Wilder-Fury Purses? $4m Wilder/$3m Fury - What did he refuse for Joshua? $15m?

I read the other day that Wilder was getting $12million and Fury $8 million with PPV revenue on top of that

ESPN (quoted in the opening post here) is very reliable.

Not familiar with ESPN it seems. People look thirsty trying to spin this. He’ll get 10+ million for this fight and then AJ can’t offer a flat fee with no venue, no date again. Or really not offer. The whole world saw what happened except the UK it seems. When people disagree with you 100 to 1 you probably should reconsider your stance. If Wilder wins emphatically and it does 500k PPV sales at 74.95 he is looking at 50/50 at worst. The negotiations went exactly as Eddie wanted. I can show him saying exactly that he didn’t want it until Spring 2019 at the earliest long ago.

TYSON FURY will pocket the biggest cheque of his career when he steps inside the ring to face Deontay Wilder.

Fury’s second world title fight will earn him a cool £8million ($10.25million), a figure which dwarves his payday he received for his 2015 bout with Wladimir Klitschko.

Still think it's a smart investment type fight for him. Very winnable and literally the only time an opponent has actually brought a 'following' of their own to a Wilder fight. Besides why not wait and build to AJ, bit like asking a guy if he'd rather be hit in the face with a feather duster or a bucket of concrete.

There is no way Wilder gets fifty percent of a Joshua fight unless Haymon puts up some astronomical purse to try and buy the title and gives Wilder half of it. The economics and the relative earning power of the two fighters (not even going into the alphabet belts or the lineal title) mean that Joshua gets the lion's share.

From everything I read, AJ and his people nixed the fight, not Wilder. DEFINITELY don’t think AJ scares either of these guys, and agree with Fury when he says AJ is just a body builder with unique/gimmick training habits. Fury and Wilder are the two best heavyweights in my opinion. Joshua beat an expired Wlad and struggled with the smaller Parker.
