    $10 million. Sulliman has reiterated that Wilder is that mandatory challenger to Stiverne's title. Wilder said he would be willing to step aside and let Wlad fight for the title if he where paid in the range of $10MM(translation, he's intent on enforcing his mando status). Here's his exact quote;

    "The thing about step-aside money is that I know that many people have taken the easy money and stepped aside and let other people fight. That being said, you know, as far as step-aside money, they would have to really come with something for me to want to step aside. Let's talk about something in the range of $10 million. Other than that, there won't be no stepping aside. That would be the end of that."

    Good for him, I know he gets criticized a lot for his competition but atleast he wants to fight stiverne instead of fighting tomato cans for another two years.

    Unification takes priority over mandatories. Hopefully Don King won't be too much of an assh-le and a deal can be made to unify in September. Stiverne stands to make millions for this fight so hopefully there will be no bullsh!t and it gets done.

    I would take 10 mil to do nothing too.

    10 million?

    WTF?

    That's a hell of a lot of money.

    Wilder shamelessly preparing to duck Stiverne. I know it, you know it, we all know it, Stiverne would brutalize Wilder. Far, far to big a step up for the totally untested Wilder.

    I don't see the point of putting value into unification
    it's not like wlad needs to be legitimized, and the federations will only break them up again anyway

    It's called business tactics. Ask for the world and meet somewhere in the middle. :deal

    I'd like to see Wlad hold all four major belts. The other three orgs don't seem to mind Wlad holding three different belts. The WBC probably stands to make more money if Wlad holds their belt.

    I'm guessing Wilder will end up accepting $100k to wait it out. What's the point to being KO'd by Stiverne for a few hundred thousand when he can be by Wlad for a million.
