    Dunno what that has to do with fair. A fair fight is held on neutral ground with judges who'd rather see both lose then either win.

    And a 75/25 split to the winner.

      have the fight on a naval landing strip at international waters with 3 judges, all of whom have been kidnapped from random countries and kept hostage "Oldboy style" for 7 years watching nothing but boxing matches for 12 hours a day and learning a strict regiment of how to judge, and the winner takes 100% of the purse while the loser gets shot into space via canon.

        I feel like 60/40 AJ and fight is at Wembley, and rematch for Wilder on same terms in his favour in a USA rematch if he wins in UK.

        What would be fair here?
        Basically. It only changes if Wilder beats Fury in a barnburner then it might go up 55-45.

          putting belts on the line happens now without having "one big promoter".

            Wilder will be the new money man if his fight with Fury does well, but he won't treat Joshua the same way. He will propose a 50/50 split to RESPECT the fact that Joshua is a champion. Fury will be the same way if he beats Wilder. Hell, that's how Wilder-Fury got made in the first place! Once Joshua develops that mindset, wanting to challenge himself against primed fighters, wanting to be undisputed, instead of flexing his muscle as the money man, we'll have an undisputed fight. Until then, Joshua will go his way and Wilder and Fury will go theirs. No worries... The heavyweight lineage will be in good hands...

            But Joshua is preventing this fight from happening, disrespecting his fellow champions with this A-side/B-side nonsense.
            Wilder won't ever make good money outside of Fury, Whyte and Joshua. He needs these opponents because without them he stays making the 2 mill or less he always has.

            Fury isn't a champ so why would Joshua respect him as one? Just because you want to make his fight with Wilder a lot more than it is won't fly in the face of facts and reality, no matter how delusional you become.

            As for Wilder, you think having a title allows you to ask for half against the biggest star in boxing? No title holder outside of America was even close to being this delusional when being in big fights. They took what they were worth and got on with it. Had they asked for ridiculous amount of money, Americans would have laughed. Not one of them would support a Maidana against a Mayweather in asking for money beyond their worth. They were sane you see. Maidana never got offered 15 mill, it was about 3 mill. And he was more proven and a bigger star than Wilder will ever be. So get with the program because you're just boring me now with your madness.

              Please show us what Joshua's filed purse with the government is.
              Then you can show mw how much Wilder and co get paid, right?

                The fact is that Wilder has two wins over consensus top three fighters. Joshua doesn't have any. So even though Joshua's resume is stronger over all, it's hilarious when AJ fans say Wilder hasn't fought anybody considering Wilder is the only one of the two that has faced top 3 fighters.
                Ask the worlds leading experts? you mean a bunch of jokes?

                I knew you couldn't justify it because it's a load of ****. Stiverne is a bum, and Ortiz hasn't proven jack ****. Ortiz should be below the top 5, and Stiverne should have been at number 10 due to having a title, but no higher.

                  A two fight deal, a 60/40 split of the percentages in the favor of each fighter's venue and a guaranteed purse.

                    Nobody knows for sure what Wilder and company get paid. UK fans go by the filed purses to minimize Wilder's position, but they never show us AJ's filed purses.

                      Thank you for your opinion. The people who make their living studying and analyzing boxing disagree with you strongly.
