Not the biggest AJ fan but he deserves at least 60-65% imo. He is the biggest attraction in boxing apart from Canelo. Sure a Wilder fight would give him his largest purse but it would also give Wilder his biggest payday as well. The bigger star gets the bigger piece, it has always been like that. Otherwise Mayweather/Pac should've been a 50/50 split.
The bodybuilder is holding the heavyweight division hostage hogging all those shiny belts! Let's just hope a even fatter morbidly obese foe flattens him and ruins his farcical reign.
Parker has wins over Ortiz which is better wins than a win over Jennings. Rivas has the same best career win as Ortiz but its recent not over 4 years ago. Chisora is in the best form of career with his career best wins over Takam, Price and Szpilka. That makes him a better win than beating Jennings. Whytes reume is clearly better than Ortiz whose only notable win was 4 years ago against Jennings.
When purchasing a PPV there should be an option to choose which of the 2 fighters you are paying to watch, its the simplest and easiest way to fairly split the ppv revenue.
I like the 40-40 or 30-30 split with the winner taking the remaining 20-40%. Something like that. Skin in the game. The big name fighter will typically get the additional cash anyway. Guaranteed money sometimes leads to less than stellar efforts (Ruiz as of late). Probably wont happen but I think it would be good for the sport.
You should be able to pay just to see the arguments around the split percentages, choice of venue and promotional requirements without any of the tedious boxing part. Then an option to ensure all your money goes to the promoter.
If AJ wants to be remebered by the one who didn’t fight the other two, then fine by me. Wilder and Fury are fighting eachother for the second time soon and I’m sure they will generate more money then their last fight. If AJ keeps demanding 70% and the fights don’t happen it’s a duck imo. As things are now AJ needs Wilder or/and Fury more than they need him.
Nothing sad about it, the point only stands if Wilder wins the rematch, given that happens he's clearly the number 1. Yeah Wilder knocks out everyone AJ had as well as those he hasn't.
Forget that, you know the winner of Fury Vs Wilder is going to ask for 60/40. You look at interviews from all three fighters and it's clear that Joshua is the most sincere in wanting the fight.
i dont agree with AJ giving wilder or fury winner 50/50 however at the end he might have too for legacy
Now as well as an 0 I'm seeing ' lower ranking' as a reason why Joshua, the 2 time unified Heavyweight Champion of the world is not the A side!!! Lol and just to add I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure I read that Joshua did bigger numbers on DAZN than Canelo in their last fights, and Joshua v Ruiz was on in the afternoon..US time!!
