Comments Thread For: Joshua Not Sold on Offering 50-50 Split To Wilder-Fury Winner

[Cortez]

All hope is not lost for AJ because if either wilder or most likely fury gets knocked out badly it will probably drop them a few spots and AJ could be no 2 in the world maybe


but dont worry guys he got more money that he's not giving you any of

Nobody from Joshua's side, including Hearn, feels that Wilder or Fury are worth 50-50%. The stats, facts and figures back that up perfectly too. Hearn said they would maybe have to go to 50% to get the fights. Joshua has been asking for justification for why that would be the case. There is no realistic answer to that.

Joshua made over 80million in his last fight, broke PPV records again and sold out a venue in a foreign country (and thats after taking a loss) Wilders last fight he sold 7 thousand tickets which is only half the venue and did around 200k in PPV's. (as the home fighter in a home venue on home soil) Tyson Fury? Well his numbers are even worse than Wilders.

And thats just looking at their last fights. Keep going back and it dont get any favourable for either Wilder or Fury. Do not get mixed up with Team AJ being willing to offer 50% and those two opponents being worth 50%.

Joshua didn’t get 80 million the whole site fee which includes the gate was 80 million. DAZN only gave the fight 5-10 million max. Then they got over a million UK PPV which is around 25 million. That makes a total pool of in the neighborhood of 105 to 110 million. Joshua himself says he gets about 1/3 or a little less of that. That would be around 35 million give or take a million or two. A little more than he got for the first Ruiz fight (32 million from DAZN) . That was significantly his highest pay day up to that point. Before then Joshua made 15-22 million per fight. That’s about what wilder and probably fury have been making for their last 4 fights. 80 million for Ruiz 2 in Saudi GTFOH.

He’s completely right and yet wilder fanboys somehow think him stating facts makes him some sort of coward

Only a fanboy like you would be concerned with how much money Joshua gets.

Even if he makes 200 million per fight which is extremely important to his fans he can't buy the HW championship of the world and finally we will have that soon.

Fury and Wilder are stepping up yet again. If AJ continues to avoid for whatever reason this time (money, keeping joke alphabet belts), whatever it is, it really doesn't matter,

bout time whyte and others got a shot at the title.

What has ranking got to do with anything? Splits are decided on who brings what. Joshua is by far a bigger draw.

in the UK where the tickets and PPV are 1/3 the cost . That means AJ has be 3 times more popular to make equal money . Money is what really matters

LMFAO 70% **** off.



Good to see Josh showing his true colors again. Guess it's Pulev then Pulev II then maybe Sam Peter? Joshua/Fury should be good (Hughie of course)

So what was all that "15 million is a lowball" Crap? And i know that interview you mention and i notice how you want to talk about Joshua's Post tax money and Wilder and Fury's pre tax. GTFO with your cheeky BS.

And you have the nerve to say Wilder gets an average of 15 to 22 million a fight over his last 4 fights lol. The Wilder v Ortiz 2 card didnt even make 20 million.

Wilder is turning fights down based on how much money Joshua gets. So ofcourse its going to be talked about on a Boxing forum. You only dont want to talk about it cuz it shows how wide the gap is between Joshua and Wilder as far as value and worth is. You know, A side stuff.

Well ok, lets just look at the last Joshua and last Wilder fights. Wilder v Ortiz did around 200k. Joshua v ruiz did 1.5 million. 200k x 3 is 600k. So Joshua did over 7 x as many as Wilder.

Just sayin.
