Comments Thread For: Deontay Wilder vs. Tyson Fury is a 50-50 Deal, Says Frank Warren

[Outwest Exp 355]

I have only started watching boxing 3 months ago.So Yes Einstein some contracts are even signed the week a fighter is supposed to fight . However I chose to focus on a fight that is not the case. Now focus on what I am saying instead of just replying.

Did Deontay not agree to all terms? Yes even the flat fee 15 million. Did Hearn not send over a contract for Wilder’s ink? The contract was not signed due to blah blah blah. However is there another contract on Deontay’s desk already signed from team Joshua for April. So Whilst I appreciate you input you don’t know conclusively what is happening especially when Warren has stated they have signed the contract.

Maybe Hearn should’ve let Wilders team know that they were negotiating for an April fight, because Deontay and his team were under the impression that they were negotiating for a fight this year.

50-50 sounds good, shows how much respect the 2 boxers have for each other, and also shows Warren isn’t as greedy as Hearn. This is a great fight, it’s time for the heavyweight glory to return to America.

Now we are talking about something else. My only point which you tried to ridicule was that in the case of Joshua vs Wilder a contract was drawn up .Terms were agreed but the contract was not signed. Now Fury and Wilder both said it is official we are fighting. Frank Warren then went further and said we have signed the contract. As I talk to you now there is no official location or venue. Please explain ?

This is one of the most pathetic come backs I have ever seen on this forum. And that's saying a lot.

its even worse when a clown like you has no point . See ya

With all due respect what was so distasteful about his comment? 80% of Wilder fans complained and protested that the reason why the contract was not signed was because of the date and venue. This forthcoming fight is living proof that a contract can still be signed even though the location and date of fight is still not finalised

Now in Hindsight it has probably all worked out for the best but I thought juggernaut 666 made a valid point

Without any of us knowing the negotiations, I'm sure it has been said where it would be (as Fury let slip out) and either November or December. If Hearn would have publicly came out and said it would be this year, it would have been different. Instead, when pressed about the date he came up with the 24 hr warning about Povetkin.

If Hearn wanted Wilder to sign for the flat fee offer, he has to assure him that it is this year, not a year from now. Huge difference. It is obvious he had no intention of a Wilder fight this year. Warren didn't throw up road blocks and lie like Hearn did. Now, if Hearn offered a 50-50 deal with no indication of a date, Wilder would have signed it.

Vegas is the official location, sounds like Wilder is waiting for Warren to decide between November and December before revealing the exact location.

The location is set. It doesn't matter if the date is November or December because we know the fight is next for sure. Wilder wasn't sure if his fight with AJ would be NEXT due to him negotiating with Povetkin. The location is the only thing needed since Fury doesn't have a mandatory pop up all of a sudden. Different situations.

I’m sure the date and venue is already in place people. They just want to hold a press conference next week to make it official.

Wilder the real heavyweight champion. Aj is a coward with no ba l l $ , like every british man nowadays. You guy's needed us in ww2 qnd now you need trump to complete the brexit

Wait NO date or Venue ?

You guys better inform Finkel before he cancels bc according to him it was THAT reason he didnt sign the Joshua contract !



Of course its 50 % bc neither guy can claim they generate revenue more then the other and Fury probably makes more then Wilder the current WBC champion ( pathetic ) !

no doubt!!!!!!!!!
