When I saw the title, I imagined him taking a check from Arum and then walking a few steps and turning the check over to Sulaiman. Good for Frank tho, everyone needs their moment of glory.

Whyte has gotten what he wanted - more $. So on to the fight. No excuses, no delays

If Whyte didn't get KOd by Povetkin, maybe he'd have a claim to increase the split in his favor due to the long time he had waited for his shot. But getting KOd and then avenging his KO in a fight with post COVID Povetkin didn't help... He should take the fight - otherwise his future becomes very unclear. The only hail mary for him would be a Wilder fight - and that's very unlikely, and won't bring the same money anyway.

Lol at Frank saying Whyte was only worth 20% because he wasn't a draw and then paying a fortune for the fight.

I think they are scared and want to make sure everything goes in Fury's favor. Fury is going to get beat whatever. Guy has fought one top-20 fighter in six years. And his third best win is still Derek Chisora. Whyte has been fighting top-10 fighters almost every fight. Time for Fury's luck to run out.

I remember before AJ fought Whyte - Fury was saying Whyte would beat AJ because he was a "real fighter" (this was after Fury and Whyte had been sparring). Probably why Fury ran from the previous fight he promised Whyte....

If this fight goes ahead. Please don’t disappear the following day. Don’t take a “vacation” for 6 months like most will and do. Good luck in your bet. I think you’ll need it.

This does less than 500k in usa. Makes most it $ to break even via uk sales Fury vs wilder was a who gonna ko who or will wilder land suspense even then did 700k max or so . fury vs whyte doesnt bring intrigue outside the uk. This a fight of long will it take furry to win 12 or ko

If baseball season is delayed, this will do much better in US because of less sports competition and more bandwidth to promote

Whyte is a old war horse his best chance is to knock him out early . I'm surprised wilder didn't go this route . I mean he was swinging for the fences but he took a more subtle approach in the beginning . plus whyte is more versatile and fury won't be just looking for a big right hand all night .
