    Let them get 20% of global money plus 100% of Aussie + all NZ TV/pay per view money. If Parker is a draw back at home he'll make millions.

    I've also not done many things that I can have an opinion on jizz breath.

    I've never played professional football but I still discuss who will win a certain game, I've also never been a politician but I still discuss what I think is wrong with politics.

    Why don't you write something that isn't completely moribund peanut head?

    screw all this money crap all u guys sound like promoters. plus its negotiating they started at 60/40. im sure parker will do 70/30... shoot him a counter offer n its prolly a done deal. he will prolly come back with 65/35 and for 2 belt holders that seems fair. and also these guys are gonna travel to the uk most likely so i think they deserve to get compensated for fightin in the other dudes back yard.

    I think the UK expectations of Joshua are higher than NZ expectations of Parker.

    Sure, he could fight anyone and make plenty of money, but Joshua doesn't want to lose the respect of the UK fans by taking on cans.

    Parker would get strongly criticized too if he fought Fujimoto.

    70/30 for Joshua sounds fair.

    70/30 is more than fair.

    Went to AJ's last fight in Cardiff, guy is a monster commercially. You have to see it to believe it, AJ sponsors, his memorabilia and website flashing across the stadium on all the advertising boards. He must be making a killing. Everyone there came to see him, so many casuals who didn't have a clue about anyone else. He is the attraction. Parker has a title and huge following in his small country which would maybe be enough to get him 30%. Wilder if showtime backs him has US tv money, a title and a small following in his own much bigger country. Anthony deserves at least twice due to what he brings to the table. If one of these guys beat the other, then they could come to the table and possibly ask for 40%.

    This. A more than fair deal for both fighters. The winner will have a ton of leverage going into a unification with Wilder.

    Lol...good point, AJ just avoid your primary rival for undisputed HW champ, no reason to fight the best we want to see Chisora and Bellew get their shot. Jeeeezus, is this real life?

    In negotiations, you always start off higher than what you're willing to take obviously.

    Both Parker and Wilder should be offered somewhere around 70-30, im sure Hearn has a good argument for why it could less than 30 for either of them but show a bit of respect for them being world champions and dont let the fights fall apart due to small percentages.

    If 30% isnt enough for either of them id love to hear what it is that makes them think they are worth any more than 20. If they are fighting for the belts then Joshua is putting 3 belts on the table to their 1, if its money they are fighting for then Wilder fights generate fukk all and Parker fights are on Youtube and generate fukk all.

    Hope neither of these fights dont get made because either side is being too gready.

    Its not avoiding him, GGG took like 30% against canelo and he is closer to caneloo in terms of being a draw than wilder is to joshua.

    If wilder is demanding 50-50 then he is the one blocking the fight.
    He probably deserves 15-20 but i think if he is offered 30-70 he should be more than happy,
