The Wilder Excuses Begin

Wilder will bring huge US TV ppv money compared to Wlad.

Now give him 40%.

Showtime are going to sell this PPV in the states, in the afternoon? Or is the fight going to happen at silly o'clock UK time to align? That would have a knock on the UK market surely?

Explain how this happens.

I'd be surprised if this fight doesn't cater to US time as they are really trying to push wilder mainstream here. It will be interesting to see what happens time wise, they did Vlad fights in the afternoon here. Actually an afternoon showing would be more convenient for me but they usually don't consult with me about air times

Bottom line is that Wilder needs more fights like the Ortiz one to build his profile more, the Barclays Centre wasn't even sold out for the Ortiz fight and it only holds 18,000 people.

Joshua's last 3 fights have pulled in around 250,000 people.

Those figures and the fact Josh holds 3 of the 4 belts tell us all we need to know.

Wilder and his people are shit businessmen, they should have jumped at the chance to be ringside on Sky Sports the other week and taken the Whyte fight without even thinking about it whether it was in the UK or the USA.

Shows you just how potent Eddie Hearn is at promoting

Deontay Wilder has nowhere near the clout that AJ has. I'm talking promotional clout. AJ also has far far better names on his resume. There is no way wilder should be getting more than 40% of the purse.

I think Wilder has accepted 40%.

That's interesting news. I just threw that number out there 40% but if this is true now what you're saying that was a pretty good guess on my part. I mean AJ has fought Wladimir Klitschko but who has Wilder fought? Bermane Stiverne and Ortiz are his two best wins and that is not saying much although Ortiz did very well for himself at the age of 41. Perhaps AJ should demand 65% and force Wilder into a 35% humiliation. In the end Wilder will have to accept if he wants to continue with his career
