Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua Smiles: This Payday is Deontay Wilder's Legacy!

This coward turned down a guaranteed $50 million plus upside incentives with a concrete automatic rematch claus

The coward is the one asking for half the money when he brings **** all to the table. Oh, and he wants a rematch clause even though a B side has never had one in history. You fool.

yes lets see how december 1st go's ..if it bombs at the ppv market and the arena is till not sold out and tickets are easy to buy then stop this ****** talk abiut a 50/50 clash and if it creates a real buzz and sells big on ppv and packs out the arena then he has a case for 50/50 untill then talking waffle.
Ohh 14k ...just so you know joshua last 4 fights have been 83k 70k 70k and 90k so talking about tickets sold.
Its embarassing on your part

But the real question is what kinda numbers has aj done compared to wilder. I think he did about 30,000 more on the buys vs Parker than wilder did vs Ortiz... I do believe people really aren’t educating themselves and are just listening to what wilder or what Eddie hearns (cause aj ain’t allowed to talk for himself) says. Y’all need to see what each side is saying and educate ya self cause it’s making a lotta people look ******

No one is saying that Wilder is the draw in the US that Joshua is in the UK, but there's no need to try and act that Wilder is a lesser draw than he actually is.

Just keep things in actual perspective, is all I'm saying

I agree with you man.. That punk Joshua said give $50 million and I swear to god I'll sign the contract tomorrow... And what happened??
He got the money he wanted but then he started backpedaling.
Joshua is a punk!
And I was rooting for Joshua to beat Wilder before he turned down the $50 million!
Now if they ever Fight I hope Wilder beats the brakes off Joshua!

He never said to give him 50 mill and he'll fight in the states though did he? He's always said he wants the fight in the UK. That offer was only for the fight to be in the states. And as the massive A side, he's not going to travel for a 2 bit nobody like Wilder. If Wilder wants a shot at the champ, he has to travel. Either that or stay and home fighting bums and shot fighters for much less money.

Ok.. I will keep it real, *** it! I will say it!.. Hearns is cooking the books.. which is why he's offering a flat rate.. that way other promoters working with matchroom don't know how much he's pocketing after the event. Not even his azzpuppet AJ. Secondly.. 50 million guarantee.. AJ couldn't accept that fight in the u.s.. because eddie has no jurisdiction over vada, in America.. imagine the damage done if he pisses hot in America. No fight, loses belts, a tarnished reputation, lost fans.. lost indorsments deals.. an most of all no 50+ million guarantee, and on top of that.. sued, for about 20 million. Just for being a cheating piece of shyte. Lol.

Golovkin had no chance to draw money without Alvarez, and everyone knew it.

Deontay Wilder isn't where Anthony Joshua is in the UK, but he's been aggressively building his reach over the last two years, to the point that Showtime was basically ready to go with a PPV push for the initial Tyson Fury confrontation.

MGM Resorts now has money on offer for big Deontay Wilder fights (the Joshua fight, the Fury fight, and likely the Ortiz rematch have already drawn Vegas interest), and 500k PPV homes (depending on how they price it) for Wilder-Fury turns the US rights to the fight into $20m (£14.3m), which you can add the UK money from BT Sport Box Office, the site fee, and the other revenues.

A successful Wilder-Fury PPV basically ends all talk of Wilder simply taking what Joshua offers because the charade will be over; Wembley doesn't come close to matching the money coming from Las Vegas, and Wilder's market selling PPV for double what Joshua's market is ready to bear will dwarf Sky Box Office soon as well.

Behave yourself. Wilder doesn't make any serious money outside of Fury, Whyte and Joshua. His ticket selling is proof of this. It isn't all of a sudden going to shoot up at this point in his career.

[Stevenubbs]

This fight will happen in the next year, max. Oh, and only when Wilder starts talking sense as to how much money he wants. He's pricing himself out of the fight at the time being, but no one wants to make comment on that.

Just stopppppp educate yourself and then come back and comment. Y’all brits are looking real dumb right now following Eddie Hearn the snake blindly. Keep eating what he feeds you and you’ll be full of **** soon.

Stoppppp sellin tickets means **** all when you are Ppv... stop with your stadium bull**** just STOPPPPP

For all the accolades and acclaim that Anthony Joshua has achieved in the UK, it was Wilder's that offered him the $50m purse that he himself thought was so unseemly an amount of money that he'd take it with no question, and the offer even came with upside (in case it broke past Mayweather-Alvarez territory).

Maybe Eddie Hearn was bull****ting the entire time but if Joseph Parker was able to get a third of the event, the Wilder offer should've been 40% from the jump.

Eddie picked around, waited until Wilder was ready to take short money to prove a point, and then magically the WBA was no longer offering even a day more of an extension and Hearn was trying to lock in the **** fight terms for a future date and not the next fight (the reason why Wilder took the **** terms) with Joshua the only fighter with the rematch clause and Hearn dictating where Wilder could put the US TV.

For wasting all of that time, and trying to sully his name, I don't see 50/50 and a straight up fight (no rematch clause for anyone) as being a bad place to start, tbh.

And that's before you even get to the US TV

That huge offer was on the back of Joshua's success, not Wilder's. Wilder can't sell tickets and makes nowhere near to what Joshua does because he's a nobody. Trying to claim anything else is beyond delusion and wishful thinking on your part. Coming out with make-believe that Wilder is going to all of a sudden going to make millions and be in demand is something that doesn't exist in the real world, just your mind.
