Andy Ruiz: "If Joshua wants rematch in the UK, they gotta give me 50 million."

[JuniorTorres720]

Heck yeah Andy, get that bag baby! Haha. Man, Ruiz deserves it and I'm glad he's assuming his role as champion. Don't let others push you around. YOU call the shots now. Now, with that being said, does anybody know if the money was discussed already in the rematch clause or is it open to negotiate? Ruiz deserves that payday and should be demanding that moolah especially after everyone doubted him.

[Split Decision]

He has all the bargaining chip in his hands, this is why you take risks. Not sure what was in the rematch clause contract, but he deserves it. He wasn’t asking for it before the first fight. This is how you do it. He isn’t asking for a handout like the others. He is asking for what he deserves.

u may pick only one of the bolded

as u dont know what is in the contract u cant then say ruiz holds ALL the bargaining power

[KTFOKING]

Yes!!!! Aim high my man!!! Get as much as you can for the rematch. If you made 6-7M for the first fight? Make sure you make 15-20M for the rematch.

From Dan Rafael:

He earned more than $3 million for Saturday night's fight, and his purse for the rematch will be more than double that.

Three million was his reported purse I'm assuming? Probably not his official purse. I mean did Hearn really pay him half of what he was going to pay Miller/Ortiz?

[Armchairhero]

Every contract also has a buyout clause.

Haymon can pay $5 million to buy out the rematch clause and make Ruiz vs Wilder.

Andy would win an out in arbitration as precedent was set for 3 belt HW champ at $50 million. Remember Wilder offered it publicly to AJ.

Hearn is getting played in America left and right.

As if the buy out clause would be so low, your reaching a bit here

Not sure but Hearn has said Ruiz was gettign less than Ortiz was offered. Ortiz was offered $10m for the rematch so whatever happens he will be getting less than that and certainly not $50m.

War Ruiz!!!!

[Street]

Both fighter are guided by Al Haymon folks so Ruiz shouldŽt worry about anything, heŽll get what is fair

[uppercut510]

Uhmmmmm.....so he wants a top 3 purse in HW history after winning one title fight? Nope. Get realistic. a 50/50 split of PPV revenue sounds par for the course.

its just a power play they know they wont get it, just funny to see this all turn on eddie. the fight needs to happen in the US, aj should come put his foot down and do what he was supposed to do out here instead of running back home
