Is Fury-Wilder unprecedented?

[SUBZER0ED]

- -Never claimed otherwise.
If I wanted an easy win for peanuts, I'd fight U cornflakes and sugarpops...

don't be so sure of yourself, honey suckle.

No, Top Rank never said he failed to activate it. Read the legal documents. They claimed he had until October to stage it and because the fight didnt happen by then they claimed it was "expired," but TR couldn't claim that due to the pandemic and the fact they personally pushed it back a few times.

Both TR and Wilder's Team have stated on the record that a step-aside was never requested and never offered.

- -Never mentioned a word about TRank, I mentioned the mainstream media. Obvious Bobfather in his decrepit near 90 yr old carcass was playing both ends against the middle.

AJ and Hearns shouldn't touch Fury or Arum again. He's as done as Wilder but too stoopid to know it, so give em their peanut shells and clean out the rest of the division that they have already near finished.

It’s also come to light that team fury never even came forward with a step aside fee for wilder and bear in mind fury was in line to earn well over a 100 million for the Joshua fight.
the whole situation has been messed up by fury and his team and I don’t blame wilder really...fury has been messing about to much with trying to dodge his agreed contract with wilder and this fight could have been taking care off beginning of the year and we would not be in this position now.
I also feel the the WBC has been implicit in this as well by not pushing harder by giving a fury a time frame to honour.
it’s seems to me arum and fury are trying to salvage as much money as they can before they face Joshua when in reality the planned Joshua fight would have more than made up for it.
That’s a cheap mentality

- -i report what I read in the media, and there was a media countdown on the rematch clause. Maybe he made that private that fits in with the shady, non transparent organization of boxing.

Pov tested positive for nanograms of a legal substance that was suddenly banned, not enough to kill a fight. That generated two counter civil suits resulting in a draw.

As I mentioned, Deyonce was supposed to take step aside money for Fury AJ, but he obviously got greedy, so now he back to fighting for peanuts again.

- -No, a private reactivation that only came to light during the civil suit by way of deposition...

What came to light were the numerous emails from Top Rank asking PBC to push it back to 2021 so they can have a gate and fans.

- -Gate and fans is same thing. What came to light is Bobfather double dealing with his Big Goof.

I think MTK was doing some dipping as well.

Arum had to know the possibility regarding arbitration. The risk, balanced with the benefit of having the issue resolved in a set amount of time. After all, that's what arbitration really is good for. I'm not so sure that Fury was so inclined. He may have thought that arbitration was a sure thing, and that at worst there was no way the Joshua fight could be made in time for him to fight again.

honestly sometimes the most logical explanation is that people are operating truthfully. I don't see a motivation Fury to think otherwise than stated above.

under those conditions I wonder if Fury thought better of giving Wilder pass money. If he figured he'd be fighting Wilder anyway, then faced with having to deal with giving Wilder a large sum of money, it was probably easy for him to assume he would just go in there and spark wilder out... then his dad probably saw him being real lax...
