[sicko]

Well the good news is that it is on Showtime and not PPV so that is a Positive

If Breazeale wins this could be the funniest ***** of all time.

[Ake-Dawg]

Did DAZN offer Breazeale a deal as well? Is he a free agent that can fight on any network? If not, how was the potential purse bid going to go down?

[Ake-Dawg]

If Breazeale wins this could be the funniest ***** of all time.

If Miller wins, this could be the funniest ***** of all time.

lol the 50 million is a myth. How have you not realized that by now?

No, no it's not. A myth is continue to talk about 50M when that became irrelevant the day Joshua decided he wanted the fight in the UK...Which he had every right to ask for.

[KTFOKING]

No they were not

This has been exposed on Twitter with rat boy telling the world the 50m was an email from wilder lmao

It’s why no contract could be provided, it was a way to avoid the fight

Wilder turned down 100m to duck
Joshua as well as other offers

It’s official

Nowhere to hide and no more fake news

We shall see. Don't think anything has happened recently to prevent that fight from happening.

[Straightener]

So Wilder turned down 120 mil to earn 2/3 on regular Showtime. What a ****ing genius.

He needs to ask for a major refund from all his managers for this one

This is great for fans don't have to pay PPV. Showtime heard all the complaints when it leaked that it was going to be on PPV. And frankly it would of bombed and been a bad look for Wilder. But I don't see how this is good for Wilder because the reason they were planning PPV was to help bridge the gap closer between the 12M offer from ESPN. With PPV and a big name opponent Wilder only got a 7M paycheck. Without PPV Wilder's carer payday was 1.9M against Ortiz. DAZN almost doubled what ESPN was willing to pay for the Breazeale fight. No way he is now getting anything close to 20M or even 12M now. And he takes all the risk.

You are gullible as hell. The 50 million never existed.

You are gullible as hell. The 50 million never existed.

Hearn admitted it was real, but said Joshua preferred to fight at home for less.
