    How much does Parker earn from POV in NZ and Aus? I would not think it would be much?

    I think the percentage is there to incentivise both camps to hype the fight. We live in an age of hype. I know people who religiously tuned into the McGregor/Mayweather promotions but then couldn't care less when the actual fight came around.

    If Parker was given a flat fee what's to stop him from training elsewhere, flying in on fight week and answering all interview questions monotoned.

    This is exactly what Ward did in the Kovalev fight, Ohara Davies did a similar thing in the Josh Taylor fight too.

    Well no actually the 60/40 start came from Duco so........

    Is that Boxing scene calling??? They seem to be looking for their idiot back...

    FYI this thread isn't about your obsession with Wilders ****...

    OK got that off my chest.. Its good to see some real negotiations seem to be happening...

    I would think Parker will accept 30% because his camp is far more realistic about where they stand...

    "We're not going to sell the title"....lol, so much confidence there from the Parker camp.

    Parker and Wilder should take this fight for 10% if it was the only way to make this happen.

    Neither have earnt an 'AJ payday', but should they win, they will get AJ style paydays.
