    The top four heavyweights are all in that situation. If Joshua comes to the US and loses to Big Baby for 30 million, he'll feel like an idiot for not fighting Wilder for 50 million.

    If Fury loses his tune up on ESPN, he'll feel like an idiot for not taking 20 million to fight Wilder in a rematch.

    If Wilder loses to Breazeale, he'll feel like an idiot for not taking 22 million to fight Joshua.

    If Dillian Whyte loses his next fight, he'll feel like an idiot for not taking 6.5 million to fight Joshua.

      For sure, if he beat AJ in a mandated fight he could dictate his own terms for a rematch, but that's a hell of a big if. I think he made a mistake turning that last offer down.

      Fighters should focus on their own money, instead of being obsessed with what the opponent is getting, and turning down career high offers because the other guy is getting much more than them.
      I wasn’t aware of that. He should’ve took that deal imo. Yeah like I said it’s a ballsy move to turn down that money over a rematch that probably won’t happen.

      I agree fighters should be more concerned on what they’re making in comparison to previous fights rather than what their opponent makes

        You should've just stopped at your first point which is another lie. Joshua will make money no matter who he fights even if he wasn't a champion. He cannot go down to 2 million dollar fights like Wilder and since Wilder went into hiding thinking he had Fury ,miller is the next option to go to N.Y, i thought you were a promoter ,shouldn't you know all this ? Ha

        The deal of 50 million has been debunked over 100 times on here ,so why lie daily on here ?

          That's what I was trying to tell you in your thread. Those are the figures I estimated to what I think they would be, which would indicate Whytes decision not to take that fight is insane really.

            I could understand the principle of turning down the fight if the rematch stipulated that as the champ he’d earn less but 50/50 is fair considering he’s a voluntary so has no obligation to have a shot and he’s earning a better split than he would as a mandatory. Strange decision. Hopefully it doesn’t haunt him.

              If Joshua comes to America in his next fight and loses, you don't think he'll wish he fought Wilder instead for way more money? Use your head. All four of the top 4 heavyweights are betting on themselves right now by delaying their cash out fights. All of them will feel ****** if they lose before the big showdown.
