fan launches.

Finkel is working on a plan that exploits the inter dimensional appeal of Wilder-Joshua. The interest from Narnia is very significant here. It's likely that Aslan himself will bid for the screening rights and the talking animals are ready to raid their stores of gold to boost the fighters prize pot.

The news from Middle Earth is even more positive. The dwarves, eager to support their long lost brother Finkel are emptying the mines of Moria and the Lonely Mountain of its gold, loaded on the back of a dragon and on its way to Al Haymon's waiting boat. Ready to bring the Elven rings of power and mithril armour to the home of the bronze bomber, famous as the most popular fighter from Mordor to Numenor.

With the Leprechaun gold from various rainbows still to be counted the wizards of Hog***** have been enlisted to give their aid. Jay Deas, himself a master of the magical arts of stuffing resumes with fat dead people is using Gringotts bank to store the vast fortunes which have been pledged in inter dimensional Wilder Joshua PPV subscriptions.

Whether its the Martians of Barsoom, the Starks and the Lannisters, Westeros to Earthsea, the Final Frontier to a Galaxy Far, Far Away, no-one, real or fictional, can get enough of the wonder that is Wilder Joshua.

And that's the reason Shelley Finkel hasn't sent that offer back yet. Too many territories, too much money, poor man can't cope.

Yes Wilder is a very smart businessman. First he turned down 12.5 million, then 120 million. How much money will Wilder turn down next?? 200 million? 300??
