    I'm not claiming to know what he made, but I know the economics make it very clear it wasn't over $30 million. Just like I'm not claiming to know how often you have sex, but it's clear from your posting style it isn't very often.




    I know how fight economics work. I've promoted thousands of fights. I know how much his PPVs cost in the UK. I know what the typical split is with the distributor. I know what his split is with Hearn. I know the ballpark range for what his PPVs do. Simple math makes it very clear his purse isn't over $30 million.

    The fact that you find this so upsetting is very disturbing. You have no idea what he makes, but for some reason the idea that it's not more than $30 million made you outraged. Completely bizarre.
    Just out of interest, you’ve promoted thousands of fights or cards?

      Haymon knows this sport (Floyd signed the largest sports contract under Haymon, Canelo/Floyd, Pac/Floyd 250mil +, McTappout vs Floyd 250 mil + PBC, Showtime/CBS/and WE HAVENT MENTIONED IS SIDE GIG, has proven this FACT: Wilder has went from flat fee to possibly over 50%.............OBVIOUSLY he's doing something right

        I got confused, y'all talking about DAZN, Sky, or both?

          Lets be honest.....if Povetkin got between 25-30mil, then that flat fee offer of 15 mil to WILDER was a farce pulled over the Brit fans of trying to make a fight, when we see it, people will realize how much of a joke, the car salesman was trying to pull. AJ fans are the side against this knowledge and DW fans are the ones wanting to know.

              We would need to also know the international rights for the 120+ countries the fight was sold to.

                    OBVIously i know exact number we but a number of people have spoken about it, his income is far more than most for a fight:

                    UK Ppv
                    DAZN USA and other DAZN countries
                    Other international (believed Russia contributed significantly towards this one?)
                    Sponsorship deal
                    Gate money

                    Not many other boxers at the moment demand that sort of figure but joshua is one of them. AJ has his own promotional deal AJ boxingnfor his own fights which get higher % than the usual fighter would get beyond his normal guarantees

                      1.1 million PPV buys comes out to 28.5M USD. After Sky takes their share and, assuming a 70-30 split, AJ gets 9M USD.

                      Gate was likely around 13M USD, which would net AJ another 9M USD.

                      Maybe DAZN threw him another 2M USD for international rights.

                      And then sponsors, of which I don't think there's public info, but just for fun let's say 2M USD for fight night.

                      Which would come out to 22M USD total.
