"We're not paying Wilder to step aside," Arum told ESPN on Monday. "It's better to get rid of him and go about our business. We can make the Fury-Joshua fight for November or December."
Arum noted that Top Rank has reserved Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas for a Fury-Wilder fight July 24.

So Fury vs Wilder III will likely take place in July. I'd guess Joshua vs Usyk would take place around that time as well.
This is something TR has been planning for some time.
That’s a big risk. Fury could lose or get hurt and then he costs him and Arum a lot of dough.
My question is what if they push Wilder to make the fight quickly and he tries to delay it or wants a tune up?
Hopefully the ruling is clear enough with that short timeframe.
But hey if Wilder really wants that third fight quickly and they both sign for the summer then respect him. He likely loses again.
Those remarks from Arum were yesterday ,you should read your own links maybe ?
"We're not paying Wilder to step aside," Arum told ESPN on Monday. "
That says MONDAY right ,yesterday ? :lol1:
The ESPN article came out yesterday around the same time as Mannix tweet. When the ESPN article first came out it said Bob Arum was unavailable for comment. Then the article was updated and that's where Bob said they aren't paying any step-aside and they got the July 24 date reserved in Vegas. None of that was in original article.
W/L/D...Fury should get an AJ fight next (IF a 3rd fight must happen now).
Let Usyk fight Wilder
and another guy since there's a Fury AJ rematch clause.....
Oh stop the stupidity you posted something where the quotes were from yesterday in an article from today and Arum giving his current statements today after the decision .
Where YESTERDAY he said he would follow whatever the arbitration decides when the dec was NOT decided yet that you are stating was today ? :lol1:
It's still Monday in half of the US right now. :dunce:

Not Monday in Cali, but if that was from yesterday, when exactly do you think Mannix tweeted that?
There was nothing I "twisted" here.
No he took direct quotes from Arum after the decision today .
What the OP posted was yesterday who is you twisting things .
How could Mannix twist anything’ if the decision was just announced and arum calling it preposterous ? :lol1:
What the hell are you talking about? What I posted is from TODAY and I posted the article.
Bob Arum calls the arbitrators ruling on Fury-Wilder a "preposterous decision." Says the plan is to move ahead with Fury-Joshua in August and try to sell Wilder on facing the winner in November/December.

Wilder needs to demand the fight period. Fury has said he has Wilder's ass, mojo, soul and balls in his pocket... Wilder surely wants redemption, he can't go out like that.
There's no guarantee he'll ever get another shot at Fury after the Fury Joshua fight. This could be his only chance.
I heard Arum say that too, but he also said Wilder would never win the legal case
And he also said they're not paying Wilder to step aside. And that they have reserved Allegiant Stadium for July 24.
Top Rank matchmaker Bruce Trampler let it slip yesterday that Fury was fighting in July.
Exactly! Posted the same thing in another thread, it make no sense if you know you can beat him again just get it out the way run it back for the Trilogy and if he wins again the Fury vs AJ fight is even BIGGER especially here in the States

Mannix's twist was before the Kriegel article was posted.
