    $32m from the US TV rights, call it £6m/$8m from the UK TV rights (£15 on BT Sport Box Office, for 750k homes, with half going to outside parties), $5m from the live gate, and you've just generated more money in LA than 90k were able to draw for Joshua-Klitschko at Wembley.

    And that's before you count event sponsors, merch, Canadian/Mexican TV money , the rest of the international TV, etc.

    Unless you have some source where Eddie Hearn has the offer of 50/50 if Wilder does 500k PPV buys (@$75/$65, you're basically talking about $17m for the US rights; add up all the pieces and Wilder would likely be looking at a $30m pot), you should probably STFU.
    None of what Eddie Hearn had to say about a 50/50 split has anything to do with how many ppvs Wilder-Fury is going to do LMAO. Mayweather-Berto did 390k buys and Floyd is way way way more well known than either of these guys. These guys aren't doing 500k buys either. Again Showtime has stated they would be very happy with 350k buys so it is you who needs to STFU.

    1 million buys you made everyone in here die laughing. I live close to LA and I haven't seen one billboard about the fight. It isn't be promoted very much. SMH moron.

      If you honestly think that 5000 tickets are being comped, you're a fool
      We'll see on Saturday, now won't we. If you honestly think that 15000 tickets are being sold, your'e the biggest fool on this site.

      You do know they can slash the prices on those thousands and thousands of seats on Stubhub. Wilder can also come through and buy a bunch of tickets just like Floyd and Manny do all the time in Vegas. Both of them would buy over 1 million worth of tickets for their fights

And as far as wilder goes, he holds no special place in my heart. he is on equal ground as Aj as far as I'm concerned. I respect them both fully as warriors. And i respect and support them both. And thata abou where it ends.. neither one of them are special. both entertaining though. but some guys are happy and reporting that the event wont be a success.. it's like a certain crowd wants the ppv to bomb because it will affect the aj fight. let's hope wilder does well and this event lead to a even BIGGER fight between the 2 next.
        Wilder needing the top guys to make his first ppv speaks volume of his popularity and acceptance among the US fans.
        They prefer to watch him on showtime for free.

          hell they hardly watch then, Showtime costs.i don't think anyone can argue the sad state of America's love for boxing, which is a direct cause of fighters lack of popularity.. And to be honest if an America wants to start watching the sport wilder would be the last guy i would show them, because of his rawness

            Nevertheless, I like AJ, Wilder, fury and a couple of other HW's.
            Sometimes when I write in favor of AJ, some guys here think I am just an AJ fan. I love all these guys. They are warrior's and they entertain us and gives something to talk about.

            Let the best man win dec1.

              It seems as soon as you mention a fighters name for anything positive you're locked on as a FAN boy and can't like anyone else or you're a flip flopper. I like everybody foe the most part, I so I can get behind your statement. cheers to the best man winning

                    Hopefully by Dec 2, we will have action events, talking points and highlights to talk about as usual.
