That's because Americans won't be paying for this fight...especially at 5pm.Bob mentioned the revenue of the fight coming from U.K. ppv sales....he doesn’t mention any revenue from the USA lol. Speaks volumes....I can remember a time that no sports fan in the USA missed Naseem Hamed fights and no dedicated boxing fan missed a Lewis fight, or a Bruno vs McCall, or a Benn fight etc etc.
Wilder-Fury 2 set a record for gate revenue, as well as did 800-850K in ppv sales. They'd have to get 2.7 million buys from the UK just to equal out the ppv buys.
It's mind-boggling when you think of who's advising Fury to try to weasel his way out of a third fight.Comment

I agree but it won't be as bad as it is when fans are being told an announcement will be made soon.
Arum came out hours later detailing the fight after saying that to Hearn . Without pressure from one of the promoters like Hearn , Arum would take his time . Hearns trying to get at least a contract signed . If they weren't talking about the fight people would complain anyway .
I'm just saying all that talk needs to stop from the promoters until it's literally a done deal. Not when there's no date or venue and Fury's doing interviews implying that he doesn't fancy it yet.Comment

I’m curious to see how much revenue comes out of the U.K. for a fight like this during the Rona era. The bigger money has always been in the USA, this fight will not produce any significant revenue in the USA. I won’t be watching it, I don’t order fights that have anything to do with “PPV is dead” Edward Hearn. Fury is right, this is the pandemic era, there is no telling when this fight happens and how much will be lost on it

It is a shame seeing Fury sit on the sidelines for over a year. What a waste of talent. He had what it took to be the greatest heavyweight ever.
Signing with Arum is going to ruin the rest of his career. Just like at Terrance Crawford.Comment

He could’ve signed with Hearn in the beginning and fought better guys ,however if he did he would have had to fight A.J .
Signing with Arum probably helped him because he gained a cult following defeating Wilder while enabling him to say he’s the best of the era which he doesn’t have to prove because the U.S fans are very gullible .
He would lose to A.J and in the instance he does he will go from a great fighter to an overated one , if he can’t beat A.J he was no good all this time . I’m using the logic around here of course. In one breath Fury can defeat Lewis and in the other a.J stands no chance against Lewis even though he defeats Fury .Comment
