    I don’t care about how much they make I’m just explaining the business side of it. And Wilder already accepted the 15m flat fee right? So no need to cry about it.

    If that’s the case in your opinion then Pac should’ve also just easily accepted Floyd’s 40million flat fee right since he was the B-side? And not care that the fight made 500m??
    Didn't you read the my previous post?
    Maidana went into the May fight with popularity medals taken from the Broner fight.
    Pacquaio is out of this world popularity.
    Seems ****** to compare him with a guy whom the media didn't even recognized when he visited Trump.
    Point is, this Deontay character doesn't deserve all these recognition.
    This is the guy whose manager said, "My baby won't be rush into fighting an aging Klitschko."
    His best win was from a 40 yr old Ortiz, who reports say had health issues.
    Wilder almost got stopped in that fight.

    Man this is bad for boxing.
    Who's next the Charlo twins?
    Fight scrubs all your career and wait for a massive pay day?
    Tsk tsk...

      He deserves at least that much. What was Golovkin highest purse before he fought Canelo ?

      It’s both the A & B side that make huge fights l. He should be paid accordingly
      No way Joshua vs Wilder generates over 100m in revenue.

        Maidana got a $1 million flat fee.
        What he eventually got was rights from the Argentinian feed.
        That's after TBE got bashed for being too greedy.
        Maidana more popular = $1 million
        Deontay 10x less popular = $15 million
        Man, it's gross.

          Maidana definitely had a ppv share. 1.5m was his guaranteed purse. And Joshua ain’t no Floyd either.

            Showtime have never confirmed it. Stephen Espinoza has only said he saw the contract and term sheet. Espinoza and SHO are part of Wilder's Camp, with their Al Haymon Affilation.

              Very nonsensical logic.

              Undeserving ones with lackluster resumes are getting high pay days.

                If the same fact keeps kicking your ass, I'm going to keep using it. Hearn's position was that the fight did 50 million in the US. Finkel's position was that it did 100 million in the US. AJ said, I don't believe it does 100 million in the US. If that's the case, give me 50 million and I'll sign tomorrow. So they gave him 50 million. Then he said, I don't care about the money, I want to fight at home.

                So then you blame Wilder's team for not increasing the offer to 70 million?!? You're a lunatic.


                Haymon was obviously confident of big numbers if this is true. So why would it bomb?
                Wilder was being offered 12.5 by Hearn. So the event would only have to profit 62.5 in the US to cover AJ's requested 50, and for Wilder to make the same he would have made, plus have home advantage. Maybe the fight would make more, maybe it wouldn't. But to guarantee AJ 70 million would be insanity when he already said give me 50 and I'll sign tomorrow.

                  I think if held in the States it would exceed 100 million ( why would people guarantee AJ 50 mil if they didn’t feel confident they’d at least cover his purse if you take into account that 50 odd % of revenue generated goes to the distributors )

                  But we’ll probably never know because Hearn and AJ would rather take short $ to fight in the UK and put it on DAZN in the States instead of PPV. Basically AJs willing to F.uck himself over to benefit Hearn

                      If there is a mega star who deserves 80-20 split against maidana alexander berto level guys that’s Floyd.

                      Do you think Joshua should get 80-20 against Wilder as well?
                      The price for beating Joshua ain’t even close to beating Floyd.

                      Obviously this will be a bigger fight than Floyd-Maidana I —that didn’t even cracked 1m ppv buys— because it has the ingredients.
                      and 15m give or take might just be the right purse.
                      Hearn and Joshua already agreed to that amount so i dont know what you’re crying about. What they couldn’t agree about were the other issues in the contract.
