If we were going by the odds how long wilder lasts the fight would never be made. My guess is 3 rounds. And 2 rounds in the rematch when Wilders nerves leave him after that first loss. It wont really matter the bigger the rematch the more Joshua gets , Wilder is set at a price and rightfully so.
Wilders not the smartest boxer .Way more smarter people who went bankrupt and hes making pennies on what he has to pay in his lifestyle so............no hes not making a lot of money for a HW champion. In FACT his highest pay before Fury was the same as Trevor Berbicks back in 1986,the difference was Wilder had multiple title defenses to get to that number Berbick didn't even defend his title . lol Unless he secures this DAZN deal is he set ,hes simply not the sharpest tool ,no logic at all or most of what he does. IF he declines this deal he will go down as the OFFICIAL dumbest boxer in history.
@305th There ya go ! Mr.Money bags himself just became the dumbest and worst champion in ALL of boxing history .
He'd be an idiot to turn this down. At nearly 34 yrs old he doesn't have much time left in the sport.
So he's more or less turned it down at this point. This is the type of karmic situation that Wilder's been heading for for a long time now. Really wouldn't be surprised if Wilder loses to Breazeale and suddenly realises what an opportunity he's wasted as he tries to desperately claw back some of the immense fortune he's let pass him by. Boxing history is littered with similar cases, and I think Wilder is going to end up being the biggest of the lot.
He's come close to losing in his last 2 fights and required some dubious officiating in both to not lose his belt, it's only a matter of time that someone upsets him if he doesn't take the Joshua fight or DAZN deal. I refuse to believe anyone is this stupid the money being offered is bonkers considering his lack of ability to draw big numbers. I can only assume Haymon is vetoing the deal as a lot of his other fighters are supported by Showtime and FOX and him suddenly taking his biggest fighter to DAZN could cause problems with the rest of his fighters. I think when Wilder's deal with Haymon expires, that's when the fight will get made and he'll cash out, but he has to remain undefeated until then and there's no guarantee of that.
