Deontay Wilder Wants 50-50 Split Against Anthony Joshua And Wants It In The US

he's getting £15m for the Takam fight which is roughly $20m

 

Its never going to be in the US unless Wilders profile grows to Mike Tyson level..

 

He is making around 10 million for this fight with Takam .... That is likely as much as Wilder has made his whole career. There is zero case to be made for either a 50/50 split or the fight to be in the US, one fighter is selling out stadiums the other cant sell out their local mall.

70/30 with fight in a UK stadium is fair and generate the most money for both fighters.

 

Trying to price himself out of the fight.

Deontay has a very nice setup going in the US right now, defending his sham world title against mandatory cans. Why would he risk losing all that for a fight with AJ ?? Yes he would get a nice payday but he would also his title, rep and would likely never win a belt again.

 

Bongsquad!!! Nice how the WBC have looked after him though so far...hes maybe scared his ca$h out fight is going to be derailed vs a bum though....

 

I think Joshua should have a few tune-up fights in Alabama to raise his profile a bit.

 

I will laugh so much if Buffet Bermane lands a Nichols Sconnier special on Wilder's glass mandible and collects the Femi cash out loot.

 

Bad news, the fight may not take place, in the near future. It makes no sense for AJ to split 50/50 until Wilder beats two or three worthy opponents.

 

I've been lobbying for Wilder to get a 50/50 split of Murata-Ndam for that very reason.

 

I dont think the outcome of this fight will determined on where it takes place. No way its going the distance.

So it should happen in London imo. More money and more exposure for both.

 

I could see someone like Wilder not taking the Joshua fight from being delusional enough to believe in his own self worth but at the same time, I can expect Wilder to take a paycut real fast to make that Joshua fight once Dillian Whyte becomes his mandatory (which should be soon) and not risk losing his belt to the Body Snatcher. I can already see something like play out.

A scenario like that would be Eddie Hearn's dream. Cuz Wilder would be stuck between a rock and a hard place.

 

Flat fee

 

I've been saying it for awhile, Wilder is more mental than Charlie Z
50-50

 

Get robbed? Please. I know you hate Joshua but it's time you started approaching things to do with him a little bit more logically.

Joshua is the nearest thing we have to a legit heavyweight champ - you can thank Fury for that - and has made a mockery of Wilder's competitionand level of popularity in half the time amassing a huge fan base, two belts and retiring a legend of the sport.

Meanwhile Deontay's claim to fame is that two fighters we'd have actually seen him fight couldn't and it wasn't his fault like we've not seen him target the lowest hanging fruit throughout his career.

 

Bong is even more of a window licking ******** than I first thought if he thinks that fights going the distance. Every time Deonkey has fought even half decent opposition, he's got clipped. When AJ clips him, he's going into a coma
