    Exactly.
    Whyte is a ****en bum. You have to ask yourself why they offered Wilder 4 mil. Posters don't understand why because they don't really understand that part of the game. If a fighter who took up the sport, wins a world title and turns down a prize fight where he could win anlrize(4mil) then there has to be a reason. There is always a reason. Always. They joined the sport because they love the sport and to make money, win a title, and respect. Armchairs don't understand this.

    Blizzy... You are the biggest tool on this site who gets the least respect all round. You post utter trash and your Wilder fanboy antics are disturbing. Go play somewhere else troll.

    Because he's scared obviously... Turns down 4 because when he loses he doesn't get triple that vs AJ. Easy to understand moron.

    Wilders plan with AJ, is to get him signed up to VADA, spring a fake failed test on him, and then call him a drug cheat and rematch Dustin Nicholls.

    Later when failed test is proved fake, he says nothing and continues to duck him. For examples, see Povetkin and Ortiz.

    for money reasons if wilder was offered 4 million to face whyte this makes economic sense
    outside of povetkin and AJ this is the most money he can make for a single fight

    parker might generate the same i am not sure of the economics.

    the obvious goal is AJ as that will bank him in the region of 8 million i would guess maybe more.

    but promoters always want to lowball opponents and find the cheapest option they can get away with.

    parkers cheaper than wilder

    my guess of who AJ will fight next ie miller is cheaper still.

    wilders team are guilty as well they have paid just 150k to 200k approx for wilders opponents
    in heavyweight terms thats peanuts

    breazeale got nearly double that for fighting a non televised undercard fight v molina/ promoter lost a shitload of money paying him that much so they make mistakes like the rest of us

    wilder is a supposedly 'live' opponent (although he hasnt faced many himself), like it or not he also brings a belt he's held (to ransom i agree) for some time, plus some american interest which makes it a much bigger event, in fact makes it a huge HW event. yet some promoter in the uk who knows all of this is denigrating him telling him he isnt that good (yet his own protected fighter somehow is?) what he is worth,what he should accept, and who he should fight?

    a farce that anyone listens to this idiot at all.

    Anyone with an ounce of sense knows that Wilder has intentionally priced himself out, he's never shown any interest in taking on challenges in his career so why break the habit of a lifetime.

    Can't blame AJ if this is true. He has to know his monetary value as a boxer. This isn't a Mayweather/PAC situation where both boxers are massive draws.

    Joshua pulls in a bigger audience, makes more money and Wilder has to weigh out what that means from a business perspective. Does he price himself out and stand firm on 50/50 or budge and ask for 40% in hopes they accept or possibly get a 35% cut?

    By not fighting Joshua Wilder can expect to make a couple million for the rest of the usual suspects. Taking a smaller percentage to get Joshua in the ring would mean he could quadruple his highest payday.

    Pride is sometimes an athletes worst enemy.

    Even if he took 35% it would be ten times his highest payday at least

    Wilder has done his job, stirred up some interest in himself and raised his profile a little bit by calling out Joshua, to be honest it was all very see through.

    Far more knowledgeable posters than me called it on here immediately (way before I said similar) when all this started a month ago.

    But it was a certainty Wilder was going to price himself out of a Joshua fight because deep down he doesn't really want it.

    Wilder wants the AJ money, the worldwide recognition, the respect and love Joshua gets but doesn't want the really tough fights. Wilder is happy and content fighting the likes of Washington and Stiverne for 1 million a time.

    So Joshua and Parker will fight and earn a lorry load of money in front of a packed Stadium and might even do it twice if it's a good fight and Wilder can fight Washington II or Stiverne III in front of less than 15,000 for probably around 1 million.

    Wilder might be called a world champion and unbeaten as a professional but he is a loser financially and if he continues to do business this he will end his career with very little respect, very little love and not earning anywhere near what he could of.

    That's because Wilder is afraid of Whyte! It's obvious, hell, if Dustin Nichols can knock Wilder down with a jab, then Whyte would kill him and Wilder knows it..............

    That was certainly true of Joe Calzaghe when he was 39 fights into an 11 year career.

    At 39 fights Joey Boy was rematching cream puff Mario Veit on Eruosport because Sky were sick and tired of showing bum fight after bum fight.

    Yeah , Joe eventually stepped up after hogging a belt for 10 years against bums.. Wilder is ready for that step up after 3 years. Call it a step-up / cash out in exchange for a chin shattering if you want , but at least he's ready to go. The same can't be said for Gastony Juiceua.

    I'm pretty sure Calzaghe beat Chris Eubank for his title, and although it was a past his best Eubank it's still light years better than any Wilder win.

    Mario Veit was also a good, underrated fighter who handed Jurgen Braemer his first loss.

    Anyway I'm not sure why you are bringing Calzaghe into this, my post was about Wilder pricing himself out....demanding 50/50 vs Joshua. I don't remember Calzaghe pricing himself out of any fights, in fact I remember they made several offers to Ottke and Beyer that were all declined.

    50/50 says Wilder doesn't want the fight.
