How come Deontay Wilder doesn't have commercial endorsements like Canelo, GGG & Joshua?

    You're missing Pacquiao's Hennessy ads, his Nike ads, his Nestle Butterfinger ads, his Under Armour ads, his magazine covers, his Mexican beer commercials, and his omnipresence on American talk shows and sports shows. And GGG's endorsements for Nike, Hublot, Chivas, the House of Bijan, Apple, and his many appearances on TV.

    Your point that the endorsements are not there is not correct. But a boxer needs a clean image and competent management team to pursue them.

    Yes. Haymon's form contract was made public during the recent Golden Boy lawsuit. You can easily find it on the internet.

    One of the key provisions of that contract was also the subject of a lawsuit brought against Haymon by Top Rank, which Top Rank won. It had to do with Haymon's approval of a boxer's choice of promoter, which provision has since been removed by Haymon because of the lawsuit.

    An appearance on a TV program is not a commercial endorsement.

    Wait... Golovkin has Apple and Nike commercials? Haha. OK. Maybe filmed for internet ad space but I've never seen him in a commercial aside from advertising for his Canelo and Lemieux PPV's.

    Pacquiao had the Nike ad for a few months was it in 2014, you are correct about that. Under Armour, Mexican beer, and Butterfinger... def are not in America unless their air time was 3 weeks and I missed it.

    And, once again, being on talk shows is not a commercial endorsement. And I'd love to tell you which countless of those he ever appeared on, haha. Jimmy Kimmel and First Take once or twice. Uh, cool?

    I had no respect for you before, and now I have even less, if you deny basic facts. And if you don't understand that TV appearances are publicity, I can't help you.

    If you think publicity and commercial endorsements are the same thing... well, thank you. I won.

    I just looked it up and the Pacquiao/Under Armour rumors were simply rumors that nothing came out of. Nobody wanted to touch him after Nike canned him once he said "gay humans are less than animals."

    "special digital ad campaign" for Butterfinger Cups. Like I had said, online ad-box advertising that most pop-up and ad-block programs completely hide, maybe. Forgive me for not really counting that. Technically, Chad Dawson gets endorsements if we are going that route, ha.

    And no Under Armour like you had claimed.

    The Pistachio deal lasted about 6 months.

    Nike sh*t canned him for character issues, oddly enough what you claimed was the key to endorsements.

    Perhaps I’m missing something, but nothing I found on Haymon’s contract that became public thru that lawsuit (which was dismissed btw) says he gets a percentage of boxer’s outside income from endorsements or acting or whatnot. I’m not saying it’s not there, butI can’t find it (and saw summaries of said contract and certain portions published, but I didn’t find a complete contract).

    I did see every report on the contract made a point of saying that it’s likely that every contract with every fighter probably contains some variations to the one obtained ... which is to say, they are not all alike.

    Wilder is not legit, he is not respected, most everyone knows Wilder is a fake! Perhaps Wilder should endorse wine, as he should be an wine expert from fighting so many winos from they alley! This is Wilder, I love winos, buy Ripple!

    Go on Youtube and type in "Mike Tyson advert"

    He had many endoresments from the 1980s. He was a global superstar.

    This. Wilder isn't really advertiser friendly. Wilder seems to like to say what he wants when wants, which doesn't really endear you to sponsors.
