    Have there been a case where the B side turned down a lucrative offer...

    ...not to mention a shot at multiple titles because of the date?

    No ones ever turned down OVER 7 times their highest earning at HW ! Maybe in all weight classes ?

    Wilder is certainly in the history books !

        Lemme see, has anyone ever called out a fighter, the fighter responds to say let's fight; and then demanded $50 million, the fighter delivers the money; and then demanded that the fight take place in his home country, the fighter agrees to travel -- and then decides NOT to fight after all?

          Pacman made 25 /30 Million without Floyd .

          I dont think thats possible !

          30 x 7 is 210 Million he would have had to decline to beat out Wilders 7x which was over 15 Million .

          Wilder made 2.1 and jumped to 15 Million AND 4 belts too that were on the line .

            Has any fighter ever AGREED to terms , get the contract and refuse to sign after 3 months of B.S that they cause ?

                  So Wilder basically turned down a shot at 4 titles,
                  plus $15 million because of the effing date.
                  What's the huge deal about it?
                  I honestly don't know.
                  They say the original date was set to Sept 15, 2018.
                  It was moved because they didn't expect the Glovkin rematch to be made.
                  Which is reasonable.
                  It can't be closer than Sept 15.
                  Could be October, November, December.
                  Ample time to prepare for training.
                  So what are these clowns whining about?

                    Well you might as well just list an entire roster bc ive NEVER heard of any boxer turning down that much .


                    I think the problem is you guys don't realise that 2 .1 Million dollars SUCKS for a HW champion with 7 title defenses and it will be VERY hard to find someone getting more under paid then Wilder and then declining a 7 plus x what he makes !
