Calm down buddy, life's not that bad!

You can’t answer it that’s why. Muppet. You’ve embarrassed yourself. Now you’ve been ridiculed and proven wrong you wanna act nonchalant. You go for it buddy. Ya clearly to ****** to comprehend anything.

stop implying Eddie lost a bid on purpose when he’s stated how badly he wanted it and how confident he was of winning. Freak you mush.

I'm not a Eddie Hearn fan at all but I'm impressed because you know that Frank don't got that kind of scratch...he needed help from Top Rank & ESPN to beat Matchroom.

Head to head, Hearn would have SLAUGHTERED Frank at that bid.


Frank/Top Rank would rather lose money than let Hearn promote this fight because they would have to do some serious numbers on PPV (2 million buys minimum) in the UK, and expect stadium ticket prices to be eye watering to recover that fee and then sum!

Why you care? Be happy the fight should be one step closer. World titles aren’t won at purse bids you wet melt. Do you actually follow boxers Yano the guys who fight? Or do you just follow promoters? Lmao.

even when whytes back is against the wall his fans still think he’s in control. Crazy or what.

Honestly, I didn't even read it.

I saw a very angry man I've never spoken to, getting extremely worked up about nothing and I hoped he didn't have kids or a wife, because they would lead terrible lives if you were like this in the real world.

I'm sure you're not, but chill.

It's the internet. Deep breaths.

I’ll bet you an avatar change if Whyte isn’t his toughest fight .

Hahahahahahahaha wtf is that for a bet? Who’s going to judge his toughest fight? You? You do understand that isn’t how bets work you sausage. Lmfao. You guys. I’m done. I aren’t even responding anymore. Your proper weirdos. I don’t want to be seen corresponding with such fecking mongos

That's a big purse. Eyebrow raising even, but Warren/Arum couldn't risk letting Fury fight on another platform.
I'm glad this situation of heavyweight fights that was getting messy is a little clearer now. It's a good fight and a good payday for both fighters.

I wasn't a fan of the idea of Whyte and Joshua stepping a-side and Fury taking a warm up before Usyk, so hopefully there's no more upcoming twists in the tale.

Whyte fans 4 days ago:

Dillian should reject 5M he deserves more.

TODAY:
WHYTE GETS £8M:

Uhhhhh I wonder if arbitration can change this split!



Why not be happy we finally know the fights got a home? It’s happening. Whytes got almost double he was first offered.

Stop being upset that Eddie lost. Stop implying Eddie didn’t want to win the bid and stop implying he went their to lose the bid but bump up warren and arums bid. It’s ridiculous.

Eddie did an interview TWO DAYS AGO stating how CONFIDENT he is to WIN the bid.

be HAPPY we should have a fight. IF Whyte rejects, YOU SHOULD IMPLORE HIM TO Step up.

IF FURY REALLY WANTED AN INTERIM FIGHT BEFORE USYK, then he’s an IDIOT.

BUT HE SURE HAS SEEMED HAPPY TO FIGHT WHYTE.

ONLY PEOPLE STOPPING THE FIGHT NOW IS DILLIAN WHYTE AND EDDIE HEARN.

You miss a key point. He was offered a 5 million guarantee AND 25% of the revenue (PPV, gate, etc).

By going to purse bid, he's nothing more than the opponent with an 8 million purse. The other side is not obligated to give him anything beyond the 20% of the split. That means Fury gets his 30+ million AND 100% of revenue from the event.

On the other hand, the 8 is guaranteed and Whyte doesn't have to worry about PPV bombing, poor ticket sales, etc.

We'll see if it was a dumb move by rejecting the 5 million and 25% or smart.

Way back, Hatton took short money to fight Mayweather - but he received 100% of the UK PPV money revenue as part of the deal. The PPV, at the time, became the biggest seller in UK history. Hatton may have made more money than Mayweather when the smoke finally cleared - which prompted Mayweather to never make that kind of deal again.

Dillian Whyte has forced Arum and Warren to pay up. Fury should be thanking him for making this go to purse bids. I can't see Top Rank breaking even unless it does 1 million plus PPV. Principality Stadium will bring in 17 million max and PPVS 25 million, possibly.
If DW wins the arbitration case its likely he'll be awarded an extra 10% of the bid.

None of that matters. Do we discuss how much the gate was at Ali fights? Is that a measuring stick for greatness? If so Bruno and Hatton are the greatest of all time.

we back fighters here mate not promoters.

please explain why any of what you said matters?

do you Whyte fans want him to even win? Or is it more hate for fury driving you on? His promoters breaking even or not equals a win for Whyte?

whyte is going to be schooled and embarrassed after this, he will have nowhere else to go. Best he takes the payday and saves it after this fight.

2022. End of Whyte, Joshua and Hearn. Make the most of it won’t you buddy. Only 11 months left of ya king on the grand stage, you may see him carrying a spit bucket for Canelo, Eddie I mean, I know you pray to him 5 times a day.

[Stuart Chandler]

Only you Whyte fans crying. All Hurt that Eddie lost a purse bid.

im ecstatic and enjoying rubbing it in ya little rat Faces.

all mad butt hurt over warren winning a bid.

I’m buzzing the fights on. If Re-tards want to post dumb shi I’ll pull em up on it. Like “can’t wait for fury to pull out”. Whyte the only guy that’s tried pulling out. This fight should of been signed WEEKS ago.

now run along little girl.

Fury tried fighting Ngannou from the UFC but arbitration stopped him . Remember Arbitration isn’t over yet Fury might still get out of it .

[RoadMan94]

I think you have made the correct prediction, he will be badly hungover and around I'd say 27 stone.... For Americans thats around a ton in weight

27 stone in America is a small mans over there. You guys some fat, greasy, lazy obese moFuhkas over their. You want to learn what a normal meal size is.
