Comments Thread For: Joshua: Ruiz Was The One Who Put His Name On The Contract

[lfc19titles]

How do we know what was offered to Wilder or Ortiz. Do we have an actual contract that Ortiz had. Man can fix his mouth to say anything. Show me a contract that Ortiz supposedly turned down. FOH

Show me any contract a boxer has had ? You wouldn’t as it’s not uploaded

Why the hell would it be in public

It’s whats confirmed by teams

What kind of an idiot are you ? Have you just started watching boxing

[OPS]

My point exactly. You don't have a contract and we don't know for certain. That means we literally have no proof other than someone words. Yeah I just started watching boxing cause I was too busy ****ing your mom during the Hagler, Hearns, Holifield, Tyson era.
Guess you can say I feel like a "nut."
No pun intended.

[OPS]

Enough about world news, the truth of the matter is, AJ haven't fought someone dangerous since getting knocked down by a very old Klitcho, I can only imagine what Wilder will do to the chin.

Your grammar is terrible even for American standard since most of you don't seem to be the sharpest tool in the shed. You're mostly zombies who need to dragged by the ears, before you can discern anything.

So, I guess I wouldn't take your comment seriously because you're not the brightest bulb around. All the facts are in your face, yet you chose to be an irredeemable r3tard. It's pitiful, really.

The only idiot holding the belt hostage is the windmiller who will get sparked out soon. 42 fights and 41 bums + 1 half-fit elite boxer who he lost to with his face smashed up.

Why are you so mad with Andy Ruiz? you know well but you're in denial, that Ortiz price himself out of the fight, he was offered 5-7 million and he wanted 10. Him, Wilder and even Fury cant draw flys to Shêet. out of the blue comes a 6' tall fat boy with waaay more cojones than wilder and Ortiz put together and you making fun of him? instead, you should be criticizing the other two cowards.

Frazier and Muhammad Ali
each earned $2.5 million for their heavyweight title fight.

—Heavyweight champion George Foreman earns $5 million and the former champion Ali earns $5.45 million for The Rumble in the Jungle.
—Holmes and Cooney made 10 million a piece for their fight.
—Tyson was paid 30 million and Holyfield 35.
—Mayweather 250 million and Pacquiao 160
—Canelo vs GGG was a 55/45 split
—Wilder 14 million and Fury 10
—Lewis 17.5 million and Tyson 17.5 million
—Haye vs Klitschko 50/50 split

I could go on and on and on. Notice the trend here? That’s right I know you see it. Prizefights typically are and have been equitable for both fighters. Some on this list brought much more than the other. The bottom line is, I don’t care who is A,B,C,D fighter. When fighting for a belt that is going to generate potentially a million + ppv buys you make the split equitable and not 10-20 million flat pay s h ! t.

Missed Wilder vs Ortiz in that list, I assume it was 50/50 or close?

Actually, I see the listed purse was $2.1M vs $550K so an 80/20 split. $7m for Ortiz was crazy money and he knows it.

Something you may have missed about my list is that with the exception of one it is champ vs champ or champ vs former champ. However, if I had been Ortiz I wouldn’t have taken 80/20. I’d have taken 70/30.

I'll put it another way, would you advise Ortiz to take the fight for $500K plus a shot at one belt on a 70/30 split or $7M plus a shot at 3 belts on a 80/20, you would take the $500K huh?
