The truth about Fury being a star

[MeanestNiceGuy]

He’s a “star” in the UK, and it ends there.

He’s not popular here in the states.

My thoughts on why I don’t find him interesting, maybe others can relate.

He looks like Humpty Dumpty with that big fat belly waste of his. Has a massive waste size. Just doesn’t look athletic at all, his aesthetic is the next level above Andy Ruiz, barely.

Second, I can’t understand a damn word he says with that fast talking gypsy accent.

Third, he just doesn’t have a likable personality, strikes me as obnoxious. He thinks he’s some charismatic star, and you almost believe it, until you realize he can’t draw flies without Wilder here in the states.

Fourth, he’s a dancer and jabber in the ring. Not really bringing out any fond memories we have of the 90’s heavyweight scene where we had ruthless punchers taking each other’s heads off.

It also doesn’t help that Canelo is in his prime, stealing the boxing spotlight from everyone, putting even the heavyweights in a shadow. He might have a bit more star power if there was a void, without Canelo.

I will say I enjoyed his demolition of Wilder, as Wilder is a delusional skill-less boxer, with annoying fans, but it ends there.

Couldn’t disagree more…and I typically agree with your points!

The guy is a born star….I mean, he has one of the most popular boxer’s name (Mike Tyson), he won most fans over due to his mental health struggles, yes….he’s obnoxious but, isn’t that the American way?

He’s obnoxious but warming in the same breath. I wouldn’t doubt if this man is the karaoke king at this point. When guys carry on like him, they usually find their way into the homes, hearts and heads of fans….good, bad or indifferent

One thing I can say is, he completely stripped Wilder of whatever he’s earned in the sport and it’s not hard to tell. I’m fact, Beyoncé Wildher became more of a prick over the course of their 3 battles. Lol. Wilder was able to draw a crowd…that much I will agree with. He just didn’t behave like a champ when things didn’t go his way.

Fury’s alright with me. Yeah, maybe he doesn’t sell as much as he’s leading us to believe but the dude has a place here in the States for sure! I’ll look further into your points without the intent of disproving them simply because I didn’t agree at first glance.

That was his real guarantee for his last fight, but the WBC split is based off filed purses. So $6 million Fury vs $400 thousand Whyte.

So,did he make 30 miles or not ?

[WBC WBA IBF]

So,did he make 30 miles or not ?

Yes. His guarantee for the 2nd Wilder fight was $28,000,000 and his guarantee for the 3rd Wilder fight was $30,000,000.

I’m shocked you even remember my posts lol. I have such a basic, computer generated name. Feel like an anonymous fly on the wall in this place.

You make some valid points, but I still feel he falls short of being a draw.

The man can box, and can be a vital piece of entertainment, but must have a big name dance partner.

Exactly right ,it’s an inconvenience truth what you posted .

Yes. His guarantee for the 2nd Wilder fight was $28,000,000 and his guarantee for the 3rd Wilder fight was $30,000,000.

So how does a guaranteed of 5.5 million make sense outside someone’s contract ? That’s like saying a champion is guaranteed a huge amount so they can always do 80/20 splits . I bet Whyte gets 25 at the end of the day because I don’t believe they can use guaranteed purses against another fighter . It’s all lowballing tactics .

If Fury has earned 15x more than Whyte in recent fights, it is appropriate to modify the split from 70/30 to 80/20.

I’m honestly surprised with his big personality that he’s not a PPV star, but that’s how I see it.

He’s missing something, that’s not allowing him to be a global star.

He doesn’t have to be American, just has to have that little something about him.

He’s a “star” in the UK, and it ends there.

He’s not popular here in the states.

- - What UK grade level U in?

Flubber fled the Wlad Rematch and ultimately the UK after AJ made epic sell out stadium fights the new standard.

Deyonce was more low laying fruit level that he's at where he could guarantee a decent harvest of peanuts as compared to the pound notes AJ was printing at his own mint.

Fury’s a fraud and managed to fight Usyk while ducking Whyte twice .
