Wilder to DAZN a Done Deal?

[Scipio2009]

You are exactly right! Even if it is a 3 fight $100mil deal. There's no guarantee that Wilder would except or even entertain the thought or idea of fighting Joshua beyond 2019.

Copp is saying that Wilder fights Breazeale in May, Joshua fights Miller in June, and Wilder-Joshua happens later this year, with the rematch in 2020.

Are you arguing that Copp is bull****ting here?

[Scipio2009]

except he's not signing that deal.

Why the **** not?

Why the **** not?

"He's a complicated man. No one understands him but his woman..."

[KTFOKING]

It's for two fights and then maybe Joshua in 2020, lol (with the Joshua fight most likely having a rematch added to it).

If the rumored offer is true, it's actually a 4-fight, $50m guaranteed deal. Cong**** indeed.

Question; what is Wilder looking at if he simply follows his own plan, have his management talk to Joshua's management, and see if they can't get the basics of a deal shook on before bringing Hearn in?

The Breazeale fight is SHOPPV/ITV and at Barclays, and if the Joshua PPV doesn't happen in 2019, Wilder likely has Ortiz2 on SHOPPV/ITV and possibly with MGM Resorts (at the MGM Grand instead).

How much money would Wilder really be leaving on the table if he were to simply stage the two PPVs instead?

No, the offer Coppinger mentioned was three fights with Breazeale first and then two fights with Joshua.

Why the **** not?

there's no way a deal of that magnitude got done overnight. one day after they listened to dazn, they announced a fight presser for next tuesday. unless his team is truly incompetent, no way they would organize a presser without having the fight details and contracts signed. so there's no way they've nailed down the contract with breazelle, dazn, joshua, and others, all within 24 hours.

wilder-breazelle is on fox.

No, I am not saying that at all. However, it's up to Deontay Wilder whether or not to sign the deal or not. Who knows perhaps he'll take it? It's just like that old saying goes "Money talks" and "Bullshit walks". If he does decide to sign. I can't blame him. More power to him. It's a lot of money.

[champion4ever]

For $40m per fight? lol, ok

Let him take the money and fight then. It sounds just about right and fair. One can't blame him if he does accept the offer. However what happens, once Wilder KO their hero not once but twice? What will they say then?

Well spotted. And you could be right. The timing is a bit too short, didn’t think about that at all. If they are calling a presser to announce a fight in Tuesday then I would doubt its on DAZN.

Somehow Wilder will bank huge money for two easy fights and then walk away without fighting Joshua.
I dont trust Wilder in the slightest, he simply wont put himself in a position in which he knows he will get demolished by AJ with the world watching. Guy,'s a coward.

DAZN ain't paying Wilder that much money with no agreement for the Joshua fight.
