    Wilder and Haymon insisted all his defences were in the US against bought and paid for Haymon / King fighters ... again it's not Americans ... just Wilder.

    The non casuals like the idea of boxing being a world sport which part of world champion did you not understand .. previous generations of US champions weren't scared of travelling.

    Two Americans fighting a big fight in the World ...

    The Thriller in Manila
    The Rumble in the Jungle

    ..
    you were against them ?? those were champions to be proud of.



    So the cheque overrode the desire for British fans to have the first undisputed championship on home shores….got it. And the cheque for Joshua and fury in England or Wales will now be as large as the Saudis we’re going to pay…got it. You’re doing too much. I actually physically laughed when you said something about casuals lol. You’re not a vindictive little teenage girl in an argument nor are you a bitter old woman. Don’t act like either. You’re just doing too much.

      Is Fury even currently licensed to box in the UK?

        I'd be surprised, if Saudi Arabia want it it's theirs. They've got too much money to play with.

          I am glad Bob is thinking like this. They are obviously overlooking Wilder which will play right into Deontay hands. I can see one or two scenarios playing out in this fight. Either Tyson Fury fights cautiously and does just enough to win or just be so overconfident and complacent that he hardly fights at all and gets stopped.

            This is not a good sign for Tyson Fury. He is coming into this fight with a distraction in his mind. So he won't be one hundred percent prepared and focused solely on Deontay Wilder which is very good news for the Bronze Bomber because Fury is underestimating him by looking ahead.

              I wouldn’t think fury is thinking like this, more his promoters which is really their job. Wilder has his own promotion company so he gets to keep more of his purse than fury does who has two official promoters he has signed with. It would be intersting to see how much of fury’s purse he keeps with having to spring for both Warren and Arum..

                I don't care where they fight, but the UK would be a lesser draw. Fury cultivated an American audience and he'd be wasting it, doing a block party back in London. The UK audience is guaranteed wherever they fight. Saudi Arabia can pay the bill, but America can double the revenues. Fury has tapped the mother lode, If he wins in Vegas again, he has home field advantage there too.

                  There is no other place in the universe that a potential Fury-Joshua should be other then the UK.

                    Fury has every reason to fight in Vegas which would be a serious culture shock for AJ. The Vegas press know and like Fury. In Britain he faces all the anti-traveller stuff the tabloids pump out and is basically treated as lesser to AJ.
