Comments Thread For: Hearn: If Wilder's PPV Does Bad, He Has Zero Bargaining Position!

[Mrbamladen]

Not alot to pick holes on here... If it does 4/500k then give the guy 60/40 in AJ's favour.

If it does less then look at 35/65. Don't go less be sure the fight will never be made.

If the fight does 300k or less which it won't.. it'll do more, then don't offer a ****ing 80/20 split because that's a straight duck from Hearn.

Article seems to be a bit behind the times on what's been offered to wilder. He's had more than 15 and a percentage offered now.

What's the percentage???

300k is about what Showtime is expecting. They said they would craap their pants if it did 350k

keep it real

Fury beats Wilder on points, many more jabs and combinations landing for Fury, Wilder swinging & missing too much.

If wilder vs fury does 1m buys....... he easily gets 50-50. He could get 60-40 like he said. Aj doesn't matter at all outside of the UK. His best amount of views for Showtime was only about 300k. It's already been proven that the big money is here in America. Aj vs klitschko was the biggest fight out there and didn't even make more at the gate than Hopkins vs calzaghe. The A side game has bit Hearn in the @$$. Now he's gonna be stuck crying about a wilder fight while feeding the UK fans...... aj vs whyte 2, aj vs Miller, aj vs usyk, and the big one.....aj vs pulev. Wilder is about to become the wbc and lineal champion. He will be the man to beat come December 2nd. Aj will be just a belt holder hiding in the UK.

Harm and aj forget that they need an opponent to fight. Can't box himself. So if it's 50/50 or 60/40 then pay it. Your get nothing credibility or money from shadow boxing potential opponents

Why don’t you go hide in a Queenland hole, you bum

[Bronx23]

I been seeing some insane projections for what this fight is gonna do. I think it does 275k Max. Ward Kovalev only did like 175k and I dont see Wilder and Fury being known that more more than those 2. Anyone that believes this fight does a million PPV buys is on crack. & I'll glady eat crow if my prediction is way off

Eddie ***** and AJoke are not popular in US, Eddie ***** is on a empty Seat American roll, and AJoke can’t crack 100,000 views in US, those 2 UK bums can stay in the Queenland

Gates don't prove much if the ticket prices are through the roof ... the Mayweather/McGregor gate was ridiculous yet the touts made big losses trying to shift tickets for it. British cards and British PPV's tend to cost significantly less because they want fans to turn up, not just fake ass celebrities and whoever else "has" to be there. When was the last time a combat sports event in the US had over 80,000 fans in attendance? if the UK raised their prices the way that the US does, we'd see a drop in attendance like we have in other sports that got too greedy.

The Wilder-Fury PPV is horribly priced (as are the tickets) and the undercard is pretty terrible too ... they aren't expecting real boxing fans to turn up in the tens of thousands so they're relying on the money whales and celebrity status of the event to get them all paid.
