Comments Thread For: Wilder: Joshua Would've Accepted $50M Offer If Not For Hearn

Yeah .. and would you have fought Wlad if Finkel hadn't called you "a baby" and said you weren't ready for it - after 33 fights?

Whatever .. you didn't fight Wlad so you're not a unified champ, and AJ is. Deal with it.

BOTH fighters wanted this fight! Eddie Hearn prevented it, prioritising his own needs and ego above his fighters needs. He’s tried to spin it as if Wilder backed out but you would have to be a literal brainwashed ****** to believe that is what happened����

Joshua needs a face-to-face with Mayweather and Pacquiao! He needs to understand when your promoter is good for you, and when your promoter is bad for you! Those two ATGs can give him "lessons learned," on so many topics, that it's in Joshua's best interest to do it! However, now that Floyd and Manny are promoters themselves, Joshua probably can't go anywhere near them!

This Deontay clown still don't get it.
Even when facts are facing him squarely on his face.
He's been making an average of $1.3 mil per fight,
while Joshua has been making more than 10x over.
And this clown has the nerve to blame Hearn.
Why don't you look at your own backyard first?
Why aren't you making the same amount as AJ?

Wilder net worth is close to 20 million I’m sure he’s doing just fine you Hearn stans don’t have to worry about the money. Worry about slow boring AJ turning down 50million because he was scared. Why is his earnings any of you fanboys concerns.

its funny how all these brit twats care about earnings and money and A-side/b-side when they need it to defend a homeland ducker....but when it was canelo? oh man he was the biggest ducking pansy that ever wore trunks.....

Who wouldn’t take 50 mil.

Not just $50 million guaranteed, but 50% of the total revenue on top of the guarantee! That's why Lennox Lewis is so disappointed! This is a duck on a historic level!

... the 1st guy: give me $50 million and I'll sign asap...
... the 2nd guy (on Twitter): I give you $50 million in a 50-50 $100 fight... say "yes" in 24 hours...
... the 1st guy: ... (I should have asked for $100 million)...

That just means it's a 50% split.

Even Wilder die hard fans know that Wilder ain't worth 50% just because the fight sells well.

For me it’s who they fight in the mean time, Povetkin should be a tougher fight than Breazeale. Whoever fighters the tougher competition, given they don’t take too much punchment, is going to get better and that probably pays out better for Joshua, long as he fights his mandatories, no volenteries unless it’s a step up, Joshua gonna get better and better, so to me the longer they wait the better for him cause wilder probably has the edge now.. Joshua just has to keep going to the body more and more and start throwing more upper cuts

That means if the fight made $150 million in total revenue, Joshua makes $75 million, not $50 million! He could not make anything less than $50 million, but he could make more! Wilder does not deserve 50%, and he was willing to take 40%! He just wanted to make a bigger split than Joseph Parker did, and he does deserve that! Unfortunately, no one knows what Parker got! Hearn denied that Parker got 30%, but he never said what Parker actually got!
