Comments Thread For: Arum on Fury-Joshua: Fight is 'Dead in The Water' For July, August

[lion33lit]

Hype man promoter Hearn has done his job inspiring the Fury Delusionals in dismissing & disregarding everything about Wilder! Hearn is a true “promoter” at heart!

Excuses aside, Wilder did nothing wrong. He was ALWAYS entitled to a 3rd fight with the guy who cheated him twice. Which made the contentious dismissive nature of the Fury lovers towards Wilder amazing to see & read time & time again!

Too bad Fury can’t play the role of his dismissive intentionally blind fans - not for much longer anyway. Reality is of course settling in. Hearn Arum & crew was always focusing on “money” - not LEGALLY binding contract reality!...Fury has to undeniably deal with the guy he cheated TWICE! ...VEEERRYY exciting indeed!! ...Josh can go test his skills on a (IMO) superb boxer in Usyk....Usyk -vs- Ruiz would be sick!

Am I seeing BIGZ44 in an argument? Wtf is the world coming to?

This guy is nuts lol, I don't have the time to go into it with him any further.

What a load of bollocks. Both of these con men

But Hearn earlier today was still confident of getting a deal done. Doesn't look good, at least for the chances of this fight happening next. They can come back and try to get it on at the end of the year.

Fury vs Wilder
Joshua vs Usyk

Or do you guys prefer other fights?

At this point? I would take Joshua versus that Cub scout who has a mean left hook... Of Mayweather versus Fury's right leg

How many times is Bob going to get stiffed by the Saudis and other Arabs before he gets it? Forget the Middle East! Their fans are boring anyway. No energy. Might as well fight in front of a crowd of sloths. Texas is open, put the fight in Dallas stadium.

REDEEMER looks dumber and dumber with each passing day.

I fear our boy will still be battling 100% . He may get one right yet, but this one is looking like another redumber special.

Over the course of the week, this has gone from sounding like Arum was using public pressure to get Hearn to budge on some final details to sounding like the arbitration meeting has thrown a wrench in things.

Get ready for Fury-Wilder III

[KP1]

Hmmm, but only yesterday on here did I read Arum saying there wasn’t a deal, now there is but will take too long for his liking, more lies from Arum yet everybody will believe him again because it suits an agenda.

One side and one side only have flip flopped and poured doubt over this, starting to look like they got ***** slapped in legal proceedings tbh.

The arbitration has nothing to do with what Arum said . Wilder could fight Fury next if Fury wants the fight . Arum said Wilder lost the case months ago forcing a fight . I think Wilder will fight someone else ,I would be surprised if he wants an immediate third fight anyway with a new team around him .

I too thought it was a dead issue but it is not. The arbitration has NOT been decided yet. There have been a few articles recently here & other websites that say the decision would be finalized in a May hearing. I’m no expert on this arbitration stuff but it seems Wilder has had rumours of fighting again but nothing confirmed. Fury/Joshua hasn’t been finalize & neither has the Usyk/Joyce fight. All 3 of these fights are directly affected by what happens in the Wilder/Fury arbitration case. I could be wrong but everything changes if that hearing goes in Wilder’s favour. Wilder will want his rematch or a 8 digit step aside fee & until this is finalized it will be more of these Hearn announcements “in a week or so everything will be done”. I been reading that for months now. I have said all along that until the Wilder court challenge has a decision neither team should be making plans....

Wilder finkel and haymon met John skipper of DAZN and were offered 100 million to fight Joshua, well before the fury vs wilder fight. But don't let the facts get in the way of your little story

Wilder was never offered 100 million to fight AJ. Funny you tell someone not to let facts get in the way,, spec in their eye, tree in yours.
