    People can say what they want...but 20 percent is grim. Whytes beat some decent challengers. No way any split for a title should be 80/20 otherwise whats the point really. Its not like whyte winning would really turn him into a massive moneymaking machine. He wouldnt be able to get any decent opponents if his split was 80/20 after winning the belt.

    Think 70/30 should be a minimum. Regardless of who,s fighting for it. Otherwise whats the point of becoming the number one ranked challenger...he has had a bit of a long road. 70 percent is more than fair to fury to get the fight on.

    I know i wouldnt take that fight for 20 percent. Probably not even 30 percent tbh.

    No humour or banter at all with @Brixton Bomber - probably John Elton in a pinstripe grey suit

    "otherwise whats the point really" - The point would be to make millions of pounds directly from the bout, have a chance to become a world champion against a prestigious opponent and the man of the division, skyrocket your potential earnings via endorsements, earn a lot more in future bouts as the world champion...

    That's the point.

    This is one of the most outrageous posts I've read on the forum!

    The lineal post has to be @Mitch87 's top 5 heavyweights last year - absolutely sensational post

    Someone point me in the direction of this championship winning post. I presume it would be something along the lines of 1. Usyk 2. Joshua 3. Whyte 4. Fury 5. Joyce or something.

    He has done that many it would be impossible to find it - I remember Fury toiling badly in his ratings

    Whats the point in being the champion for someone like whyte is the point i m making. He,s making as much fighting good challengers and getting the win. Winning the belt wont actually make him that much more money...hes never gonna be big time like say joshua.

    Probably make it harder for him to get a fight if anything...if hes handing out 80/20,s to the next guy.

    Its obvious to see the agenda on here against all things eddie hearn. 20 percent for a guy thats beating chisora twice, rivas, parker and povetkin and built a name in the uk. Whats fury done to deserve 80 percent....beat 1 legitimate guy....a guy everyone says is useless.

    80/20,s a derisory offer and holding the title up. Be as well ripping the belts up if thats how its gonna be.....you,ve to get yourself to number one....beating 4 or 5 decent guys...only to get 20 percent to fight the best guy that could finish your career...or give you serious long term problems down the line etc.

    You all complain about favouritism hearns fighters get....i agree with that. Refs, judges, rematch clauses...but in the same token dont mind fury being heavily favouritised in an 80/20 split...which kind of reveals the only agenda is all things eddie hearn.

    Helenius is the tune up. Fury has never faced a Whyte type of fighter as a tube up. It's the Seferis of the world.

    So what was the cause of Tyson and his shenanigans when he beat Wlad? Was that Wlads fault too?

    80/20 is a joke in anyone's book.

    Whyte’s last purse was 300k and the fight before that he got knocked into next week and you’ve actually got someone on here saying they’d turn down 30% if they were Whyte :lol:

    Nothing will beat one of the two big Wilder fans on the main forum post of claiming Wilder's resume was better than Lennox Lewis.

    Who are your top 5 HWs at the moment?

    I’d guess..

    1) Usyk
    2) Joshua
    3) Whyte
    4) Ruiz
    5) Parker
