I will say it again for the ******, if Wilder fought better opposition, he would have more belts (possibly), a lot of sponsorship money and a full arena. but no one is showing up to see him fight Arreola, Szpilka and the rest of the guys he fought. Ali said all kinds of crazy stuff, but he also fought the best guys in 2 eras. Wilder has openly refused to fight the Klitschkos, Haye, Povetkin, Whyte, AJ and the list goes on. He's a fraud. Thats why he's not fully supported
    U naming guys who failed drug tests when lined up to fight him.

    And like i said the topic is about social media and not about competition, save all that for another thread.

      you mean guys like Ortiz and Fury? Because they both failed drug tests too remember? Or does that mess up your (non)point?

        Ruiz’s guaranteed payday, aside from any endorsements he’s been able to secure, is believed to be $9 million. That’s $2 million more than he earned in the first meeting with Joshua. While $9 million is nothing to sneeze at, this isn’t Ruiz’s earning ceiling.


        yeah...wilder make 30 mil guy.....fury didnt make that either
        The media reports of Wilder's pay are nonsense. Reporters said he was guaranteed 20 mil for Ortiz but Finkel revealed the real number.

              Interesting way to think about it. I think it's a bit of a double-edged sword - on the one hand, yes, being able to see the replay of the KO on twitter could diminish the impulse to buy the fights like you say, but on the other hand having that highlight reel footage get circulated like that must do wonders for his profile. Wasn't there some list published recently that had him as the most famous currently active boxer? If that's the case I think social media is primarily to thank for that, so all in all it's got to be a net positive for him.

                Right, and you are one of those guys who likes to argue for the sake of arguing, without addressing the facts. So it's pointless to debate with you.

                    lol...yeah just multiple outlets reported it at 20....i guess those guys all made it up out of thin air...

                    you guys still dont get it....thats exactly what finkel and team wilder want people to see hes getting...theres a method to the madness.....the pbc have paying purses and then extra money later for some time now....

                    guarantee is the minimum...like if nobody bought a ticket or a ppv....youre a sad little boy robbie....somehow you want people to believe wilder made less than ortiz lol...clown
