The cut was the worse I’ve seen and would’ve been stopped on any other promotion. [/QUOT


absolute nonsense. What about Jack vs Browne, cotto vs margarito, gatti vs ward, malignagi vs cano, Khan vs barerra, and that's just off the top of my head. There's been plenty of fights thru history that were covered in blood and weren't stopped.

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.

Fury isn't going to get $30m + 100% of the revenue. Would be nice if that how purses worked, but they don't.

People think Fury is losing to Whyte? Lol

Well Whyte DID take a prime Dave Allen the distance so no reason he shouldn't KO Fury, right?

Before the fight Wallin was a bum not even Fury fans liked the fight but I’m the hater because I said it would be a dangerous fight that night ? Only Fury fans now big up Wallin because he did struggle so they had to make out like Wallin was dangerous but I’m I was the troll ?

If I wanted to act like a weird paid guy from any network I’d act like you as well which is over emotional and gets irate with the slightest fact thrown at him .

You never come out with facts. Half of this thread are laughing and Talking about you. You’ve ignored facts all week. I’ve pulled you up 4 times and you scampered away. You’ve never ever come out with fact. It’s all bias opinion based drivel. You’ve admitted you think fury will win the fight. And you hate that so it’s easier if you convince ya self that whytes won the purse bid even though he hasn’t.

eddie never said he won’t win the bid. And he didn’t lose on purpose as he ain’t got a clue what others are bidding. It’s impossible. You ignore facts sister, you run from them.

You haven’t rebutted one fact on here addressed to you ,you didn’t even answer the other poster saying will you hold Fury accountable if he ducks Whyte as he would the other way around ,so we’ll take that as a no you can’t be non biased ?

“Hearn admits they will have a hard time winning the bid for Fury vs Whyte as Matchroom are currently on a 20 per cent split for the bout “

Fury's guarantee is going to be around that amount. He will get 100% of the revenue allocated for the fighters, obviously TR and Warren will get their fair tastes of everything.

No…no it won’t. Probably easier than Fury vs Chisora.

and fury fought chisora left handed the whole fight

I've always been a fan of Fury and while the fight really wasn't close on the scorecards, I'd have to agree it was that bad and that fight gets stopped on pretty much any other night.
