Farmer will fight Tank on DAZN "if the business is right"

[Motorcity Cobra]

Am not fooled. I have the same feeling about Wilder then that you have about farmer now. At least Farmer has seen 2m dollars before in his fights. Wilder didn’t see 12.5m or 15m when he turn those offers down..... #Lowball offer, keep the same energy.

And Wilder has made more since. And had his offer for Breazeale from DAZN matched by Showtime. Now Showtime and Fox are in a bidding war for his next fight against Ortiz.


Farmer will never make $2 mil in a fight. His worth is attached to Tank. Without Tank he never gets a deal with DAZN

Farmer already is making more than what he has been offered. That is without tank. So it’s a lowball offer. Keep the same energy.

What does Wilder has to do with this? Yes am comparing them two. Farmer is even in a better situation. He is getting paid more by DAZN. Wilder was getting paid peanut to the offers he was getting. The energy spent with Wilder should be the same for Farmer,

Fact is they are in the same both, apples and apples, same energy. #Lowball offer... keep the same energy.

Farmer is getting paid even more compared to Wilder? What are you even talking about? Let me repeat one more time, a 2M offer to a UC fighter who has no fan base of any sort is NOT a low ball offer. If DAZN will pay Farmer more than 2M for a Davis fight, then definitely fair play to him and he should counter to Ellerbe that dollar amount.

I don't know which energy crap you are referring to. I don't know about which comment I made about the Wilder situation you are even referring to. But in no way are Wilder and Farmer similar in ANY way.

No he isn't. His 4 fight deal was for a total of $2 mil. He's offered $2 mil for one fight. He'll never make that much for one fight. He's not crowd pleasing. He doesn't sell tickets or drives subs. Meanwhile Davis is doing ESPN numbers behind a paywall. Davis has future PPV fights.

Finally! Thank you this is what I was looking for.

Farmer has made more than 2M? Point me to when he has seen more than 2M. I'll be waiting.

And even if he hasn't made 2M before, which I'm sure he hasn't, that isn't all that relevant. Why? Because if Davis/Farmer is such a big fight then he should be paid accordingly. If that fight could generate say 10M, then it doesn't matter if he has seen 2M or not, he should be getting more than that. The problem here? Davis vs Farmer is NOT no big mega fight. It's just a good unification bout.

Now to Wilder. I've been VERY consistent on the matter. Not once did I say Wilder deserved 50/50. When there were rumors of Hearn offering a 60/40 split, I said that was more than fair. Offering Wilder 12.5M or 15M compared to what that fight would generate would have been a low ball offer. Hearn offering a 60/40 split or even what DAZN later offered Wilder? Those definitely weren't bad offers.

So yeah, please don't compare Wilder and Farmer again, unless you really think Davis vs Farmer is this huge fight that will do big money. In fact, Mayweather said he wanted it on PPV. So tell me, if this was on PPV, how many buys would it do? Then tell me how many buys a potential Wilder/Joshua fight would do? Wilder also had another opponent at that time where he could have made similar money against in Fury… Which proved to be the case.

But hey who knows, maybe DAZN will give Farmer similar money to the offer Ellerbe gave him to fight Diaz or someone else. Maybe DAZN is willing to pay him 3M to fight Davis. That is perfectly fine, but he didn't even counter the offer or take the talks serious. Why? Because he has another plan in mind and that is securing the bag for multiple fights, not just potentially the Davis fight where he could get KTFO and lose out on any future deals.

Nobody knows what any fight would generate.
That's the problem you people are having.
You're just guessing.
Do you know how many PPVs would the upcoming Wilder/Ortiz 2 fight would sell?
Only god knows.

[Motorcity Cobra]

Exactly.
Haymon fanboys need to be consistent when crying lowball.
They scream lowball only when it comes to DAZN/Hearn,
but not when it comes to PBC/TMT/Sho/Fox/Spinoza...

Since those Wilder “Low ball” offers, any boxer can ask for anything that they want. Whether they deserve it or not is irrelevant. We created a monster in that aspect, you cannot go back now and question if “That is a low ball” offer or not.

This is y'all champion

Fighters need to understand. Calling me out disrespectfully won’t get you a fight with me. Why would I let you get a payday being disrespectful🤷🏽*♂️ I’m calling the shots now !

Who said anything about Farmer getting paid more than Wilder? If you cannot see the comparison then no point. You either playing dumb or you just don’t want to keep the same energy. Fact is you lot were screaming lowball when Wilder was offered 12.5m and making 1.5m.

Now Farmer is making 2m upward and he just got offered 2m and you want to deny that is a lowball offer, going by that Wilder theory... this offer from Team Tank is a lowball offer.

My champion? Nah, just calling you all hypocrites that all. Anyone that claimed Farmer is chatting s hit with this “Lowball” offer, you cannot back Wilder when he was making 1.5m or Ortiz who was making 500k, then turn around and try and criticise Farmer for this “Lowball” offer.

You lot need to keep that same energy and call the Tank offer a lowball offer....
