Comments Thread For: Wilder: Long Relationship With SHO, I Consider Them My Family

[Noelanthony]

Excellent article. There something to be said for both loyalty as well as being in control of one’s own career. Steady on Deontay, steady on.

Al Haymon, Winkle,Wilder and his entourage all went to visit John Skipper at Dazn to exercise their loyalty. That weasel Finkel kept asking “ how much is AJ is getting” just to show just how loyal they were willing to be. You Wilder fans crack me up. He didn’t take the money out of loyalty or he didn’t want to be tied down? Make up your mind

In order for Wilder to turn down those offers he must be getting paid more than DAZN and Top Rank offered. I doubt he just leaves that kind of money on the table for less just because you're "loyal"

'Loyalty'

Lololololol

[Ake-Dawg]

I can understand he wants control over his career but if his main reason for turning down the DAZN money was loyalty to Showtime then I gotta say that unless he got something in writing from Showtime which guaranteed him a certain amount of money wether he wins, loses, or draws then he's one ****** motherfuccer!
Boxing is a business and there's no loyalty when it comes to dealing with large corporations like Showtime and CBS!
I'm no hater and I want Wilder to make his money but I hope he doesn't end up regretting his decision...

It's really just one fight that's a risk and it's the Breazeale fight. Which, if he loses he loses the 80M+ for Joshua in all likelihood. Thus, he is really only ******** with the diff between what he gets for the Breazeale fight (purse plus what Bombzsquad Promotions makes) and $20M.

It's because he's dumb, not loyal.

Should've took the deal. 100M, take out AJ and Fury would've came back to the table.

Never seen so many idiots crying about NOT having to pay a PPV.Who cares where he fights interim fight??No muti fight deal YET and any would have "outs" according to Finkel who in this instance I believe because it would be dumb as fu ck to say that and give away BEST EXCUSE to avoid fight(with AJ) if that's what they plan to do.He now cant say later that "no fight unless with SHOW/FOX" do you hear the other two saying anything like that????And its not like its his fault we are not getting Fury rematch Fury came right out and said NO NEXT FIGHT how fricken hard is that to understand?Now after this fight which he has NO CHOICE but to fight because Fury ducked rematch(even if he signed with ESPN still NO NEXT FIGHT)and its a mandatory he needs to make offer for a FOX PPV or if money is better then accept DAZN offer.Nothing has changed as their was NEVER a chance at AJ next because in case some of you forgot by time Fury PULLED OUT of fight AJ was already signed to Miller.Now after this fight(again no choice)he signs to fight Kownecki or other PBC guy for less money then he will have ducked fight like aj did when he turned down 50 mil offer and then used excuse that "he owed it to the UK fans"but then went and signed to fight Miller in USA.And Fury....well nothing more needs to be said.

Other than paragraph your posts if you feel the need to ramble on. Also why are you shouting??

[Jsmooth9876]

The people bashing wilder simply want him to join dazn because they want dazn to take over American boxing and out PBC out of business. Proof? They never EVER mention top rank and ESPN or it’s fighyers

No, Dummy, we want to see the fight and preferably not have to pay $85 to do so. We don't give a fk about PBC or DAZN, ESPN, or anyone else. We are just sick of politics, promoters, ducking, and excuse after excuse why fights aren't happening when they should be.

Put your victim card back in your wallet for the evening

[IRONCHINHAGLER]

Lol....like ppv was ever considered for this crap mismatch!! So freakn laughable...would have bombed under 100k and Showtime knows it!! Only Ppv Wilder gets is bc of Fury or Aj. Wilder is so unpopular hr in US!
