Deontay Wilder Agrees To Face Anthony Joshua in the UK This Summer At A 60/40 Split

[Champ_KW]

Joshua is too easy to see through. Reading between the lines, how many fighters can I get to sign whatever contract I want, while not challenging the best available competition.


Again, when the conversation comes up there is only one fighter who absolutely says he will fight the other.



Joshua, just like his UK fans is always copping pleas, about hey look over here so I can distract you on why I am not fighting Wilder. Any one with half a brain can see what is going on.

At this point, maybe we shouldn't be frustrated with Joshua not fighting Wilder. Guys who dance around the tough challenges usually get knocked off or aren't ready when the real fight comes calling. I guess the word is out, watch Joshua to see a mediocre fight or watch Wilder to see a wild hungry dog ready to catch bodies to be great.

4 belts to 1.....how can you say he hasn't fought the best available competition when Wilder is 40 plus fights deep and never fought another titlist?

 

[Champ_KW]

Wilder should be getting much more than double what Parker made. The fight between him and AJ is that much more bigger.
If AJ and Hearn are unwilling to give Wilder a bigger percentage split than what they gave Parker for a fight of this magnitude then it simply means they dont want the fight.. Call it scared, call ot whatever you want

Blame Wilder's camp. He about to get 5 times more than he's ever made. What makes Wilder's belt more expensive than the other 4 AJ earned?

 

[merklman]

Hearn is contradicting himself like promoters usually do and Wilder and his team make statements which are bluffs and they are called.

I would be good if they would actually negotiate without the petty shyt and the big egos. 60-40, Joshua being the A side, it is very clear. Only relevant question should be about where the first fight would take place.

I still can't believe how many of you really believe in this fantasy of Joshua being scared of Wilder though. It's just business and timing. But hey... whatever makes your boat sail, whatever you need to get more hyped about it...


I'm pretty sure it will happen early 2019 max but possibly the end of this year. Just the usual fukkery before big fights, but it won't be nearly as bad as Floyd vs Pac, this won't happen 4 years late... this gonna happen in time

This. Why on earth would Hearn even bother sending an official offer to Wilders team if they were really shook? Wilders team could literally call his bluff right there, but, they are ducking . Legacy or cash out? Looks like cash out to me . . . . .

Wilder fans act as if part of the purse money will be going into their own bank accounts

Ya mans said its not about money but his legacy.....yet he doesn't want 5X what he's ever made....with the opportunity of DOUBLING that in the rematch....Yet AJ's the one who's ducking

Couldn't make this up

5 times more than he ever made is only around $10million which wont include back end revenue.. Who in there right mind would take such a low flat rate with no back end revenue for a fight of this magnitide??

Anybody with an ounce of intellegence should see the fact that theyre offering a flat rate is because they know the fight will be huge and will do record numbers, yet they refuse to offer a percentage split like they did with Parker because they too shook to offer wilder a fair deal.. They offer a flat rate in hopes he wull turn it down.. as he should

What does Wilder bring to the table? A belt? What else? Wilder looking for AJ to make him rich. On your own you command, AND ACCEPT, $1M-2M a fight on your own merit and have the audacity to act like someone owes you more than 5 times your highest pay day because THEY are the draw?? The real issue is why Finkel and company can't secure the type of bag AJ is getting on their own.

Did y'all forget Floyd took all the B-Side garbage from Oscar to get where he wanted to go? And Floyd had to get his weight up by getting at Gatti, on his turf in Atlantic City, took the B-side of the billing (Thunder & Lightning), and took the lesser payday. Wilder and company looking to hit the lotto instead of getting on their grind. Now AJ, the dude that earned 4 belts, got 90k turning out to see him, got Under Armour, Hublot, etc all on his team is "wrong" because he's offering Wilder five times more than his own skillset has garnered him on his own??? Watch Wilder dumb ass team turn this offer down and fight another bum or gatekeeper for another $1M.

 

[Dushane Hill]

Also he was offered 12 million POUNDS, which is $18M...9X the most he's ever earned.

 

[Dushane Hill]

Bumsquad not even acknowledging he even said it

Theres a whole heap of things they refuse to acknowledge and never have an answer for.

Him not being able to sell out the Barclays centre.

Him only having one belt that he won from.....wait for it......Bermane Stiverne

Him never having any unification bouts.

Him avoiding Klitschko and Tyson Fury like the plague.

But yeah AJ is ducking, AJ is scared, AJ isn't a big draw etc.

Wilder deserves a percentage of the split and back end revenue just like they gave Joseph Parker. So why was Parker given a percentage plus back end? The reason is because AJ wants to fight Parker. He doesnt want to fight Wilder, he is shook.

Nobody here is even arguing that AJ isnt the bigger draw, so you can stop deflecting to imaginary arguments.. What i am arguing is that a fight with Wilder does represent arguably the biggest fight in UK history, and Wilder or anybody else should be compensated on the back end based on revenue at least 35% around what they paid Parker

Who did Joseph Parker win his belt from??

Who did Parker unify with??

Wilder sales more tickets than Parker

More viewership than Parker

A much bigger name all around than Parker

Yet AJ refuses to offer Wilder a respectable percentage split like he did Parker


Yea.. that nikka sounds shook to me

 

[Black_Jesus]

Also he was offered 12 million POUNDS, which is $18M...9X the most he's ever earned.

Actually he was offered a flat rate of 8.8 million pounds... Nice try though

With Deontay Wilder turning down reported £8.8 million offer to fight Anthony Joshua, Shelly Finkel says counteroffer will be made by tomorrow at the latest — Boxing News 24/7

Why hasnt Wilders team sent that counter offer . . . shouldve been recieved days ago . . . they shook?


Is it legacy or cash out brother?

Why are you arguing splits? What's the point of a split if the most you can make is $3M? You act like they gave Parker a split that netted him $20M. Of course this fight is gonna do huge numbers revenue wise. 90k in Wembley (cause of AJ), Sky Sports PPV (in the UK, not in the USA....so again, cause of AJ), etc. AJ the one bringing the paper, so why are you on his plate worrying about what he and his team trying to eat when they're feeding you 5 times more than you've ever ate in your life? That's the dumbest narrative I've heard. Who gives a fukk how much the fight make or how much Eddie and AJ pocket.....you're making you career earnings in one fight and still wanna say it's not enough. Do like Floyd and bet on yourself and stop acting like a chick wanting someone else to take care of you. Take this career payday, win the fight, the rematch gets set on your terms. It's not a hard concept at all. They all can't be dogs like Spence, I guess. Tell Wilder to cut the shyt, grab this bag and secure his kids future, grab these belts off of AJ, and double up on the come back. He hustling backwards. I almost want the fight to fall thru so we can see the peanuts Wilder and Shelly willingly accept for his next fight with a dance partner not named AJ.

They're already pursuing AJ leftovers (Breazeale) for <$3 million. That's the legacy they want
