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

[Boro]

How many PPV's did Fury sell with Chisora?

Aren't you funny you know fine well they were fighting at domestic level and didn't have a gifted gold to prop up the hype for them so it wasn't PPV smartass...

Doesn't change what I said now does it AJ vs Parker done nearly 400k more then when he fought Wlad, but with the almighty ever popular Whyte he only adds 20k strange really considering you're making out he's a major draw which he isn't.

And BTW I've never said Fury was a draw (he isn't) but based on his numbers he averagely performs better then Whyte even though 2/3 of his PPV have been at like 4am in the UK.

Fury will run from Shyte not a chance he takes this and he already knows this for 3 reasons….

1.Whyte most probably has a better source of wild boar meat than him
2. He wants to fight Trevor Bryan at MGM Grand and sell out Row A only
3. if he can’t get Bryan he will probably lean towards Robert Helenius in Manchester and claim he couldn’t do business with Whyte.

Won't believe it until it is singed. These two are always in some type of drama.

Domestic level? They were both top 10 rated. How many PPVS has Fury sold where he was the clear A-side? Fury isn't a draw, stop pretending he is. The fight will be in the UK, Whyte has shown he's a bigger draw. He's sold more tickets and PPV's than Fury has. Facts are facts,

[REDEEMER]

Whyte done even less #s against AJ then Fury did against Klitschko and their both boring fighters... and still hasn't come close to them numbers since, he's a joke as an attraction you need to get off his tail bro.

Whyte is carrying the fight over in the U.K he sells over there ,Fury as far as we’ve seen never did . Fury demands of 80% is a duck if he still persues that stance . The promotion knows it needs Whyte badly to stage this fight if it doesn’t want to once again lose money on Fury .

[Cyborg Fangerloo]

Purely from an intrigue standpoint I would far rather see him fight Joyce, Usyk, or Joshua. I just don’t see how Whyte wins this one

[James Hunt]

Interesting that arbitration is no longer the problem?
What's behind all this?

No he hasn't his biggest PPV is 475k against Parker and Parker was coming off 1.85m against AJ like I said before AJ Biggest PPV. altogether about (1.8m buys across 6 fights)

Fury's is 550k against Wlad (1m buys over 2 fights[the two that've been reported thus far]) and yes it was a domestic level fight with Chisora, both fights with Chisora were for the British title... if that doesn't constitute domestic level I don't know what does quite frankly...

As for your clear A side BS Whyte has never been a clear A side in any fight that was PPV, though you could say he arguably was against Rivas which was his 2nd worst performing PPV that's been reported anyway.

I agree he should get the standard 30% of a mando otherwise as you said Fury is clearly ducking him I have no issues admitting to that.

Love it. Now the world will get to see how much of a chump Fury is when he pulls out with another lame excuse or a fake injury. He is cornered now though and Whyte is waiting hungrily for his shot. Fury wanted so badly to get cruiserweight Usyk in there to try and bully him. But the WBC finally grew a pair and ordered the fight. The next few months will be interesting indeed.
