Warren: Fury will not defend the WBC title next
Collapse
-
The £300,000 amount was revealed in interviews by Frank Warren, when explaining why the WBC ruled the way they did. Bob Arum claimed in an interview that the WBC added up the purses of the last three Fury fights and last three Whyte fights and that the split should be 90/10, but the WBC doesn't go any lower than 80/20.
Yes, I do have connections with the sanctioning bodies. I've been friends with Mauricio Sulaiman for years. But the reasoning for the 80/20 split is public knowledge, not any sort of private info.

How is the Interim title irrelevant when it states an Interim champion can receive 45 % , stop lying, how many PPV does Fury have in the U.K as well because that’s where that fight would take place ?
It's not semantics. Fury makes WAYYYYYY more per fight than Whyte does. It's not even close. And no, the WBC rules don't demand a "much higher percentage." WBC rules say Whyte is entitled to 30%, but Fury is allowed to petition for the split to be changed if he can prove he makes WAYYYYYY more than Whyte, which he does. Reducing Whyte's cut to 20% is appropriate under the circumstances.
The interim title is irrelevant when determining the split. A big name in the UK is irrelevant compared to a huge worldwide name. If a normal no name champion is entitled to 70%, it's completely reasonable for Fury to be entitled to 80% after he just made $50 million in his last two fights combined.
They aren’t going to use fights that were on lockdown either to suggest Whyte isn’t a draw over in the U.K something you also are unaware of which is not news around here .

Where did Whyte decline the Fury fight and where did the WBC confirm Whyte turned it down ? If he’s filing a petition that means he’s not the one turning down the fight ,so once again I think you are caught in a lie here .
You are confused about the timeline. Fury vs Schwarz was announced months before the WBC ordered Fury vs Whyte and Whyte vs Rivas was announced weeks before the order. The Fury vs Whyte order was for them to fight after their already announced fights against Schwarz and Rivas.
Fury's public response to the order was that he would accept if the diamond title was at stake instead of the interim title, unaware of the fact that the WBC was planning to eliminate the diamond title and replace it with the franchise title. Fury ultimately accepted the fight for the interim title.
On the other hand, the WBC publicly confirmed that Whyte refused to fight Fury and filed a petition to be named mandatory without having to fight a final eliminator. Those are the facts. So stop lying and saying Fury turned down the Whyte fight when the WBC says you are wrong and that Whyte is the one that turned down the fight.
In fact this link shows your lying .

Anyone that actually listens to this guy needs their head examined more then he does at least he’s getting paid to lie and he’s allowed to which is even crazier.

No. It's not. It hasn't been a WBC rule since 2009. You have no idea what you're talking about. It's only in the WBA rules.
Please show us where the current WBC rules say interim champions are entitled to 45%:

You absolutely are worried about it. That's what you keep talking about.
Boxing fans should just want the best fights, not whether a boxer gets 10% or 20%, it literally has zero baring on you.Comment
