This is NOT I repeat NOT an easy fight for Wilder if they fight. Fury is more than capable of beating Wilder.

Big picture, Wilder may not fight outside of PPV ever again. Think about it, if he beats Fury then he has the Joshua fight in April. And Espinoza has already said that will be on PPV regardless of the location. And if he is to beat Joshua, then the rematch takes place in the states and that will definitely be PPV. I guess aside from Wilder just getting washed by Fury or Joshua, he ends his career fighting pretty much on PPV the rest of the way.

aj would still be the A side but hearn damn sure cant come with no flat fee offers (which he shouldn't have in the first place) he should offer wilder a decent percentage at that point the fight was negotiated. 40%+

If it does 1 million buys in the states and say 500k in the UK? The fight will generate if priced at $70 PPV:
Stateside: 1,000,000*70 = 70,000,000/2 = $35,000,000
UK: 500,000*26=13,000,000/2 = $6,500,000
Live gate: Moderate guess of $5,000,000
International revenue+sponsors = $3-4 million
And if Wilder is to get a 60/40 split here? Wilder would make around $30 million for this fight. And if he is making ~30 million for Fury? You betcha he will be wanting at least $40 million for Joshua.
Buts lets get back to reality, that is not going to happen. Like I said, their target number should be 350-400k US buys. That would still get Wilder about 15 million for this fight.

He's the B side unless the Wilder vs Fury fight does bigger money than any of Joshua's previous fights.
