Comments Thread For: Wilder's Team Have 'No Desire' For New Meeting on Joshua Deal

[doom_specialist]

Did i just read correct ? So you have one champion who is making $20 million a fight and the other champion making $2 million....both hold a share of what is known as the richest prize in sport so yeah for a nation that has a proud history of rewarding there heavyweight champions and making them into sporting icons its pathetic
Are you ****ing serious ? Lol
As for holding up the fight wilder is the only one running away from this fight because he has a firm offer sitting on his or his managers desk offering him a fight for 7 times his highest purse all signed and sealed by joshua with all the amended terms that your lame ass useless champion asked for.
I wish this fight gets made in april because when joshua knocks that skinny legged **** spark out all you wilder dimwits are gonna run for the hills out of shame.
Its coming don't you worry about that

A firm offer isn't a contract. The last one that got sent had no date or location, and now Joshua's team won't even draw one up unless Wilder agrees BEFORE what is potentially the biggest fight of his career. But Wilder is holding this up. OK dude.

I used to see Mayweather fans justify why Pacquiao should have taken $40M flat. His resulting pay is why your argument is ridiculous. Sure, Mayweather could have screwed him and earned his $32M guarantees into retirement, but then he doesn't make $225M on the big one, so it makes sense to give Pacquiao $100M. Like Pacquiao, Wilder shouldn't get the lion's share, but as a required piece of a large event, he should be paid what he's worth, and that includes a percentage of profit. Again, Joseph Parker got 33%, and he's offering Wilder 0%. Your wannabe retorts will never conceal that.

I'm a boxing fan first and foremost, and I see one side of this negotiation making boxing not happen. You clowns can play your partisan BS, but leave me out. Whether Wilder wins or loses doesn't matter as long as I get a fight between 2 guys that should be fighting.

Then why not just offer 35% and get the fight made? There really is not excuse not to offer the % split based on that logic alone.

We don't often see over here split fights i think thats more a us thing.
When joshua faced klitchcko they both made the same.
Joshua brought in the PPV in the uk and klitchcko brought in the german PPV.
Even parker he got a flat fee as well there was no percentage.
I hope they do negoitate a percentage now because this fight has to get made for the sake of boxing.
But if wilder has signed himself up to a rematch with fury he has short changed himself bigtime especially if he wins easy and he still has to fight fury again.
But wilder wants 50% now but he is not worth that....60/40 is a fair offer to get this fight made

Sorry my bad ...a contract signed by joshua on the amended terms that wilder requested...that is sitting on wlders table waiting to be signed

All Finkel has to do is send an alternative draft contract to Matchroom then both sides have somethingto go on.

But what is happening here is that Wilder's value varies according to how he beats Fury. If he blows Fury out early his negotiating position is enhanced (or likely should be). If lets say he gets a disputed points win then Matchroom will say that not only are they not equals at the box office but they're not even equals on a sporting level.

Both Harn and Finkel expect Wilder to blow out Fury. (me too) That is why Hearn wants to wrap it up now and Team Wilder prefer to wait.

[JWHardin]

This is the thread of AJ ****riders... No point in arguing with people that are this delusional and obsessed. A lot of these people are literally H0mo for Joshua so obviously they will defend him until the end of time.

You are exactly right. Hearn could come up with a new offer of half what he originally offered, and the knuckleheads would defend that as a fair offer, and more than Wilder deserves.

I am amazed that people can be so blinded. They are worse than the *******s several years back. At least they had a logical argument occasionally.

How you guys can lie for the sake of people you've never met is beyond me.

Initially, Parker's side demanded 40 percent, with Hearn offering a fraction of that figure. Although Higgins declined to give the precise percentage split the sides agreed to, he said it was between roughly two thirds of the pie for the Joshua side and a third for the Parker side.

"It's between 30 and 35-ish percent for the Parker side," Higgins said. "I'll leave it at that for now, but it's somewhere close to the middle of that. Maybe after Eddie and I talk about it, we will make the figure public."

Here you go fella

[Robbie Barrett]

Wilder has a fight in Dec. (No offence but fucc April)
After he destroys Fury then the negotiations should take place.
(Same thing IF Fury hugs out a win)

Joshua will be ordered to fight a mandatory before then. So no, it needs to be agreed before to prevent a mandatory being ordered.

All the interviews i have ever seen hearn say regarding parkers purse hesrn said it was a lot less than 40% and he just spoke in numbers and he said parker earnt less than 6 million which he said is over half the amount wilder has been offered.
Lok i don't lie for anybody i want this fight made and to get this fight done hearn needs to offer hima percentage and i say 60/40 is fair.
In fact i kight even write hesrn a message and say to him for gids sake just give wilder a percentage and rematch clause and the winner then gets the 60/40 share.
But your man wants 50/50 and that is not going to happen because is not worth it...fact
