Comments Thread For: Tyson Fury-Dillian Whyte: WBC Orders Open Negotiating Period For Heavyweight Title Fight

Whyte will get knocked out. Fury will be too much for him. Who wants to bet?

This is something Whyte loves though. He loves feeling his head crash against the canvas. Dude is a ****ing bum and I cant believe he is ranked in the top 10. ****ing bum

****ing crickets on that one bud

Seems unlikely they will agree anything if the WBC won't say what the purse split should be.

The WBC rules state 55/45 split at purse bids.

Won't happen, Whyte will happily take the purse bid split. Doubt Fury will, he'll likely drop the belt and show the world what a ****house he is.

You still about

Has Eddie finally learned how to politick the alphabets? Took him long enough. whyte is Michael Grant with less power and equal chin. And that’s when roided up

[pollywog]

My money is on Fury...

...to fake an injury and pull out 2 weeks before the fight.

Whyte should have been back of the queue after getting flattened by Povetkin. Rematch for the mando slot ???...GTFOH!!!

If he rematched anyone, it should have been the Mighty Oilskin Parker. Where I reckon he would have got flattened also.

Rooting for Whyte, although Fury will probably win.

Whoever wins though, Usyk tops. Fury too.

[takenotes]

I want to see Fury - AJ /// Fury - Usyk or even Fury - Ruiz. This is just a terrible fight

The WBC rules state 55/45 split at purse bids.

If the bout is promoted through purse offer procedures, the purse split will be 55% for the champion and 45% for the interim champion. The WBC may alter this split at its discretion like the consideration of the outstanding marketing value of one of the boxers. The modification of the split will be limited to three categories: 70-30%; 60-40%; and 55-45% for the Champion and challenger, respectively, except in the most exceptional circumstances, in which the split may be modified to 50-50%.


Let's be honest here Whyte hasn't been getting more popular he been getting less popular, his last 3 fights have went from 250k > 175k > ??? respectively.

Tyson Fury without Wilder does worse. What did he have 2k fans for the Wallin fight?
