so were did wilder get the $$$$$ or is it a pr move ?

I can apply those same things to Canelo v GGG and that fight didn't guarantee $50 mil dollar for either fighter.

 

What i hear is they have given him 24 hours to sign but not given Hearn anything to sign. Also why offer Hearn something he has 24 hours to sign when he is going to sit down with them to discuss this exact fight in 48 hours? If this is a PR stunt it is going to make team Wilder look really stupid in a few weeks when Hearn points out all the wrongs about what the other side are trying to say.

But i did say IF, im not on the PR stunt bandwagon yet but i do feel like something coming from Wilders side is once again a bit fishy. My question really is the money must be coming through Haymon but its a hell of alot of money, atleast 100 million will have to be dished out to the fighters alone and there is still alot to pay for after that, we could be talking up to about 140 million that there is a really good chance he wont be getting back. This is a big fight but to date nobody in America, the UK or anywhere else really cares about Deontay the stats and facts tell you that and if they have control of venue its likely to be in America so atleast half of what Joshua brings to UK fights can be washed away, no 90,000 arena and wave good bye to a hell of alot of PPV revenue. Especially from the pubs.

Is Haymon or a consortium willing to put 140 million of their money in to a pot that they are at risk of never seeing again, it could be super huge, we dont know but enough people have pointed out that neither Joshua or Wilder are huge stars in America which is really where they will be looking to get most that money back. All those thousands of Joshua fans, who arent really Boxing fans as such, will be in bed and will find out the result on the internet and also maybe some ropey youtube copy of the fight, they certainly wont be waking up in the morning and paying their PPV for the morning replay.

 

The amount of money on offer, the timing, the ridiculous deadline, the lack of any dates or venue, all hint to this being nothing more than a calculated move to ridicule Hearn and paint Joshua as a welcher. I suspect its real purpose is to cause breakdowns in the talks on Friday, and thereby free themselves up to make the Breazeale fight without fear of being labelled duckers, since at first glance it looks like they tried to offer Joshua's side everything they wanted in the fight and they refused.

I can't see any genuine attempt to make the fight happen. The lack of any paperwork, guarantees and a twenty-four hour deadline are all designed to make the deal impossible (or highly irresponsible) to accept.
