Comments Thread For: Arum Makes Fury-White PPV Predictions: 300K in the US, 1 Million in the UK

[Sid-Knee]

I am not talking about crowd attendance, I was specifically talking about Pay Per View buys etc

I just think Tyson Fury's home coming fight is going to be bigger than all of Anthony Joshua's recent fights.

In fact it may be bigger than all of his fights accept Ruiz II & Wladimir Kiltschko.

It is a disappointment that Whyte did not attend the press conference, as I would imagine the interest would of been sparked even higher right now.

Low move by Whyte.

We'll see on those PPV numbers when they come out.

Whyte isn't turning up because they f3cked him over with the 20%. All this after Fury slandered AJ for years and called him greedy with the money and told him to give everyone 50% regardless of them not coming close to generating the money AJ did. He's a hypocrite and contradicting himself. But then again, when is the scum bag not? He also has the barefaced cheek to claim he's an honest man. Haha. There is nothing remotely honest about that man.

F3ck Fury.

Whyte isn’t getting any upside so he’s refusing to promote the fight. That’s petty but it’s fair enough.

What happens to the sport if the loser of every purse bid refuses to cooperate?

It is a low move from Whyte, something you would only see in today's era.

Whyte is being paid is biggest ever pay day, and if he wins 'Then he is in control'.

It is a short sighted, and low move by Dillian Whyte. I don't think anyone, should be supporting such a move.

I was neutral on the fight, but now I may have to back Tyson Fury 1000%.

That is how disappointed I am in Whyte. No regard for his fans, or the people who want to see the fighters engage during the build up.

Plus, he has missed a opportunity to apply pressure to Tyson Fury.

You have just ignored what he said. It's not about losing purse bids it is about Arum and Warren running to Sullimain and asking for the standard mando split to be lowered on this occasion. They went there to screw Whyte out of money so Whyte is retaliating because they didn't need to do it.

Did you not see his fight in the Garden with Ruiz? When did Fury or any American do that against an unknown fighter?

Fury barely got a couple of thousand to watch him against unknown fighters. Americans don't even do that with known fighters either.

Fury-Wilder dwarfed AJ vs Ruiz on essentially every metric.

BIGGEST GATE IN HEAVYWEIGHT HISTORY.

The second fight also did 850 thousand buys in the US. Meanwhile AJ’s US fight didn’t even make DAZN’s top 10 most streamed events of 2019. It’s absolutely night and day.

You’re another pathetic Matchroom shill. Don’t try and talk all high and mighty too, you can’t even spell Barclays (not Barkley’s) you thick c***.

It’s more about the upside than the purse bid. This show doesn’t need Whyte anyway, f*** him. It’s very petty on his part but he’s within his right to do it. Let’s just hope he turns up for his beating on April 23rd.

It is the biggest purse on UK soil.

Whyte isn’t getting any upside so he’s refusing to promote the fight. That’s petty but it’s fair enough.

Really? Can you list me the top 5 purses on UK soil?

AJ has made this time of money 5 times over

[DaNeutral.]

Bob thinks a fight between 2 Brits at a UK venue on a non prime time slot in the states is going to do more PPV sales than the American PPV stars like Spence, Crawford, David, Thurman do while fighting at American prime time?

Biggest gate in heavyweight history. In Nevada. You didn't say Nevada.

Barkley's holds 19 thousand. That would be just over half if it had 10 thousand there. As i say, poor numbers.

It holds 19K for basketball. Everyone with a brain knows these arenas aren't sold full capacity when it comes to boxing.

AJ was also doing like 400K views on Showtime when he was there. Neither he, nor Fury are draws anywhere other than the UK.
