Comments Thread For: Joshua's Promoter: The Sole Focus, 100%, is Wilder Fight in April

Are you kidding me?

In its entire history, Tesla has sold maybe 100000 vehicles, and yet their market cap is near Ford and GM. Present value of future cash flows isn't some new concept, lol.

So your saying tesla makes as much turnover each year as ford do ?
Wilder is not a tesla car more like a trabant ffs

Doesnt Fury/Wilder have rematch clauses???

Few quick things; U.S. PPV is worth 3 to 4 times Skysports PPV, so Wilder vs. Fury only needs to make over 300k views and they eclipse anything AJ has done monetarily. Venues in America charge high prices for boxing events, so a 16k venue in America is not that far off the revenue of an 80k arena in the UK. You need to do some research on the Wilder numbers you put up. Barclays closed the upper level and mezzanine for Wilders fight, which leaves the seating at just over 12k, Wilder's fight sold that out and the demands were so high, barclays had to open up the mezzanine and offer more tickets. This has happened a few times. Venues almost never change the seating arrangement for a fight, it's un-heard of, but Barclays did it for Wilder. Barclays is also extremely hard to sell out, not even Cotto sold it out when he fought there. To expect Wilder to sell out Barclays is quite frankly ridiculous. Wilder is the biggest draw for Showtime, beats every fighter in the ratings. Over 2.5 million when he fought on Fox. He's the most popular American heavyweight in probably the last 20 years. Wilder is probably one of the most popular American fighters right now.

This goes back to what I have been saying for a while, people need to stop comparing UK , and US popularity. They are vastly different. By US standards Wilder is on track to be the second or third most popular fighter in the US.

And I don't understand why AJ fans continue to bring up popularity. It's clear his fans don't understand how US boxing works, and all I've seen is that Wilder fans have conceded that AJ is more popular, they have conceded the A-side, I'm at a loss why this continues to be brought up.

Well said. Now drop the mic and you’re free to log off. You’ve done your job for the day. Most these people only understand opinions. Facts and numbers are foreign to them

[Ake-Dawg]

yeah and they make that evaluation on the market value of each fighter and what they will bring to the table.
In layman terms joshua is a proven seller and wilder is not....simple facts

One day you will understand. Today is not that day. You dont look at each fighter individually. You look at them together. The market value of the fight....not the two individuals.

[Biolink]

Discussions start at a % to Wilder's team if Hearn wants to make it happen. Who is he crapping the way this fight is marinating right now you'd have to be blind to not think it wouldn't be huge.

what f@ckin planet are you on ? Sky ppv is 30 dollars so if its 3 or 4 times that much its going to cost 90 to 120 dollars......yiu dont have scooby what your on about.
I doubt this ppv is no more than 60 dollars and no way are us buyers goint to pay much more for that...plust half of the us ppv will go to the cabel provider which then will bring it down to $30 dollars ppv revenue for showtime.
So no 300k will not amount to 1.2 million sky box office receipts.
And no the gate receipts are not going to be high because its not mayweather , pacquaio or canelo dimwit because if they tey and hike the prices up the arena willl be half empty
There is no demand for these boxers which means there be no high supply.
Wake the f@ck up man

[Pennsauken1]

so where is the 50 million coming from.
Stop with this ****** talk , there was no contract , no venue , no date.
Zilch just an email so stop trying to make it sound like there is.
I live in reality you don't and what i see is wilder wanting more than he is worth.
But no probs let wilder fight fury and we will see how good it sells.
I have a feeling your going to be very disapointed when you see how poorly this fight does at the box office.
Fury is very mediocre over here because he is not entertainment and wilder is not a ppv star.
Joshua is the main draw of the divsion bar none

While your at it, get AJokes balls out your mouth, you prick

One side makes more and the other don't and that is where the A-side and B-side came from.
Leonard made 11 million dollars and thomas hearns made 8 million.
Mayweather made 200 million and pcquaio made 100 million
Canelo made 22 million khan made 14 million.
Now has that got through to your thick skull
Joshua is the A-side and wilder is the B-side

Plus a PPV in the christmas month featuring a fighter who has never boxed on PPV and is obcure to joe public facing an ex coke head who has looked appalling in his two comeback fights and could not stop his last opponent who was ranked 136 and got stopped by kevin johnson in the fight before.
Donald trump needs to promote this fight along with yeti to make this fight sell.
Bombbbbbbbbbbb
