    At this moment in time , Wilder v Fury would sell more than Wilder v Haye or Joshua, but only because Fury IS World Champion.
    And Besides, Wilder hasn't convinced the States yet either, that's why last weekend he was adamant that he would be more than happy to come over here for a Fury fight. There's more money for him here than in the States at the moment.
    If Fury didn't have a title, Wilder wouldn't give him a second glance.

    Haye had the benefit of big promotion? He and Adam Booth went alone from the start, fighting on several different small hall promoters bills. He's never been with a superpower promotional outfit.

    Fury is an excellent self-promoter. His fame has nothing to do with his boxing skill.

    If Fury is the new Floyd (lol) I suggest he needs to start by moving to Vegas.

    Well as experienced as you are at managing world class fighters I think Fury is doing fine. Hes only 27 and has years ahead of him and his first world title fight was in front of 50 odd thousand fans, a pay per view (younger than Floyd in his first pay per view) and beating an all time great to boot. Hes also the most talked about fighter in the world

    I never said Fury wasn't doing well.

    If he's the next Mayweather - as you confidently claim - then he's gonna make hundreds of millions and reign unbeaten for donkey's years. Therefore, to make the dough, he needs Las Vegas casinos and American PPV TV money.

    So far he's never single-handedly headlined/carried a major show in Britain. The 50,000 German fans were Wlad's, hence why Fury has to go back to Germany. It was reported that AJ-Whyte did more PPV buys than Fury-Wlad.

    He's definitely the most talked about fighter in your head.

    Where did I say hes the next Mayweather?

    Hes already one up on Mayweather in his career path anyway, beating Klitschko is better than beating Gerano Hernandez.

    I said his career will build like Mayweathers (you can clearly see I said that but chose to interperate ad you please) where not many took much notice at the start of their career but as time goes on he will be huge.

    Trust me , Floyd was always a superstar in the making and when he turned pro, everyone took notice. He was World Champ in his 18th Fight and within 2 years of turning pro and at a younger age than Tyson Fury as well as winning an Olympic Bronze medal , where he was controversially robbed.
    I don't know how or where he is one up on Mayweather's career path?
    please note , I'm not making the comparison, you are. I'm just justifying my comments.

    Mayweather was a world champ for 8 years before he was pay par view material and then he needed Gattis name to do that.

    You made the comparison between Fury and Floyd.

    So what you meant was - in say 10 years time Fury will be boxing's biggest superstar, still unbeaten and the richest fighter on the planet? Fair enough, time will tell.

    At the moment Fury has to prove he's not Buster Douglas.

    I'd stop bringing up the PPV thing if I was you. If you're gonna judge fighters by the speed they achieved PPV status then AJ has become a PPV fighter in 2 years. Fury is yet to be the A-side on a major promotion.

    Yes he has to prove it wasn't a flash in the pan like buster, let's face it wlad landed 4punches per round and went 12 rounds , this is a fighter who had been stopped 3 times in the past and the last time was 11 years ago.
    You can only beat who is in front of you but wlad is 39 not exactly in his prime so let's not get carried away yet.
