Am I the only one that sees this as a big stunt organised by Frank Warren to draw attention to Fury's next fight vs that Italian guy? Hey, Wilder's side might be in on it too.
Frank and Wilder's team both agree to lend each other a hand - Fury gets publicity for his next fight and Wilder keeps his name in the media / has a more powerful bargaining chip in negotiating with AJ - basically saying to Hearn /AJ 'If you won't fight me, I have other options'.
I think it's clear Eddie Hearn knows it's all a bluff - there is no fuccing way Fury gets in the ring with Wilder this year...NONE!
The promoters get the fans talking and the buzz going - and laugh at the free publicity they are getting. Wilder helps Fury sell PPVs for his next glorified sparring session and Wilder gets what he wants.
Happy to eat my words - but I will say the Fury/Wilder fight 100% is not happening this year
