Comments Thread For: Wilder Feels Joshua Unification is Worth $100 Million Purse

[champion4ever]

True but there is zero chance that AJ's side will split it evenly. They see themselves as a solid A side because he is such a huge star in the UK and Hearn will always bring up that Wilder wouldn't be able to sell out a stadium (unless he fought AJ). Somebody has to give in.

Yeah, that's very true and I agree. It's more likely they will split it 60/40 in Joshua's favor.

Wilder has lost his cotton-picking mind! $50 max. Wilder is getting more exposure but I doubt he'll sell out Barclays tomorrow and the ratings will not be too good either

Like I said earlier, he's lost his damn mind

It could be possible. He has to keep winning and playing the villain.

That seemed to work for Floyd and Tyson.


One loss though probably derails the whole train forever.

Oh **** off you bumkin,your best win was a 50 year old over hyped Cuban who had you out on your feet. The entire world saw you get embarrassed by a fat out of shape fury coming off of a 2+ year coke binger,and now you want 100 million to get knocked out by Joshua? How about you come back to reality with the rest of us and accept that your resume has been 99% bums,and you're literally one wrong punch from your scrawny chicken legs giving out on you,and the whole gravy train coming to a screeching halt.

And he communicated this in quacks.

You on some good drugs if you think you can get a purse of 100mil for fight, you top out at around 60-75mil if it’s on ppv, if dazn gets rights to fight going be in ball park of about 55mil unless they just spend crazy for fight to guarantee they get broadcasting rights

I agree it has to be a split. Offering a flat rate is proof that ur hoping to pay him the least possible. It’s not like they are offering him any % at all. Taking a flat rate only ends up looking good if the fight underperforms and somehow he ends up making better than say %40 of the purse. So why would Wilder promote a fight if the better it does the worse he looks? If either fighter loses and interest drops or the fight never happens, it’s on both of them. If u think Wilder sucks, then why not cash in on all this money if hes an easy touch? If that’s the case then both fighters are getting over paid!! And should be happy they could get our money!!

[daggum]

and this is based on what? his overwhelming popularity?

Who is the roll of killers that Joshua fought? Kilts that was out of boxing for almost two years and was winning the fight before finally succumbing to age/fatigue? Martin? Parker? Pedvetkin who stunned Joshua? Let’s face it both of they records is lacking wilder more so because he been a pro for longer but can’t try knock wilders and think Joshua is better especially with opponents he has faced lately
