Comments Thread For: Wilder: I'll Repeat, Only Way Joshua Fight Happens is 50-50 Split!

[Ogecca MaMa]

greed will kill him. and once time will come and he will beg for the fight with AJ, will be too late. heavy hitter, come on now..

Delusional, embarrassing basically pricing himself out. Let's see Joshua has more belts, is more popular, jas more fans and bring more money to the table. Joshua making 30M fighting Miller. Wilder career high was about 7M and he needed Fury just to get that, before that his career high payday was just 1.9M Without either Fury or Joshua he ain't even seeing 10M paydays. Those guys with guaranteed contracts making huge money without him. He was offered 20M for the opponent he has to fight anyway and then guaranteed Joshua next for 40M and guaranteed a rematch clause to get another Joshua fight if he loses for another 40M payday. Now he is making less then 20M and talking 50/50 nonsense.

Asking for 50/50 when you don't bring half the money to the table and Joshua has all the belts he's the A side and I'm looking at Ring and ESPN rankings and Wilder is behind Joshua in all of them. Joshua/Miller is already tracking to produce a bigger live gate and higher attendance then Wilder/Breazele and Wilder is the one from the US not Joshua. And I'm not even bringing up the fact that most fans feel Fury beat him. It's one thing to say well you are the more popular but I got all the belts and I'm higher ranked. It's another to say screw belts I draw more fans and already make more money then you I am the A side regardless of belts. But it's just cringe worthy to hear him talk like this when every tangible thing says Joshua bring more to the table. GGG had 3 belts, number 1 ranked in division, P4P and still the best GGG could get for the first fight with Canelo was 30% lol

Breazale is a big strong respectable man but dude s boxing is terrible, his defense is a boulevard, not a good look Vs Wilder.

I remember him in a gatti vs Ward war Vs ugonoh, he visited the canevas twice, then I saw the Josh beating, dude get hits too much

u make it seem like wilder dont get touched. Wilder is very vulnerable. Wilder is there for the picking, from someone with a decent punch. The guy went life and death with ortiz. The thing about wilder is u better be on ur toes all 12, the guy can change everything with one punch.

You can’t be serious

this is heavy weights, brezeale can hurt wilder. Wilder is a chinney dude. At heavyweight its serious business.

Aaand there it is. For a guy who’s been allegedly chasing the fight, he’s sure putting up road blocks. Pac didn’t deserve 50-50 with mayweather, ggg didn’t deserve 50-50 with canelo and wilder doesn’t deserve 50-50 with aj.

I have said flat out AJ ducked wilder last yr when he was truly attempting to make the fight,but if Wilders actually serious about that demand & not just a negotiating tactic then hes straight up ducking AJ now. I do however feel that after Wilders successful ppv with Fury he does deserve 40%,even Parker got more than 30% ffs but AJs offering wilder a flat fee.

Come on Wilder you are not the A fighter plus your fighting a fighter that A.J already beat. A.J fighting a fighter in the top 10 HW.

Per Wilder's comments, this is what happens when you humiliate someone trying to simply and honestly make a fight. Wilder & Co. were totally disrespected and clowned during the INITIAL negotiations ... and TOLD what they were worth. Well, they have a different opinion, and are playing hardball now. I hope hearn is happy. I know fans aren't.

I believe the fight will be made once everyone steps back and remembers what it's worth to them and the sport. Or when someone loses and some of the "0" luster is off the fight.

If I were a champ I'd want 50/50 too. Whether that ends up being the end game .... we'll see.

LoL @ Wilder playing hardball tough! He isn't tryna cash out his self-respect like Parker did.

And while you fan-girls throw your hissy fits, ask AJ if he will take less than 50/50? I know, right? Well if you believe in yourself, and others try to throw you the shaft, this is what you get ...

this is real talk. When you the clear B side start talking like this the fight don't get made plain and simple.

Miller CAN huirt AJ too! Good for everyone to remember ...

I just wonder if hearn is gonna pay Big Baby to take a dive though??

[Tyistall]

What does that have to do with Wilder? Nothing. You don't like the guy so you think he should be crippled. It does say a lot about you as a person. You try to defend yourself by deflecting.

Wilder wants a body on his record. What does that say about him???
