Are we talking percentages? How many ways will the money be split? I'm guessing on AJ's side he will be giving Matchroom a big cut, then on Wilder's side he has about 4 managers/promoters? Will they just get a cut of their fighter's purses or will they negotiate their own cut?

How much would Hearn/Finkel/Haymon make from the AJ-Wilder fight?

Think Hearn takes 10%. Joshua his own manager, so doesnt lose anything there. Think Haymon takes 15% from fighters who get paid over 6 figures. No idea about Finkel and the rest

The event costs $25m to put on, total proceeds are $60m, net is $35m, with Matchroom Sport getting $7m and the fighter getting $28m (which the fighter then has to split with his management team/trainers/taxman).
Deontay Wilder, in this situation, would have to only split his purse with his team (unsure of DiBella's take, but he likely gets a small piece, Shelly Finkell gets his piece for being the guy to actually check the contracts, Haymon gets his piece for facilitating the deal, and then the training team gets their piece); on $15m, the camp likely gets $4m, with Wilder getting near $11m (before paying taxes; depending on how his affairs are structured, from a $15m purse, he's likely seeing $7m-$8m actually hit his personal bank account).

Wilder really only has one manager. Yes, he technically has three, but it's Finkel steering the ship. Wilder's trainer is the one that discovered him, so as a token of appreciation, Wilder gives his trainer credit as "co-manager" so his trainer makes a little extra $. Haymon is Wilder's adviser as you need to bring Haymon on to get into the PBC universe. But many PBC fighters keep an existing manager and bring Al in as adviser so they can join PBC.
