    You failed to mention a single source that establishes Wilder’s cut of the pie, if any worth mentioning, on those UK numbers. Hell, start by mentioning at least one source that confirms they made over $20 million on UK PPV revenue.

      I'm referring to the quite public terms of 35% and guaranteed $20M on a twi fight deal. Sure there was a deal offered for which Hearn said there was a percentage. When were these terms made public?

        How? Wilder appeals to a large amount of african americans..including myself. Why do other fans try to play this game like black people don't watch or support boxing? You do know the most popular boxers are typically black right? If I went to Montana and asked five random people to name 5 boxers 4/5 of them would be black.

          Hearns such a bitter Hater on anything he’s not associated with

          The event generated probably in the neighbourhood of 35+ million dollars when it’s all said and done

          That has to be pretty good when you consider Wilder is a nobody in the States according to Hearn and it was his first PPV

              That’s what I’m saying. The user is trying to bait you because those offers were made before wilder fought fury (they were in camp) so of course wilder said no. And it worked, Hearniacs can call duck

                $79.99 vs. What like $15.99??
                It's more like $30-32 for AJ PPV's.

                His PPV's are cheaper but people need to understand, he does around a million almost every time he fights. He also sacrifices further PPV buys through fighting in huge stadiums. He could easily fight in the O2 which has something 20k capacity I think, maybe less and jack up the prices for each ticket. It will be sold out within seconds.

                Wilder just hasn't got a proper fanbase. Fury has a decent fan base and he will continue to grow a lot. Wilder not so much.

                  No that's bull****. Everyone knows that the Mexicans are boxing mad, and get behind their star boxers and watch all their fights, much more so than Americans these days. Nice try Joshua groupie.

I say it as it is. I expected wilder to splatter fury. Everyone knew fury’s gameplan yet wilder could not adjust.

                    Wilder stands more chance beating joshua no way we can duck those right hands all night but you better believe every right hand you miss you are likely to be knocked out
