The fact is asking for 80% is avoiding a fight in this situation,you asked what evidence is there he’s avoiding or not enthusiastic about Whyte ,well there you go .

No see you know you’re swerving the question here . It’s simple . Fury will struggle the most in this one ,yes or no ? I figured he should win but he’s going to be in a real war here . Whytes an easy fight right ?Comment

What promoter doesn't try and get the best pay for there fighter? The FACTS are, if they don't agree to terms then it goes to a purse bid, I don't get how you don't get this, there will be no Joyce fight anytime soon, it's fury v Whyte no-matter what happens with the percentages, again u have given me no facts whatsoever, just a bias opinionComment

The irony in your lil quote here is every single opponent apart from Rivas and Chisora who is basically PPV on his own has come directly off a fight with AJ so Whyte hasn't proven anything over then he can fight AJs leftovers...80-20..they outta their damn mind lol. Has Fury even headlined a PPV in the UK before? They were struggling to find money for his UK homecoming last December against Kabayel, which then got shelved. I believe Whyte has headlined at least three PPVs, and he’s the most commercially viable option for Fury outside of AJ. I genuinely don’t think he fills a stadium against the likes of Joe Joyce. Vast gap in ability aside, I imagine this has to be 70-30 at least and more like 65-35 unless this is going to purse bid.
The Rivas fight done 200k buys which is like what equivalent to 60k buys in America and the Povetkin fight done even worse then that. Plus they didn't release the numbers on the Povetkin rematch so that tells you all you need to know, this is why they're saying he doesn't deserve the unrealistic 45% they're wanting...
They both aren't stars on their own but realistically Whyte is trending downwards in terms of popularity and Fury has never been popular and it remains to be seen if beating Wilder has changed his "popularity" in any noticeable way at least in the UK...
P.S. they (team Whyte) probably want it to go to purse bid according to the WBCs own rules the minimum he can get is 30%Last edited by Boro; 12-14-2021, 12:02 PM.Comment

I'm not betting on something that vague. Fury was behind against Cunningham and had to fight back and get a stoppage. If that happens in the Whyte fight, who decides which fight was 'tougher'?
You're clearly not very confident in Whyte, otherwise you would just have me a straight up bet.Comment

You mean like how Fury faked covid, faked mental illness, faked an ankle injury in the Klitschko rematch, faked donating his purse to charity? You mean like all that?Comment

You think Fury would duck Whyte? He fought Klitschko & Wilder 3 times on the road. I think Fury will batter him like he did to Chisora in their second fight. The thing about Whyte is he will take a lot of chances throwing that big left hook which leaves him open to counters. He iis an exciting HW to watch but very vulnerable. He gets hit clean a lot. He has the power to drop Fury but will he be able to land it? We will soon see…
Fury knows a 80/20 split is ducking a fight . He also knows when fighters want to fight they negotiate reasonably because that’s another thing he explained. He doesn’t want to fight Whyte that’s for sure ,posters have to know when someone is randomly b.sing or lying . He’s obviously flip flopping now to avoid a potential match here .Comment
