    2 way rematch clause with fight 2 in USA.
    If wilder loses.. fight 2 is 70/30 in AJ's favour.
    If wilder wins.. 50/50 in his favour.

    That offer has been upped from an original 65/35 all other things the same.

    60/40 is a fair split. Said first negotiations that Wilder deserved around 30-35%. The fight is now bigger after the Fury fight and what it did on PPV.

    However, if Wilder beats Fury in a rematch and it does more than double the buys the first fight did? Then he will get a 50/50 split or close to it.

    So yeah, these offers are fair, however it is clear Wilder's team is interested in getting the Fury rematch finalized and vice versa. Joshua will now have to wait to get either fighter.

        Surely they'll settle at closer to 55/45 or closer. No way they let it go to pursebids. Although that would be hilarious if Dazn got it. Imagine how smug Hearn would be. My goodness

          Eddie and AJ definitely need to be part of this event.

          After a brutal and bloody war, AJ climbs into the ring and starts talking shit.

                Eddie can't even win purse bids vs TR he ain't winning this one in the extremely unlikely chance it were to go to one.

                Thats Eddie's problem. He allegedly gots this pile of sexy DAZN money, but if he legit has it he's tighter with it than the notoriously tight wad-ish Arum is with his ESPN money.

                  Wilder and Fury are basically set to fight their rematch on a 50/50 split (from Las Vegas, on SHOPPV, and BT Sport Box Office; both will likely clear north of $15m on the rematch).

                  And that's without mention of who would get the US TV rights (Eddie Hearn thinks he's slick, lol).

                  Wonder where this offer was Fall 2018. Oh well; now Eddie has to hold his **** and wait. And he no longer has that "it has to be Wembley" cudgel either, lol

                    The order is for a 60/40 split unless negotiated prior for something different. You think wilder gives fury another 10 unnecessarily?

                    Both likely to clear north of 15 million in the rematch ? Cool.. equal to the guarantee hearn says wilder can have on top of the 40% split of the purse then.

                    As for US TV, hearns stated if wilder accepted the contract he's more than happy for showtime to bid on that fight. If showtime offered more money than DAZN, then US rights go to showtime. He's on record saying all of this yesterday.

                    Where was this offer in the fall? You mean before the value of deontay wilder went up, which Hearn also acknowledged?

                    You're saying

                    60/40 with a 15 million guarantee .
                    Guaranteed rematch in the states.
                    70/30 if he loses fight 1
                    50/50 if he wins fight 1
                    That's not a good deal for wilder?
                    That he makes more in a fury rematch?

                    Ooooohhh kaaaayy thennnn.....

                      The split on the purse bid is 60/40 Wilder, lol.

                      And Stephen Espinoza flaming Eddie Hearn on Twitter makes it pretty darn clear that your talk about any bid is silly.

                      A UK fight has a maximum value of $45m; that comes directly from Eddie Hearn. 40% of that is $18m. Context is key.

                      The $50m against 50% offer is still there for a US fight, and Wilder likely makes more money on that than taking the fight in the UK
