    We know that Hearn thinks the Wilder v Joshua fight is around $100m according to him and many scribes.We know that Hearn offered Wilder $15m (15%) We know Mandatory challengers get 25% We know the fight is a unification .We know Wilders team offered Joshua the $50m he asked for.We know that Joshua then refused.We know it's crazy ****** to start talking about a event that Hearn has planned for April until the dust has settled from the big one on Dec 1st.We know where the other $85m going to go.

    We know the Hearns along with Joshua don't want any part of Wilder unless they get to pocket the $85m between them.

    There's a lot we know, what we don't know is why people still choose fiction over fact!

        I’d typically will always go with the top crop old school fighters over the top crop new school guys any day. Hearn beats Spence and Leonard beats FLoyd. Clearly, Jack Johnson beats any heavyweight of any era. The further u go back, the tougher they were, must be the poison in our food, air and water supply .

        Cause JAck Johnson losing his first fight, we’ll into his forties, after about 30-something rounds in 100+ degree weather, basically bare knuckle, is not even possible today.

            And I’ve already gave props to Lennox. So although this ain’t no MLA college paper, I’ll still need u to cite more than 1 source to validate your position or debunk mine, thx !
            Your argument is dead on arrival though. But kudos to you for at least putting your thoughts down.

              Agreed.....Hearns knocks out Spence who is not that difficult to nail.....Ray beats Floyd more than likely on points having had him in his shell all night...

                Edwina is an aholes ahole. Talk about grasping at straws. Whomever wins Wilder-Fury will be the one that the fans want to see. Personally, if it were me and I won, I would say I don't want to hear s**t from you unless it's at least 45 percent, or lose my ***** number. Wilder or Fury would make as much money as they wanted without Edwina until she was willing to be reasonable. AJ'S fans would want that fight and no other.

                    Sure Eddie.

                    Just like DAZN was taking over.

                    Just like you were signing everyone to Dazn.

                    Eddie is a moron. Its why DAZN has already replaced him with Golden boy.

                      So who will Wilder fight after Fury if not AJ

                      Originally posted by Mrbamladen
                      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.
                      and who will Wilder be fighting if AJ is fighting all the top Heavies. Will Wilder earn big money for each fight after Fury, as the Fury Fight is his first hopefully bigger pay day. Then what, Wilder v Ortiz 2...Wilder will be in the same boat except he will be earning less money again. Lets hope Fury, Wilder and AJ all get to fight each other.
