    Rumour is Parker may end up with $18m all told. If Wilder is offered that as a flat fee I wonder what the people who told Golovkin to accept 5m flat would say.

    Wilder is so confident he's willing to let Joshua take whatever amount he wants to fight him ... so long as Wilder gets the same amount for a rematch should Wilder win.

    That's the MOST CONFIDENT OFFER I've heard forever. If he loses, there's no rematch.

    So Wilder's going all in. Because he knows he'll win by KO.

    And Joshua and Hearn are so anxious about losing to Wilder they'll give him a better split than they gave Parker because they think there's a real possibility Joshua will lose the first fight.

    This UK guys just want to hear what they want to hear. I heard this stuff a month ago, but this @Sugar88 is acting as if it's something that emerged out of Wilder's camp right after the Parker fight.

    Wilder's team have made clear months ago that they're willing to give Joshua the lion's share of the fight and also concede the venue of the fight to Joshua and his team as long as they sign on the dotted line.

    This is a fresh statement. Wilder's latest one. Before that he has said numerous things about splits, location and the like that contradict his latest statement. We both know this so don't act like he hasn't said otherwise in the past.

    78sportv is very close to Deontay Wilder. Look in his archives, Wilder has appeared on his podcast on more than one occasion.

    Yeah which he has contradicted too at times. I'm just pointing out he recently went out of his way to say his latest position in reponse to Joshua is that he's willing to travel.

    Only on ESB could someone take issue with that.

    There is no contradiction, you guys in the UK simply hear what you want to hear. You don't like the guy and will absorb any negative portrayal of him fed to you. There's no agenda in me, I'm just telling it like it is..... I'm massive fan of both Joshua (my grandmother is Nigerian like Joshua) and Wilder. It's stupefying when you hear someone question his desire to fight the best. He even gets the blame when 3 of his manditories test positive for performance enhancement drugs.

    So when he was saying kings don't chase kings and that Joshua needs to come to America everyone just imagined it? Come now. He's showing a lot of balls lately and i'm respecting that.

    What a **** are you talking about. The "kings don't chase Kings" was in reference to Whyte. Who wants to see Wilder vs Whyte.

    Wilder was offered a weekends work for Sky Sports.
    (He had done it before during the Klitschko fight)

    He was also offered his own press conference in front of all the media that was there.


    The guy is either scared or stupid...Neither are a good look.

    Once again I think you're confused as to this reversing of the split being conditional on a Wilder victory in the first fight? I'm wondering if you've simply not seen some of the many stories that have surfaced regarding the two fight deal being negotiated regardless of what happens in the first?

    https://www.express.co.uk/sport/box...shua-negotations-two-fight-deal-Joseph-Parker

    “They are looking at two fights with Wilder. One here and one in America – regardless of what happens, it’s a two-fight deal.

    or

    "Hearn said he would like to make a two-fight deal with Joshua-Wilder I taking place in the United States, at Barclays Center or in Las Vegas, sometime between October and December on pay-per-view with a rematch in England."
