Comments Thread For: Atlas: Joshua's Handlers Should Keep Him Away From Wilder

[Scipio2009]

I was trying to get through the debris of your thought process until I hit this gem: "Wilder has been schooled well enough, by Haymon and Finkell to understand his worth to an event."

After that I just started hysterically laughing. I suspect you are either Haymon or Finkell and went incognito here, right? Not to worry, your secret is safe with me.

Wilder-Whyte sells out O2 Arena at the prices of Joshua's last O2 Arena fight (it doesn't sell out in minutes, but it sells out, even more so with Wilder in country), Wilder-Whyte does well on Sky Box Office (not Joshua-Klitschko numbers but better than Joshua-Whyte), and Showtime isn't letting the fight go anywhere else (putting the US TV rights at somewhere between $2m and $3m).

Keep being ignorant if you want.

Does it really matter if it's a flat fee or not. An offer is a representation of the fighter worth/value at that particular moment. Wilder is not even worth the amount offered to him. Let's be sincere here.

why take a flat fee when you can make more ??? Tell me another Hw who took a flat fee for a Hw title unification fight. Funny how every Brit is trying to find a way to spin this as it wilders fault when Hearn is mulling over the offer.

Tell me another HW CHAMPION only making 1.4 Million a fight and as low as 900,000 a fight over a course of 7 title defenses and in 40 fights barely got over 2 Million ?


You take the 12.5 and win and get over 30 Million down to 1.5 on avg .


Wilder CANT even make 13 Million if he pays Joshua 50 Million NEXT .


Seriously what is your level of education bc it will tell me a lot without LYING ?


The reality is you Wilder fans are dumb as hell and you have a hard time obtaining logical points to show LOGIC ......in fact its so bad the Fury fans are over you and the majority of them are dumb as hell too ...lol .........

I agree. If Team Joshua takes Team Wilder on their $50 Million offer then they will be fighting Deontay on his terms. That means the fight will be staged in America. Anthony is the A side however Team Wilder would never agree to flat fee of S12.5 Million in the U.K. I guess Team Joshua is going to have to step up their offer or capitulate to Team Wilder's demands in staging the fight in America.

I am pessimist. I don't see this fight happening this year. Per usual Hearn is only blowing hot air by telling the fight fans what they want to hear.

Or he can ignore him and go onto fight Povetkin, Whyte, Fury, Miller, etc.

Joshuas' career defining fight was Klitchsko. He don't even need Wilder to have an ATG career. Wilder is the one who needs a big fight.

I'd be alright to wait a few fights for this, but none of this Floydie waiting out Pac to get old b.s. 5 years.

wilders team proves they had the money . So now they called team AJ bluff. Now we have the funds but still no fight.

Team AJ don't need prove, they said show us the money and pay upfront.
B. Heard has come out to say he is going to pay wilder in full within 5minutes of him agreeing on his contract. So what's taking them long to pay upfront if the money is there?

[Laligalaliga]

we are waiting on team AJ. Please stay off this board if you don’t know what you are talking about .

Smiles.... You absolutely know nothing, it's obvious.

Based on wilder market value, if going by %, he might worth about 15-20% at Max cos he brings nothing but a green belt to the table.
The bro is not worth 12mil to be sincere. He can't make such pay until he retires except AJ is involved.
If I was heard, just because of the fans, I will give him 15mil max or let him go fight breazeale his daily manner for 1.5mil.
That's his f****in regular.
