    i'm not the one being ****** here.
    I'm not talking about Mayweather making $75M gate I'm talking about big ppv fights in general in Vegas like Lennox Lewis doubling Wembley biggest gate ever and that's over 20 years ago

    You're definitely being ****** here

      Wilder fans were claiming Wilder-Fury was going to be in Vegas until it wasn't. Pulling out fantasy numbers for Wilder with nothing to back them up is ridiculous. Lewis was fighting American draws, fighters like Holyfield and Tyson who were 100x more known than Wilder. These comparisons are just insane.

        Wilder v Fury was weeks ago and still has buzz about it if you can't see the rematch is going to be massive I suggest you remove Hearn balls from your face


        Cheers

          Buzz for all the wrong reasons. It was a robbery. Massive? It's going to be nowhere near to Lewis-Tyson, it's ridiculous to even compare. You're in a fantasy world.

              I dont care who Wilder fights next as long as he shuts up with the excuses or at least stick to one. Pretty low class if you ask me.

                Lol it’s pointless trying to argue with someone in 3rd grade mentally. “No im not, you are!” “I know you are, but what am I?”

                Smh. We are talking about the worst, least skillful fraud of a wbc champ there ever was and this dude wants to talk about hall of fame boxers.
                Go have a seat somewhere.

                  Wtf is a 3rd grade mentally

                  You think wembley fight can match the amount of money a vegas fight would generate then obviously you don't know **** about boxing

                  Carl Froch sold 80K in Wembley and walked away with $12M purse and that's a record breaking number for UK Fight at the time it's basic math

                    Fury wilder would do simular ticket prices to against Klitschko and will risk not selling out.

                    Joshua wilder on the other hand will obviously increase prices and make a significant margin. The very cheapest tickets were £40 / $55 for Joshua klitschko but they were obviously the furthest away, ring side was several thousand. Against wilder for undisputed your probably looking at £60 minimum for the very cheapest, so. Average ticket price going to be closer to £150 or $190.

                    On tickets alone that would be $19 mil; but there is significantly more made from merchandise, food, etc.

                      It all depends how long he has to wait for the Fury rematch. However, if Fury waits too long and if Hearn and Joshua are ready to negotiate in good faith this time perhaps but I don't know. Wilder doesn't have faith in either one of them. I say he should fight Breazeale first as a tuneup and then wait on Fury for the rematch.
