Why would Wilder offer Joshua $50 million to fight in the UK? You know, and everybody else knows, that Joshua asked for $50 million to come to Las Vegas! Once the bag appeared, he got shook! It is what it is! SWERVE! It's simple, just give Wilder the 40% he asked for, and he'll be on a plane, just like he did for Povetkin!

That's the end of story, but the beginning is where the problem started! I am sure Ortiz regrets letting Wlad face Joshua in the first place! However, he let them fight, thinking he would get the winner! Unfortunately, Joshua turned b*tch! I don't know what it is about MatchRoom that makes Pulev such an attraction?Comment

I don't know what it is about the UK that makes Wilder so scared to come over ... unless he's fighting a can like Audley. So far he's ducked Chisora, Whyte, and now it looks like he's going to duck AJ too.That's the end of story, but the beginning is where the problem started!

All it takes is 40%! It's not that hard, Wilder will travel! Just ask Povetkin...at the Joshua vs. Povetkin fight! Will that fight be in Russia or the UK?Comment

June 5, 2018 @ 1154 EST:
Joshua promoter Eddie Hearn of Matchroom Boxing has said that Joshua and trainer/manager Rob McCracken want the fight in the United Kingdom. Finkel said it is not an issue.
"I met with Eddie's father, Barry [Hearn, head of Matchroom], this past Friday in New York and it was a good meeting," Finkel said. "I'm hopeful that they will get back to me this week and that something can be done to make the fight in the fall. I'm optimistic.
"If [fighting in the United Kingdom] is a condition for us to get the fight, that will not be an impediment on our side. There are still some roads to cross but hopefully it will happen and we'll see the fight this year. If we're going to make the fight, the place where it will take place isn't going to be the problem. We have no problem going to the U.K. It never was a problem. Deontay has never had a problem with that..."
After Hearn offered Wilder a $12.5 million flat fee for the fight with no participation in the profits of what figures to be a nine-figure bonanza, Wilder countered with an offer of $50 million against 50 percent of the total revenue with no rematch clause with the intention of bringing the bout to Las Vegas or New York, but Joshua did not accept.
Finkel said they continue to work with Joshua's side on the split of the revenue.

Unfortunately he will not get 40% and there is nothing anybody can do about it.Why would Wilder offer Joshua $50 million to fight in the UK?

If he is interested in fighting breazeale for 1.5mil ahead of a potential career payday with AJ, that's his business. It doesn't stop us from watching who ever AJ wants to fight.
Wilder's stock can never go up with breazeale fight, either fury or AJ are the fighters that can increase his stock from the penny he fights for and put him up on ppv.Comment

Nobody will give him 40%, let's not argue over this.
When he was the A side against Ortiz, how many % did Ortiz (the so called bogeyman) got?
About 25%.
Sentiment should not be added to this things.Comment

It won't stop "you" from watching, but it will stop me, and many others! I'm definitely not paying to see another boring fight like the last 2!Unfortunately he will not get 40% and there is nothing anybody can do about it.
