    Both Wilder and Joshua are fighting in New York in their next fights. We'll see the difference. AJ is fighting an undefeated New Yorker too.

      They can pay whatever they want. Their just gonna lose money. If you really think Wilder turned down 20 million to fight for 3 then you’re dumber than I thought.

        He's a complete imbecile. Every source I've heard talk about it says that Wilder is getting the same or a little less than what DAZN was offering to fight Breazeale. Showtime actually have a successful business with years of profits and millions on millions of subscribers. They can afford to pay Wilder as opposed to DAZN who's "hemorrhaging money".

          You know those Brits really love hard. It’s the same when they hate.

            You're not a dumb poster.

            Joshua is more popular than Wilder.

            Joshua brings in more money than Wilder.

            Joshua has more belts than Wilder.

            You must AT LEAST see that Wilder doesn't deserve the 50% right?

              Ofcourse he does. He just refuses to come out and say it.

                Didn't he said that he wants to be undisputed champ? It's always about the money, nothing more.

                  I'm slowly starting to break down because they keep coming back with it. Why should one group that puts in more effort and backing be rewarded the same split as somebody who's sitting back waiting for it to happen? There must be some sort of justification for why it should be that way but I can't see it.

                    Joshua's tickets are 3x the price. Wilder better have a much higher attendance or it's going to be embarrassing.

                      No they aren't if he was worthy of a high purse he'd be PPV. Common sense. They could make a TV series that would get much higher viewers than Wilder for 8 figures. Stop being ******ed.
