    Ive said it before & I'll say it again Joseoh Parker may well be the dark horse in this race. He just might beat both AJ & Wilder

    While 40% is too much I also think Hearns 20% is too low. While it's a lot of money, far more than Parker would make against anyone else it will take more than that to secure the fight. Anything between 25-35% is where I think it would be a fair deal.

    Fact is Hearn will have to over pay to secure these fights just like every other champion had to previously to ensure unification of all the belts. But the problem Hearn has is the disparity in earnings between Joshua and the other belt holders is unprecedented. Joshua is a bigger draw than Wlad ever was and even Tyson when he unified the belts wasn't making this kind of money or anywhere near it. He only made $2.5 mill to become undisputed against Tucker. Tucker and Smith were paid between 4-6 times their previous purses to unify while Parker with 40% is asking for over 10 times his highest payday.

    AJ wont fight either Parker or Wilder. He will figth a rigthly paid bum and his legion of fanboys will rejoice in grandeur, all the while bitching at the rest of the world.

    Or your boy could stop pricing himself out of the market.. Least it seems your are accepting that fact now...

    Funny Blizzy agreeing that Wilder is ducking AJ lol, who would have thought...

    It's funny these guys all demanding a big slice of the pie and getting a bit cranky when they get told they are only going to get what they are worth...

    Honestly I don't think they will be getting a fight anytime soon... No big fights just happen without years of negotiations..

    Canelo - GGG
    May - Pac

    Unless one side wants the prestige of winning over getting some coin.. These day the belts are not really worth that much so it comes down to money...

    Both Parker and Wilder need to get their profiles to AJ's level then they can share that golden egg...

    40/60 is fair. Joshua the draw and Parker is a champ with a decent resume.

    70/30 is a slap in the face, who cares what that payday is to Parker... he's a champ as well. If AJ wants to unify, then pay a fair %.

    I don't AJ wants to unify tbh, its the other two looking for a payday. If they want more then they need to wait until AJ is ready for them, otherwise its really up the Parker and Wilder to make offers...

    You must of missed the last two stadiums AJ filled and his ppv buys. His not pricing himself out of the market. All the money comes from him.

    Who's last fight in the UK was on YouTube in an empty arena, which nobody watched and the fight sucked. Nobody in the UK gives a damn about Joseph Parker

    He can be the man to you all you want, but he isn't the hvw champion of the world. And that wish list of PED users and pig slop won't satisfy the fans. The world is at his feet and he's reluctant to fight Wilder, lmao. Why?
    All I know is that he will rot in the UK if he doesn't fight Wilder or Parker. Rich with no respect. If you're content with that so be it. Boxing always comes full circle.

    Parker can beat Wilder and he can give Joshua a real fight as well.....................Wilder will not fight him though. Wilder will always fight winos from the alley. Haymon has Breazeale lined up to fight Wilder next because Breazeale is owned by him and can't fight at all, will take a dive if ordered!
