    Wilder purse vs Breazeale??, Will he Stay with Showtime???

    I am not trying to make this a promoter vs promoter BS thread but it seems that Wilder can make more money with either DAZN or ESPN/ESPN +/Top Rank.

    I am just saying Hearn offered Wilder $15 million for the Breazeale, Whyte, Kownacki fight. I understand if Wilder wants to stay loyal to Haymon/Showtime but if they are not bringing him the money that he is being offered from different outlets it seems there can be a lot of friction. How far can Showtime dig in its pockets to keep Wilder??? I can see DAZN coming up with the most money to back a Joshua vs Wilder fight. I also think the Wilder vs Fury II fight ain't happening anytime soon now.

    Basically to sum it up how much do you think Wilder will get paid by
    Showtime/Haymon to keep him for a type of fight vs an opponent like Dominic Breazeale.

    I don’t think they can pay him anything more than 5m for those fights, unless they put those fights on PPV, and if it goes on PPV it has to sell well for them to be able to pay him 15m.

        They’ll pay him enough. He isn’t going anywhere.

          Shirley is a horrible advisor

          Wilder will earn 7-8m his next fight on showtime

                Wilder's resume and reputation can't sustain a loss. He's playing with fire not taking these paydays now.

                  They would never let him go. That WBC belt would be kept hostage by PBC, even if it means rejecting offers that represents 3 times his usual pay for the same fight. Without that belt he wouldn’t even get talked about. So I don’t blame them, fighting on another show means he wouldn’t get the sort of protection needed if required by him.

                    He will take less than what eddies offering, exactly like he did in his last two fights, dont know why ppl acting like this is new territory.
