Comments Thread For: Parker Promoter: Wilder is Trying To Steal Money Off Joshua

[rafieljohnson]

I can respect that but i want to see the numbers cause they don't lie

[rafieljohnson]

Because stadium fights are for real boxing fans, not casino gamblers. The average tickets go for $20 up in the rafters. That's where the real fans show up. Not in a casino where half the tickets get comped.

So basically you're saying he gives the average man a chance to see him fight instead of selling out for the 50M he asked for?

SKY doesn't release PPV numbers, yet AJ fans claim he sell millions of PPVs. The biggest PPV was AJ/Wlad, yet Floyd/Mac topped that according to the people at SKY. If AJ was outselling that PPV, SKY and Hearn would be putting out there.

I agree, even if he was doing Canelo type numbers they would be putting it out since Canelo is the top PPV guy other than Money

Point was,
when you're the B-side you don't count how much money the A-side will make.
You won't care whether it's PPV, will make billion dollars, etc.
You should only care about gaining 4 titles,
becoming king of the division,
then the $$$$$$$$ will come later.
Otherwise, you'll look greedy as f#k and it's not the titles you're after.
even after saying it's not about the money from day one.
I WANT JOSHUA NOW!!!!
Kills me with this Wilder clown.
It's as if it's his last fight and retire after.

How is Wilder counting how much money Joshua making? You guys make these terrible comparisons and then change the subject or introduce some other random argument.

No flat fees for major fights.

Golovkin was basically the undisputed champion. He's well ahead of Wilder in every way.

Did Floyd give title holders a percentage of the money? Did Oscar? Did Tyson? No, they didn't. Joshua is a huge A side while Wilder is a weak B side. You don't give percentages to fighters like that. It does make any sense.

How much did Golovkin make in the first Canelo fight?

Golovkin got a percentage split for the first fight. All the big fights in history have been on splits. Wilder vs Joshua isnt Mayweather vs Maidana, it's a mega fight.

Trying to call Wilder a weak B side to justify the flat fee is terrible. He is the best heavyweight Joshua can fight. The revenue for their fight will far exceed that of Joshua Parker....and Parker got a percentage.

Rick Glaser ( Boxing executive / match maker ) who is direct friends of Wilder and his camp DIRECTLY stated over a month ago on BWTM sports that Wilder was INDEED worrying about Joshuas money and told INGRAM who runs the channel that Wilder doesn't want Joshua making a lot of money bc of him . lol


He also goes on and states Wilder believes hes the A side which proves he has mental issues !


He also puts Wilder at fault and states the 12.5 offer was a great deal IF Wilder believes he can win and we all know who declined what ! Larry Hazard a boxing commissioner and ATG ref said the SAME thing .


If you cant figure out that Wilder doesnt take notice how much Joshua makes by demanding ridiculous terms for months now then your a bigger fool then i thought !

He never intended to take the $15m all along. When the contract arrived he stalled.

His own offer to fight in Vegas included a 50/50 split. I think he's just properly deluded. He wanted 50/50 from the start.

Pump ur brakes he accepted the 15mil

No he didn't. When the contract arrived he stalled, Finkel put out a interview with Dan Rafael (for what reason, I wonder?), and the WBA stepped in.

Wilder wasn't going to rubber stamp any document before reading it. They deliberately left the venue and date blank because it was a postdated contract for April 2019 anyhow. It was the typical classic Bait-and Switch tactic. There was never any intention by Team Joshua or Eddie Hearn on fighting Wilder in 2018. Had they decided to add those logistical aspects of the contract in writing; Chances are they could have been sued for breach of contract because there wasn't going to be a fight this year.
