      This outdated Marination/PPV model needs to die a quick death. It might be financially beneficial to a select minority, but its clearly hurting boxing as a whole. We don't get to see the fights we want, when we want (if at all), just because networks are protecting their boxers from taking risks in fear of potentially losing out on that one big pay day, years after the fights sell by date. Or in fear of conceding power to rival networks.

        Well you have to also consider that a Wilder would also be getting hugely overpaid to fight Breazeale as part of the bargain, not to mention that there’s a second 40 million guaranteed even if he were to lose in the first 10 secondsof the fight, not to mention that it’s a shot at becoming undisputed which is what his focus really should be.

        Besides that, how much did Wilder make in his mega-fight with Fury?

          Maybe he’s allergic to money?

            These Haymon fighters turn loyalty into a vice. It is insane the huge amounts of money they always turn down to stay with Haymon. There reasoning is they will stay with Haymon because he made Mayweather the richest fighter ever and he will do the same with them. But these guys are not Mayweather, they do not have the skills or talent of Mayweather. Also, Haymon has been in control of these fighters careers for almost a decade and how many have become pay per view stars, 0. How many have been making more than $10 million a fight, 0. How many make $6million per fight,0. How many have become boxing cross over stars, 0.

            And Wilder is already almost 34 yrs of age. If he has not become a star yet, he never is going to be one. None of his fighters are known outside of boxing and he has had 10 years to make at least 1 of his fighters a star, get Mayweather type money, or do successful pay per views. Haymon is the biggest con man in boxing. The only difference between him and Don King is he went to Harvard.

              People hate Arum, but he has done a better job with his top fighters Crawford and Loma than Haymon has done with his top few fighters and in less time too.

                Lol Arum just infuriated the nationalist biased fast Eddie Hearn/dazn fan base. If you’re not careful Bob you too will become public enemy #1 on the council estate/chav 10 most wanted list too

                    Another crooked trilogy in the works same as GGG Canelo with crooked decisions and crooked fighters. Wilder's arm was "not working right" in the Fury fight thats why Wilder couldnt KO Fury lol crooked WWE boxing. Wilder carried Fury and then a crooked draw decision same as Canelo GGG fight. They even say it will be a trilogy in advance lol. Do they have a crystal ball?

                      Arum has been ****ting on DAZN and Hearn for months. They're competing for subs. Are we forgetting ESPN offered Wilder a much worse deal? Are we also forgetting Hearn offered a 40% split before the DAZN deal too?
