If Wlad offers Haye 40%........

The fact of the matter is it is complicated. Does that mean Wlad get's 60% of Sky PPV's? 60% of PPV's on HBO? 60% of gate receipts even if it's at Wembley or in the US? Does he get 60% of everything plus home advantage?

 

Voted Haye, but Id rather see Vitali get first shot at Haye. What a way to retire with a big name for his last fight. CHEF, do you know why Vitali didnt call out Haye first?

 

They need to be asked though.

Has Germany got a PPV boxing channel?

 

@ CHEF - I was just thinking, if Wlad does have a mando to fill with Povetkin, even if Povetkin decides he doesn't want to take the shot, doesn't he still have to fulfill his mandatory? (I.e, doesn't the shot go to Sam Peter?)

 

Not true. Depending on the details in terms of PPV split, if it was purely purse split and Haye said no, then I blame Haye. As do several other Haye fans who have already posted on this thread.

 

50-50 is fair imo unless the 40% adds upto a good deal more than Haye would earn for another opponent.

 

I'm sure he would get a lump-sum for airing it on freeview TV though? The thing is, PPV's probably should be split differently and gate-receipts too depending on where it is.

Personally, I think Wlad should get majority of that lump sum - if he does indeed get one - from it being on German TV, and Haye should get the majority of Sky PPV's. If it's in Germany, obviously most fans are turning up to see Wlad, so he gets the majority of gate receipts, if it's in London, vice versa. And the away fighter gets a bigger cut than normal.

I'd say something like 70-30 Wlad for German TV money, 60-40 Haye for UK money. Then:

UK - Gate Receipts = 60/40 Haye
Purse = 70/30 Wlad

Germany - Gate Receipts = 60/40 Wlad
Purse = 55/45 Wlad

 

My post represents that Wlad gets the majority share overall, given he is the HW champion of the world afterall, it's only fair.

 

Haye could make the argument that he deserves a 50-50 split. He's a champ too. And it's a hard sell to say that 50-50 is somehow unfair to Wlad. If Wlad really really wants it, wouldn't a half and half be a reasonable consolation?

But, I sort of think that all fights should be 50-50 deals. Or, some sort of winner loser split.

 

60/40 i whoop your ass
