    No 65-35 split.

    Sounds like he would settle for 70/30 which will happen as Parker knows full well he isn’t earning that kind of money vs anyone else.

    Hearn is right when asks what does Parker bring to the table which Takam doesn’t? Not much more other than the belt.

    The bizarre overrating of Takam continues! All he has is a chin, he never won a single round against Joshua!

    The question isn’t about what they bring in the ring. Commercially what does Parker bring to the table?

    The gate would be the same. A few extra Ppv buys cos it’s a unification fight and NZ tv which is a small market.

    All the revenue is generated by AJ like it was v Takam and that’s why Parker should accept a huge payday and stop complaining. Parker isn’t AJ or anywhere close and needs to accept that.

    BS.

    Has Hearn actually offered a 70/30 split?

    I hate when money gets in the way of a fight.

    He said the fight isn’t getting done at 65/35 but 75/25 undervalues Parker so doesn’t take a genius to figure out 70/30 is likely the one.

    Lmao. If Hearn and AJ were so confident they're going to win then they'd accept 65/35. Bottling it.

    Honestly was going to say basically the same thing Hearn said here....only thing really to say that he won't is this Higgins guy is like a jittery little weirdo from a cartoon off beat show or something?:qpasaneng2:

    Not taking 65/35 is a duck.

    I hope they get it done. 70-30 65-35 please work it out.
    Parker has more to gain here, 2 belts, money and world wide recognition.
    An AJ win just earn him another belt and a little extra popularity.

    Tbh 70-30 is probably more fair than 65-35, if Joe gets offered 30% I think he should take it, if he doesn't take 30% then I kind of will hold the fight against him for not getting it done.

    Less than 30% and it swings the other way a bit for me

    Why do we even have to figure anything out though. If he's made an offer, he's made an offer.

    Hearns theoretical offer of the 65/35 split but both keeping the cut of there own tv rights is fair to me, I know duco won’t go for it they want 35% of everything across the board but realistically 35% of the gate and all of the NZ ppv money is still a fair deal for both party’s.
