Comments Thread For: Hearn is Firm: Wilder Doesn't Deserve 50-50 For Joshua Fight!

[EnglishOxide]

has hearn ever offered wilder a split for the joshua fight?

If No, then thats su****ious imo, a fight this big NEEDS a purse % split, that should be obvious

He has offered him 40% on Showtime, and in the US and Deyonce said no.

[daggum]

wilders biggest payday is 10 million, joshuas is 35 million

wilders biggest live gate is 3.5 million, joshuas done over 10 million many times

why is this 50/50?

[Outwest Exp 355]

Wilder doesn’t deserve a 50/50 split. But if you scream loud enough maybe you can get 40 to 45 percent.

I don't care who gets what, but I do find it a little ironic how Eddie has bragged about throwing around DAZN's money and even gave Farmer about 8x what hes worth (and I like Farmer) but he's so against paying Wilder.

Holy ****!!

40% is a great offer for wilder, wtf is wrong with him wow

Joshua/Fury would do more numbers than Joshua/Wilder.

In your dreams. Nobody knows AJ in the USA and nobody here cares about these two Brits going at it. That's half the revenue right there.

Wilder offer AJ 50 million or 50% whichever is greater. AJ turns it down. AJ then offers wilder a flat fee of 12.5 million, later upped to 15 million. Wilder states at that point, He was moving on to a fight with Fury and that he would not accept anything less than 50-50. This has now become an ego thing. Especially since ESPN reported Wilder to be far more popular. AJ’s name doesn’t carry much weight in the US. Also if the fight is on PPV is the US it generates 1.5 million buys at $100.00, plus’s a live gate of 30 million. Nearly. 200 million dollar fight. AJ should take the Floyd-Pacquiao route in negotiating.

Hearn is already *****ing up his relationship with DAZN/John Skipper. A blind man can see how how this will end.

Prepare for mass cult like suicides in the uk if that happens.....

Why do people that don't even know the cable providers take half the PPV discuss money?

who says the fight has to happen in the US? Aj makes 3 times more money than wilder against opponents who arent even as popular as fury so of couse it would do much more. even in the US it could do better than wilder but we will wait and see on that. how much would wilder vs breazele do in the UK?
