Wilder has been getting great ratings in the USA for years. Does Spence have a fan base while getting half the viewers?

Sure, Wilder v Fury could flop. Neither has proven to be a PPV draw. But very few fighters currently have proven to be a PPV draw. Hopefully it does flop. F PPV. But let’s be real, people have tuned in for Wilder for years. And Fury will get people talking. A real HW champ fighting a real HW champ is a rare thing. Enjoy it. Hopefully it’s a double KO.
Real heavyweight champ? Please. Did you purposely ignore the other thread about Fury being champ?

Fury retired to deal with his addiction and depression/ drug ban. You may not want to recognise his retirement/ ban, but only if you see nothing wrong with cheating.
