The Wilder Excuses Begin

[Primo Carnera]

Looks like AJ has been reading my posts. “If Team Wilder think it’s a $100million fight, MAKE A COUNTER OFFER!”

Wilder should carry on defending his title and just continue to make noise to irritate AJ and Eddie.

Eventually everyone will pressurise AJ to accept the fight and pay Wilder more than they really want.

AJ will get bored of mandatories and poor defences no matter how sky sells it.

Dude seriously you cant be saying this shit with a straight face, tell me you're on a massive wind up?

I am very serious. It is high stakes poker.

And you know about high stakes poker now, like you do about assessing the value of a fight.

The thing that is annoying me is that both camps are discussing it differently, AJ is offering a money up front deal Wilder is requesting a % split.

We can only speculate on how much the fight will make so when we are talking in percentages it is sheer guess work.

why doesnt Eddie say we are offering £12m which we believe is equal to a 25% split"

Why doesn't Wilder say "we will accept a 40/60 split which we believe is equal to £30m"

I know that as fans we have no right to concern themselves with the financials during negotiations but it would be interesting to see just how far apart they both actually are.

So Shelly is reported as saying “Team Wilder are gonna make a counter offer in the next couple of days!”
I cannot fucking wait! Only it won’t be an offer, will it?
What it’ll be is “GIVE US X AMOUNT” or WE’LL TAKE X %”
That is not an offer, that is saying “you give us”.
An offer is “We’ll give you” .
Be prepared for a lot more shit talk from all parties.
