    But you're arguing this does $100,000,000 + because 'Floyd mayweather did'....

    Where is that US PPV money now?

    UK Annual PPV > US Annual PPV......Where is the US money right now?

    AJ does not need a rematch clause and he will knockout Wilder. AJ being given $50 Million guarantee is great but that means risk of the fight generating $100 is on Wilder. He’ll AJ will happily go to Vegas to knockout Wilder but if Finkel and Haymon are smart about this they better stage the fight at Wembley and sell out the 90,000-100,000 capacity to minimize their risks, UK pay per view. Don’t think US pay per view generates much because Wilder is not a pay per view fighter yet. Big promotional risk but not for Hearn and Wilder. If fight does not generate $100 Million at least then Wilder, Haymon and Funke taking a big hit and subsiding AJ’s guarantee. If it does more than $100 revenue then more gravy for AJ on top of guarantee as he get 50% of the revenue.

    If he turns it down because he wants more money like Wilder did the 12.5?

    Duck right?

    Christ, you guys have been badmouthing Wilder and saying they'd never make an offer.

    You guys have been saying Joshua is a global star.

    Joshua and Wilder's guys are meeting tomorrow. The Wilder offer is known.

    It's the best offer made to date.

    And all you can do NOW - in your panic at the thought it might happen - is talk about how TERRIBLE Wilder-Joshua would do if they put it on PPV.

    And now you have to be convinced that people would actually want to see it.

    It's laughable.

    I need to go now.

    Just keep wringing your hands and telling yourselves nobody wants to see it so Joshua can go back to his comfort zone.

    How are you using the term 'best offer'?

    Considering we know of only this, and the $12.5 million for Wilder.

    Oh, that....

    It was ok 'exposure' i guess, but it didn't make it over here.

    The offer to Joshua was a much bigger blow in all honesty. Made huge media in the US and UK.

    I'm super keen for this fight to happen just so you can fully realise just how stupid you are because at the moment you clearly don't know.

    I also hope they take this offer just to bankrupt Team Wilder as there is not a chance they bring in kind of dough but seeing DiBella, Haymon and Finkel lose their shirts on Deontay will be one of the funniest things to ever happen in boxing.

    I'm not arguing anything.

    I think it's the biggest fight that can be made in boxing, because it is.

    So does Wilder's team. The same guy who put on Floyd's big fights wants to stage it. He believes it, too. And he's done this before.

    You, apparently, think Wilder vs Joshua for all the titles won't be of interest to anyone. And nobody will watch.

    I'll side with the experts.

    And Guaranteed money means Joshua gets his money before the bell even rings. So he has nothing to lose ...

    Except for all his titles and his undefeated record and his claim that he and Hearn call the shots.

    So lets see if they want to make the biggest fight in boxing, or if they want to fight Big Baby Miller next.

    Here we go, making up nonsense again.....

    I didn't say 'nobody wants to see this fight'.....

    I just want to know how Wilder, who hasn't sold a single PPV, is going to become Floyd Mayweather ll for his next fight?

    Is Anthony Joshua the reason?

    UK market is maxed out.
    Thats why Hearn wants to bring AJ to the US. Huge potential there but no big US rival to sell ppvs except Wilder. I believe Hearn's plan all along was to stage this fight in Vegas but not this year. Eddie is bluffing when he says this fight wont do 100M. He's hoping for a lot more than that in 2019

    Hearn clarified that. He said if the fight is built properly he think it could do that. Problem is a fight now has AJ having no build in the US

    Wilder's 40th fight - KO over Ortiz.
    Wilder's 41st fight - KO over Joshua
    Wilder's 42nd fight - KO over Povetkin

    Wilder 50-0!!!

    Yes, there will be no promotion of the fight before it occurs.

    It will do better if he fights Big Baby first.

    Brilliant.

    His money is guaranteed.

    The word is "FRIGHTENED."
