Jarrell Miller: "Anthony Joshua getting $75 million for Ruiz 2 fight in Saudi Arabia"

[Eff Pandas]

If you believe Big Baby once shame on Big Baby. If you believe Big Baby twice shame on you.

I dont doubt AJ is getting a check thatd cure a guy of ED, but I find it extremely hard to believe Big Baby would know an exact number of a check some other guy was getting before the other guy even got that check.

Miller is likely full of ****, but a point like that is why Wilder isn't fighting Joshua on DAZN any time soon.

Ruiz gets stiffed on the money, sees his purse for the rematch go from $6m to $8m, and likely still ends up in a situation where Joshua is making tenfold what he's making, lol.

No different to previous cross over stars, why do you all of a sudden care what the opponents make? Is it because now the A side is a brit?

Did you care about Shane Mosley's or Juan Manuel Marquez's purse when they fought Floyd or Manny? Or Tim Bradeys?

Did you care when Floyd took 33% against Oscar? Despite being the p4p #1

Wilder's decision making was idiotic, at best. Hes trying to win a PR war , the kid is not smart.

I still don't see the issue. Ruiz couldn't have even dreamed of this kind of money. He's getting it because Joshua brings it to the table.

He could refuse and fight for parity elsewhere, but he's taking home less. If he beats Joshua again, he's massive!

Same goes for Wilder. If you want that money, just go and beat Joshua a couple of times.

As for whether AJ is getting $75M... I wouldn't have thought Miller had any kind of inside line but it's probably not far wrong. He didn't become less of a draw in defeat - I think it did the opposite. The world can't wait to see if he can recapture the belts.

Sometimes you got to ignore certain posters, especially when they keep ****ing on about the reasons for Wilder ducking Joshua.

The fight is in SA for one reason only - MONEY. What do you think he would get? 50M? LMAO. I would not be shocked if AJ is getting close to 100M.

[Rockybigblower]

SA is paying WWE half a billion for 2 shows a year for the next 10 years so that number is believable.
More than Wilders earned his whole career in one night.

That's only 25 mil per show. There's not a lot of profit in that after paying the roster plus transport logistics.

... They couldn't fight in the UK, tbh; because of low temperatures...

... and I never care about the huge money that other people are making...

[Rockybigblower]

Whatever the case...Big Baby...you aren't getting any of it.

[Thuglife Nelo]

Canelo only get's paid big when he fights GGG on PPV (i think again JCC Jr he may have done well...

Wrong. Canelo gets his premium high of $34mil on the Mexican dates stipulated in his contract.

Fielding fight was in December, less, but prorated

Its so hard just ignoring what big baby did, I like the fact he didn't deny his wrongdoings some people in the sport could learn a thing or two from Miller. Miller should be put all the way down on the list, he gonna have to prove a lot of people wrong.

Didn't deny? He called it bullsh-it at first but couldn't deny it anymore when he was busted a second time for EPO and HGH. What exactly can people learn from Miller? Dude obviously been juicing for a long time and should be suspended for a loooooooong time. He's lucky boxing don't give a damn about whether you get caught or not.

[BangEM]

This number is actually on the low side and just his cut from what SA is paying. Once you add UK PPV, DAZN’s money for rights to the fight and TV rights for over 150 countries, the number is crazy.

Matchroom is making $16million from the fight - let that sink in. Canelo isn’t getting that type of money and he’ll need 3fights to get it. That’s why he’s asking DAZN to pay him $100m to fight GGG, lol. Don’t ever compare the two again, lol.
