    DAZN offered Wilder 100m for 3 fights deal.

    DEVELOPING: John Skipper offered Deontay Wilder a 3-fight deal worth roughly $100M to fight on DAZN yesterday, per sources. Wilder co-manager Shelly Finkel confirmed money “in that ballpark.” Dominic Breazeale at $20M, then two fights with Anthony Joshua valued around $40M per


    Wilder and his team are deliberating. One thing is certain: he will defend his heavyweight title against Dominic Breazeale next. A press conference will be held Tuesday in New York. We wait to find out if the fight will land Showtime PPV or DAZN.

      20m for breazele & 40mx2 for Joshuax2 is a ridiculous offer. If wilder turns this down I never want to hear from him or his fanboys ever again.

          That’s a good deal, if showtime/Fox match that offer then obviously they would be staying there. I don’t even think they need to match it. If they come close to it then he would probably prefer to stay there.

            Jesus, if true, and with no hidden clauses (which I doubt there would be) you have to take this.

              How on earth could they match it? Who would they have him fight for 100m or anywhere close?

                Wilder will take the deal and PBC/Haymon will be fine with it.

                If all goes well, Wilder can escape with all the belts and become the top draw in the sport in the process. Which will create a second bidding war.

                They would possibly even just join PBC and give Al Haymon dates on DAZN for his fighters which will only give him more leverage in boxing. It will also then open up a ***** ton of match ups on multiple platforms.

                ESPN would be possibly either frozen out, or forced to give in in order to make fights which will only be better for boxing. All networks open to all fighters. Match up haven for top fights. Lesser fighters can remain exclusive.

                  ... "If all goes well, Wilder can escape with all the belts and become the top draw in the sport in the process."...

                  Wilder doesn't even need to escape with all belts or whatever -- he'll get more than enough money in order to lose interest in fighting and retire peacefully...
