Comments Thread For: Tyson Fury: Current Heavyweights Afraid To Fight Each Other

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.

I don't have to argue! Sooner than later, AJ will have to answer the questions of why did he ask for $50 million, just to refuse to accept it!

I haven't wanted Povetkin to win a fight since he got busted a second time but I hope he knocks Joshua TFO. So sick of this A-side princess routine.

******* Fury speaks like an idiot who bumbled his career

Fury is a drug addict who squandered away millions while snorting away his promising career in the ring as a big bowling pin shaped lug with no brain but with talent. Go figure this goofy moron Fury out and win a prize.

I think wilder needs to answer first why he refused a career payday even after an improved contract offered.

I know what Wilder offered! You have know idea what Hearn offered! I'm good! You're concerned! You pray that it's something big, so AJ saves face! You know that $50 Million guarantee, and 50/50 of all total revenue is ridiculous! Unless you were born wealthy. In which case you have no idea about fighters, and the places fighters come from! There's no place for AJ to hide, because in that world, the world where fighters come from, NOBODY turns down a deal like that...EVER! Maybe AJ will be the first?

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.

Thanks for the update. Let's hope they get it done because I'm really looking forward to seeing Wilder get knocked TFO in front of 90,000 fans at Wembley!

So are you admitting that Wilder NEVER had a problem coming to the UK?

Sooner or later you are going to have to realize Joshua didnt ask for 50 Million and stop posting the SAME fake news .


Joshua said he would accept 50 Million IF it was a 100 Million dollar fight and split it 50/50 with Wilder .

He NEVER said give me 50 Million and i'll fight in the U.S ,and thats why you refuse to post those quotes !


Wilder never asked for 40% to come to the U.K until he almost lost to Ortiz .


If he has no problem going there why does he need 20 Million when he was originally for legacy and not money ?

AJ isn't the first to turn down an offer, wilder was. AJ is worth more than 50mil looking at % increase on a regular payday.
I have not seen any boxer turn down X6 of his regular hiding behind Vegas and show time.
