does the cheque not get processed if its flat fee? u guys make me laugh, all saying 'oh wilder deserves more money to fight joshua rather than fury' isnt that basically proof that joshuas the one bringing in all the money? and if joshuas bringing in the cash why does wilder deserve a hand out. He can get the same rate the others get, maybe a bit more. Certainly not a lot more than parker who was an undefeated world champ. You dont get a premium cause u are american.
30-40% was fair but for some reason hearn said hes not worth a percentage.... but parker was.
my point is he never went after AJ, hes been yapping in public and he probably was negotiating this in the background. 15 mill is more than he can get anywhere else, if he really wanted it he'd have signed the contract.
Why do you keep blaming D.Wilder when Aj asked for 50million? Aj is NOT going to get THAT anywhere else.
People are ripping OP but that's a legit point. He'd probably get about a half of what he turned down for Joshua and Fury has had one fight (against a bum and looked bad) in 3 years.
Some think he's a saint for doing this but some could legitimately claim he's taking a much easier fight for much less money when his issue all along was money after he said "it's not about the money", "I'd fight him in England for free". One can make the point it's a cherry pick.
How real was the $50m? Joshua rightly wanted the fight at home being the A side with 75% of the belts. Wilder was the one who could have just said “yes” and the fight would have been signed. He was the deal breaker no matter how it’s spun.
You trying to spin it but the FACT is Aj was the one who asked for 50million so why didn't he stick to it? And how "real" was the 15million, Twinky??
