I dont understand these guys and money

[man down]

"I want millions to fight" Something I dont understand. These guys battle over money. Like Wilder and his demands. Or BJS and his demands. If you think you're that good and can win then jump in and after you win you'll get that money. Seems simple enough.

It's capitalism rearing its ugly head.

Thats the thing , Wilder had he took the 12.5 offer then makes 20 plus Million with the rematch its a 30 Million plus deal with Hearns offer .


Thats as greedy as ANY fighter can be who averages BELOW 1. 5 Million ive seen .

In the end its a result of the fight not happening next and his dumbed down fanbase becoming accountants .......money dont matter doe?


As you suggested if one thinks he can win he takes the fight then makes the money , Wilder simply wants everything handed to him .


If one decides not to make about 31 Million dollars more minimum in 2 fights than his 1.5 Million in fighting his normal payouts ,somethings wrong there .

I wonder why that only applies to Wilder but when Golovkin was offered 10 million and he turned it down, you guys had his back!

I think he was just making a point with some examples
Who offered him that? If you say canelo then yeah it’s trash because that fight would easily generate over $50 mil plus

The fight generated over 100 million and by paying him only 10 mil is saying canelo was responsible for 90% of the revenue? Yeah sure that’s why his fight with Liam smith did 300k buys. Ggg is a much bigger name than smith and the 1.3 mil buys for the fight prove that

Shouldn't you push the limit on how much you get in boxing where the law of the land says you should/can????

Why wouldn't you push the amounts you can get?

I mean as a fan its the least sexy thing we talk about here usually + its not like there is much full disclosure on money any damn way, but yea mfers should go get there's.
