    And yeah, definitely a fair bet he's not getting 20M vs Breazeale. But he's banking on winning and then getting the Joshua fight for even more than 40M. We will see if the risk pans out.

    And no, he's not losing luster even if he struggles. A fight the Undisputed HW title with two big punchers is going to sell big....BIG.
    I don't follow twitter. AJ KO'd Breazeale in 7. A previously inactive, out of shape, drug abuser and alcoholic gave Wilder hell. How does a loss or even a struggle against Breazeale not negatively affect him? When did Breazeale become a top-shelf fighter?

      he can still fight dazn fighters he doesnt need an exclusive contract all that is BS and you know it
      An exclusive contract for 3 fights is hardly a hardship. Bearing in mind fight 1 is on the doorstep it would be little over a year in length. And from what I've read he's signed his life away to Showtime anyway, probably for less money. How then can he fight on DAZN, who let's face it will have deeper pockets than Showtime for longer than the remainder of Wilder's career? Due to those deep pockets any attempt at Joshua's titles will be on DAZN in the USA.

        When did I say Breazeale was a top fighter?

        And you said all that about Fury and how Wilder struggled....Yet the Joshua fight is actually bigger than when they were first negotiating?

        The lure of two huge punchers fighting for the undisputed title will make that fight massive, regardless of if Joshua struggles vs Miller or Wilder struggles vs Breazeale.

          He signed his life away? Was this a multi-year contract or something? How many fights did he sign this deal for?

            Breazeale must be getting 5M$+ or surely he would go to purse (wbc = 35% for challenger).

                    Are you dumb
                    That some streaming service offered Wilder
                    $120m
