    Great take there genius.
    Commercially tanked based on what figures exactly?

    You fools just make sh** up.

    Like him or not Fury is one the biggest draws in boxing. No debate.

    Same goes with AJ, Wilder, Canelo, GGG etc. Whether you like these guys or not, you don’t earn what they earn without being able to draw money. It’s common sense.

      As I said hypothetical, let’s just stick to the facts.
      And the fact is that typically in these situations, the A-side cuts a side deal w/ his promoter so his promoter can go over bid on his behalf.

      The $9 million discrepancy would indicate things were business as usual w/ this bid and Fury made a side deal with his promoters.

        “Would indicate” hypothetical…

        As I said let’s just keep to the facts, no bidders were complied to make side deals with fighters. There’s no evidence of any side deals besides from mere speculation.

            One of the biggest draws without question. Canelo, Fury, AJ, Wilder and GGG are clearly the top 5. In no particular order.

              Wilder ? Both aren’t draws not even fighting each other three times it got old fast . Joshua doesn’t need Fury or Wilder ,Fury needs Whyte to do a big PPV you know that so he’s only worth 20% ? He’s a bigger draw in the U.K than Wilder in the US yet he gave Wilder 50/50 but was petrified of Whyte so much he stalled and hoped Whyte wouldn’t take the 20% .

                The TV networks put up the money. Same a dazn was putting up the majority of herns bid..

                      Yeah these were just rip roaring successes, this is a complete gamble at that price that the UK grudge match angle sells, even Hearns bid was possibly pushing it.

                      There is nothing in Furys history that suggest sticking his name on any fight generates that sort of cash.

                      It’s clear from the 41m they bid that they certainly value Whyte at more than 20%.
