    Sounds logically reasonable. It was way below expectations.

    No surprise why Warren is now collaborating with Arum.

      Don’t know about fury...but wilder got cash envelope from Haymon containing the remaining 12.7mil. It was a big envelope.

        They both made a hell of a lot more than 2.3 million each I am sure. That low amount for such a big fight makes no sense at all.

          Only few knew who Fury and Wilder were in the first fight.

            it makes no sense to receive money from other channels..the level of taxation will be around the same.

            However the books don't show the turnover..
            Tyson may well have 'donated' to 'a charity'(set up by one of his pals) ie claimed back the gift aid tax relief and withdrawn the money in cash.
            i really fking doubt the taxman (or whoever oversees charity fraud) will be walking around gypsy campsites asking to see receipts.

              they're so ****ing ******. Trying to deceive the public and effectively 'freeze AJ out'
              the problem was, the promotional campaign was about ripping off the Mayweather-Mcgregor formula.
              only Ksi and logan paul already did it that summer. that type of story was already oversold.

              karma..

                Wilder and Fury both probably wished they had made a fight with Joshua beforehand, after seeing him lose to Ruiz. The good news is they can both still get it, if they've got the cajones.

                  if they only made 3 million or so then 325 was a success, if they made 10 million it wasn't. we dont really know whats going on but they are doing another one so something tells me they aren't getting as much money as they want you to think. why would haymon/arum want to lose money again?

                    Warren probably suspected they got ripped off being a UK promoter not having any clue how every cent is accounted for in the US. But then, "That's all we made in the fight," shot back Finkel, who is equally clueless.

                    Warren has Arum as his guardian angel now.

Once they all get to the table to negotiate with Joshua they would all have to open the books, which means the real numbers would be there. That is probably one of the reasons no one is keen to sit down and negotiate the fight that we all want to see, they are better of sending phantom offers via social media.
                      The article says he has increased his net worth from £56,000 in 2018 to now over £100m.

                      That is impressive
