I'm sure Fury pulls out some time before fight night
I'm sure Fury pulls out some time before fight night
Yeh sounds way too easily made with the way initial fight plans for both Wilder and Fury go. I'd put money on a postponement but at least they got the push on a AJ fight night. Still cannot get the image of Fury going down like a darted giraffe v Cunningham though.
Tyson Fury will have all of the belts by Mayday next year
Warren has publicly stated that THE big press conference to kick start this is happening next Monday in London followed by a few presses over in the US.
They've left this extremely late in the day to give the fight the maximum hype.
At 4am UK time on BT sports PPV I really don't see this doing over 300,000 PPV buys here.
350,000 bcuz Wilder is still unknown even in America
Wilder in his biggest fight to date against Ortiz only sold 14,500 Tickets.
That's pathetic for a Heavyweight Champion.
What amazes me is that he's pure entertainment with a 100% KO ratio.
Just shows how badly he's been promoted.
There hasn't been an American heavyweight champion before Wilder since Shannon Briggs over a decade ago (oops.... did I neglect to mention Charles Martin?), and Briggs defended exactly zero times.
Before that it was a blur of Rahman, Brewster and Ruiz. The last popular, credible American HW champion let's face it was Evander Holyfield, about 100 years ago.
He's undefeated with that amazing KO ratio.
Floyd is gone and let's face it...... Floyd was more hated than admired.
Wilder fills a huge void in boxing's glamour division in the States.
Yet, he fights out of Alabama and sells 15 thousand tickets.
Conclusion: YES. Wilder's promoters are absolutely the worst promoters in the history of mankind.
