All that talk about how Wilder deserved no less than 40% and even 50% split with AJ last year. He couldn't even break 1M PPV sales with the help of Fury in a highly anticipated rematch. So what percentage would be realistic now if talks heat up again between Wilder and AJ?

AJ hasn't proven to be a PPV draw in any way in the US. Wilder/Fury 800k PPV sales is about the same number of US subscriptions DAZN has. I am sure you would agree those sales were driven by Canelo and not AJ.

It's all moot for now. But say Wilder somehow were to regain the belt from Fury. If you have the fight in Vegas, do a 50/50 split on the US PPV and give AJ a 85/15 split on the Sky PPV.

The mystique has gone, Wilder isn't even worth 30% now.

They spent so much on promoting it they didn't even break even. Wilder-Fury was a flop for the networks.

"Based on the enormous amount of financial resources FOX and ESPN budgeted to promote their rematch, it is believed that Wilder-Fury II will need to generate somewhere between 1.1 and 1.2 million buys for the networks just to break even."
