    I know no regular network fights have a budget over around 4 mil. So Wilder making 3 might even be too much because they have to pay every other fighter on the card.

          do you go flat fee on a non ppv subscription model?

          oh youll charge 20 bucks for a month subscription? oh nice...so your gonna leave potentially 60 bucks a head on the table?

          so what if the 20 dollar price tag entices more viewers and it does 4 mil in subscriptions for the month? do the fighters, wilder in particular, get an upside cut?!?!?!

          nope! he doesnt....LOL....

          160 mil PPV, the provider takes half, so Wilder and Joshua split the remaining 80? So Wilder gets 40? How much money did he just turn down for 1 AJ fight?

            So you know more than the LA Times about the contract details?

            So Wilder parlayed a meeting last week with DAZN executive chairman John Skipper into a likely -- but unconfirmed – bump in purse from the original $12.5 million he was offered to fight Breazeale on Showtime

              It's common sense, do you really think DAZN are collecting gate money? It could be that they are paying for international rights to the countries they operate in as well but I'm sure it would exclude UK. It was a TV deal, not a fight offer. The same as Canelo's and the same as GGG's.

                do you know how a fight works? there is internation tv rights...sponorships...live gate money and merchandise....ppv is NOT the only source of revenue for a fight

                the fact that you dont know that much disqualifies you from speaking
                Thing is, your assuming the fight would generate 160m, it won't, the fact that you don't know that, disqualifies you from speaking.

                  Networks can't pay 12 mil for a fight on regular cable. Maybe that was when they had plans for PPV, it says unconfirmed right there.

                    and yes the fighters would be lucky to take half of the ppv revenue....but there is a live gate...which will do very well....there is merch....there are sponsors....lots of them....and of course international tv

                    and yes it can happen by fall/winter...aj is making the rounds now...he only needs this june fight to acclimate himself....hes already been known in the US....hes doing espn and radio here....hes done pressers for most of his fights in NY in the past.......it doesnt need much more time...by sept/oct it could do that figure
                    Shut up you deluded dummy wilder will never make that kind of money on showtime..even with fury they tried to say it was a megas fight and only did 300k...the market is not there for wilder and joshua to do 2 million ppv....ppv has been under performing since the over priced pacquaio mayweather fight and it aint gonna change and that is why HBO pulled the plug.
                    Canelo golovkin rematch only did 1.1 million buys and that was on a bigger channel HBO.
                    Wilder is unknown to the normal american in the street so stop talking a ****

                      its not common sense at all....far from it...you want it to be

                      finkel said they couldnt get a number on what AJ was gonna make...prob because they were gonna funnel upside to AJ ....but wilder was taking a flat....

                      it was a fight over...it was not a tv deal....show me where it was a tv deal.....you dont have that info or proof anywhere......you are just floating "common sense" so it sounds like you have a leg to stand on
