    Maybe it's accurate, maybe it isn't. Good reason to negotiate percentages instead of dollar figures.
    I don't have a problem with that, that's Wilder's decision to make.

    What I'm struggling with is the premise that $12.5m represents a derisory offer that's closer to 20% than it is 40%.

    I spoke to a Kiwi guy I used to work with yesterday about this and he was in the 'Wilder isn't getting paid enough' camp. His basis, Parker got 13 million, Wilder should get more. Fuck off did Parker get 13 million I say. Yeah.....yeah......13 million New Zealand Dollars!!

    Now I'm not suggesting anyone here is that stupid, but it does highlight the point that numbers are being thrown about with little care or thought.

    There seems to be this idea that the fight is worth vastly more than it actually is and no one wants to say where that money is coming from. Master will but he just makes up nonsense.
