    It's the market value that demands and dictates it. It's pretty much the same way as the NBA .

      nobody knows wilder....he dont sell out 80k soccer stadiums

      just how is that dude getting 100 mil for 3 fights?!?!?

      wtf lol

      its like someone waved a magic wand and poooofffff....
      Who says Wilder is getting more than $12.5million for fighting Breazeale? Where did you get that number from?

        everyone says AJ has 3 belts...and hes the global superstar....so the pressure will be put on AJ...he cant run forever


        the beauty of this whole thing is wilder knows he doesnt have to give into DAZN and hearn.....

        hearn must have sharted his pants when he saw fury drop in that 12th!!

        wilder is getting paid....whether is from DAZN or not! believe that!
        You are either trolling there or legit deranged.

          Can't figure out what this thread is about coming from a Wilder defender and a PBC/SHO/Haymon/anyone associated, etc. fanboy.

          Wilder was making $1 million with PBC before Hearn came around. And we know that these defenders hate Hearn... hmmm...

          I'm very confused.

            I doubt Wilder will make $100m in those fights. His PPV didn’t do that well and he’s avoiding his biggest money match and Fury isn’t going to be available outside of ESPN.

            Wilder said “I will fight him for free” so his price was significantly less than Joshua’s $50m. He also admitted that Joshua and Hearn were begging him to fight. Surely if they are begging him they want it right? They are begging him and came up with $100m and the decision is up to Wilder and his decision was to decline it.

            Who do you think wants the fight the most right now?

            You can say that maybe Wilder wanted it more. At this moment it’s clear he has had a change of heart and no longer wants the fight.

            Do you think Wilder will make $100m in his next three fights avoiding Joshua?

            Are you happy that it seemed the fight was a “yes” from Wilder away from happening and he’s the reason it’s not because he declined?

            If so why are you happy he’s decided to not take his biggest challenge, payday and opponent? I don’t think you’d give a fighter you didn’t like the same benefit of doubt.

            Do you think it’s fair to say it’s possivle you have a bias and will always twist something to shed your favorite in better light and your least favorite in a worse light?
            the fight isnt/wasnt going to be next anyway.....right? they said he fight brezeale next on DAZN....

            whos to say that wilder cant fight brezeale wherever hed like and then come back to hearn and AJ when its done?

            wilder came up with this money....then took his crap offer but hearn couldnt give him the window he requested

            what if wilder says "lets go to the table" when hes done with brezeale? is he still ducking because hes not giving DAZN what they want?

                Povetkin was ranked 3? Parker was ranked 3? Klitschko? These are all very sellable fights. Whyte rematch remains a big fight. Miller is top 10 with a big mouth - very sellable.

                You can sell all those fights. Joshua, and particularly Hearn (to his credit) can sell these fights.

                Wilder's ability to sell fights is far lower, though better than it was pre Fury. He'll earn better money now, but needs Joshua or Fury to make big money.
                the boxing world wont let him wait him wait much longer...the boxing world learned from pac/floyd....and they put pressure on canelo to fight golovkin

                AJ will soon begin to feel the pressure....all the fights you listed are "sellable"......but they arent the matchup that wilder/AJ is.....not even close.....boxing wants/needs fights like aj/wilder....they dont need him rematching a guy he ko'd in whyte....klit aint coming back...he beat parker and povetkin....there aint a ton of intriguing fights left for him....maybe usyk and fury...thats about it

                  remember when hearn just came to him desperately trying to sign him for 100 mil?!?!?!? LOL
                  I can't get my head around where you coming from with this stuff. You just said, "AJ can't run forever. Sooner or later he will have to fight Wilder"

                  And now you're laughing and mocking because he is trying to fight Wilder!

                  If AJ is running, then why is his promoter offering Wilder $100million to fight him?

                      Are you fckn nuts?

                      Wilder turned DAZN's offer down. He won't be getting a dime from them unless he agrees to fight AJ too!
