Comments Thread For: Wilder Not Concerned About Fury Pulling Out Of Their Fight

[SeGoodland]

the WBC was founded by the BBBoC and has historically been incredibly pro british fighters. they stripped bowe for not fighting lennox lewis. they stripped mike tyson for not fighting lennox lewis.

the situation with dillian whyte is very simple. you become the mandatory by winning a final eliminator and whyte refuses to fight a final eliminator. there's nothing anti-UK about that.

Cool, I genuinely didn't know that. Good knowledge.

It was more the way that the article read rather than the background and my point was that if you didn't know about the WBC being so prestigious and you read this article, you could be convinced that the WBC wasn't held in such high regard. Does that make sense?

I would actually like to see Wilder v Breazeale before Wilder v Fury. I feel that another US good level/rated fighter would be good for Wilders career, then take the Fury fight next year...or Whyte or AJ, whatever.

Too many folks are looking for reasons for this fight not to happen, mostly AJ fans who consciously or subconsciously see a Fury-Wilder match for what it is- a fight that makes their guy less relevant.

See, not only will the fight produce a champion with more of a claim to "baddest man on the planet" than AJ, there is a distinct possibility THAT BOTH MEN come out of this fight looking better than AJ.

If it is an exciting, well fought, back and forth match it definitely does that.
Even if it is a one-sided quick stoppage by Wilder of Fury, Tyson is the guy that had the balls to step up. It could even be a boxing match Fury wins, but enhances what folks think about Wilder's skill level.

The point is there are so many win-win scenarios for both fighters that, coupled with the huge payday, it makes absolute no sense NOT TO FIGHT, even if one or both are less than ready.

This fight will happen.

that belt holds a higher value than all belts GayJ has.. combined. even Brits will admit this. ask your greatest boxer ever Lennox Lewis he'll tell you.

WBC belt doesn’t mean sheet at heavy

Lewis is in the same boat as wilder and fury . They are Jealous of another mans success its getting pretty obvious now

Yeah, in his earlier fights, I had to look up who he was fighting but I have been a fan since his Amateur days so maybe a bit of slack?

I mean, who actually knows who Emanuele Leo is!!?!?!?!?

The only info you can find about Wilders competition is on their FB profiles.

Seriously if Fury vs Wilder and Garcia vs Spence doesnt happen next then all of these fighters (except Spence) are dead to me.

I'm not concerned either. Also it looks like the venue is the only thing preventing this from being signed. IMO it should be Vegas, but I imagine that the Barclays Center is putting up good money.

You should have ended it there.... I’m not concerned .... good so was everyone else. Hence they went onto to the next post.😂😂 but no you proceeded to continue .lol “IMO”.... wait who wants to hear your opinion again?..... I told you red means to stop. Green means to Go. How do you even get in the red?? It’s all those opinions that nobody wants to hear😂😂 You take yourself too seriously. Ifyou just relax and don’t look at these forums as though you are sitting an exam ,posters will eventually see your masculine side. Bomb squaaaaad..... and I’m out ( sorry always wanted to say that)

Eddie Hearn spent many months lying and claiming Whyte was mandatory. So fans thought Whyte got screwed. The truth is that Whyte refused to fight a final eliminator. Clearly Hearn thought Parker was a safer fight than Ortiz.

And surely Hearn thinks Charr is a safer fight than Wilder.

Then tell us out of the four recognized titles, which has the most impressive title history at heavyweight.

This dummy Wilder will be lucky if fat Fury pass PED tests pre fight.
