Best I could find...
Wilder: Joshua fight will be done with 50-50 split
Wilder camp been insistent on 50/50 or no fight...
So where have they offered AJ 50/50 in that article?
Thats an unreasonable demand, everyone pretty much would agree 50/50 isnt feasible. . Unless the PPV numbers from saturday come in >500k or something. Wilder doesnt bring in the revenue that AJ does, its that simple. Anyway the last thing was Wilder camp rejected the $80million to fight 2x AJ + $20million to fight Breazele (only to fight him on saturday for <$10milly . .). Previous to that, they offered the $50milly AJ wanted, but then couldnt come up with the funds/contract when requested . . .

@ 50/50 being unreasonable...Neither one of these dudes doing numbers in the biggest market (USA) to warrant either guy demanding more than 55/45...
Yea Joshua is a bigger draw...in London...
What's unreasonable is asking someone to accept 100 million for THREE fights knowing full well one of those fights alone will generate half a billion in revenue...
Lol to say AJ is ducking is ridiculous, they have offered the fight numerous times and Wilder never signed, last offer Wilder said he rejected was for 120 million.

Funny thing is i just tried looking up the prelim ppv buys for Wilder/Breazeal . . . this shyt wasnt even PPV
Wilder cant sell a PPV without a British fighter
Get the whole way the fukk outta here when they trying to ask for 50/50 when team wilder full well know he aint the one bringing in the dough. Wilder cant even sell out the damn barclays
Explain how AJ is selling more tickets in NYC than your own homegrown champ 
. Wasnt Fury walking around NYC asking people if they knew who Wilder was and not a single person knew 
A while ago bum squad were saying AJ doesnt want it etc, but now the cold hard facts are that Wilder has rejected and ducked multiple offers for the AJ fight, and now made it about money, not "legacy" which he was saying when he thought AJ was scared
And not to mention, even with the highlight reel KO, Wilder talking about give me time
This is the thing that makes me laugh. When they thought AJ was scared, team Wilder were all about legacy and unification. Now that matchroom/dazn have called them out with multiple offers, theyve ducked it because now its all about the money not legacy
The guy cant even sell out the barclays, cant sell a PPV without a British fighter . .What kind off BS is that when you dont have the confidence to put your guy on PPV yet still try to say 50/50
. If he gets the win, he'll be calling the shots. Its clear his team dont have that confidence in him

The fight will make more in London than it would in the States, Wilders isnt known like that over there while everyone here knows AJ and he sells out 90k seater on a regs. It would seem smart to have the fight there because of the market size but shortsighted considering the hometown hero is barely known, while the other guy literally has a nation behind him and has the numbers to prove.
