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

[Ake-Dawg]

It's a big fight because of Joshua, not because of Wilder.

Maidana is a better and more proven fighter than Wilder. So yeah, that falls flat.

If it's a big fight because of Joshua alone, why is it predicted to make, by a wide margin, more revenue than any other fight Joshua has been involved in?

[Curt Henning]

So all these boxers, boxing experts, boxing trainers, promoters and legends are lying right? Man if you believe that then I don't know what else to say about you. What reason would any of them want to smear and tarnish Anthony Joshua's good name and reputation if they didn't believe what they are saying about him is true? If they don't believe this then why would they lie on him?

did that guy really compare the opinions of all the guys you listed to a piece of a cheese?

thats the most egregious case of delusion ive encountered on this board in some time

Well it won't make that kind of money in the UK. And I don't think it would have made 100 mill in the US either. Wilder is an unknown who has never fought on PPV before. And if it did make 100 mill, the TV companies take half of it. No way the fighters get to split it between them.

He was claiming it as evidence for Hearn not wanting to have the fight at the end of 2018. Nothing about it was evidence. The fact that the pair of you do, shows who the delusional ones clearly are.

As I say, claiming a piece of cheese told him would have been just as valuable as the **** he came out with.

Hell yeah! All those guys I've mentioned have several years of experience in the fight game combined. Therefore there expert opinions count.

I guess you know better than the guys who actually do this stuff. They all think it's a 100M fight in the US.

Name one person in boxing that thinks this flat fee is a good offer.

[champion4ever]

It is their opinion you fool. Not an absolute fact. Do you even know the difference? No evidence exists you fool.

Why don't you get back to telling me your witnesses against Joshua and Hearn ducking the fight are Joshua himself and his own trainer. Duh!!

All these men have reputable standings and years of experience in the fight game. Therefore, their expert opinions count. I would take their word over yours anytime of the day because your opinion doesn't hold water but theirs do.

Are you going on record saying the fight won't make more than Joshua Parker? Are you going on record saying that Parker deserved a split and Wilder doesn't? Are you ignoring that no one in boxing supports the flat fee offer?

I mean opinions differ all the time, but when no one considered an expert thinks that the flat fee is a good deal.....

Exactly! The fight is worth more than the sum of its parts.
U gotta value what Wilder is worth against Joshua not anything else. I know it takes speculation but that’s boxing. If he’s so worthless then offer him full ppv cut of any buys above and beyond the Wlad fight. No purse. Just the upside to anything that makes it bigger than AJs biggest fight. He’d take it.

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.

Thanks for this u just saved me a lot of time so I didn’t have to explain
