I don't know why people enjoy this fake beef stuff anyway. Its just a cheap promoter tool designed to sell tickets and PPV's to gullible people. If you want that kind of **** go watch WWE.Comment

It won't. The actual fight is what will move the needle. And if Wilder can knock Fury out then that would be the best promotion of his career.Comment

He turned up the weigh in and shouted "bomb squad" after Fury got off the scales.
Fury's dad came over and they shook hands, then started pretending to try and fight each other. It was all completely fake, but it will make the news, no doubt.
If you didn't know better, and just watched the video, you would think that Wilder was going to be fighting Big John Fury next, not his son!Last edited by kafkod; 08-17-2018, 09:49 AM.Comment

I dunno if he thinks the UK news is gonna interrupt coverage of political events to show 2 guys shouting at a weigh in. Only people who saw this are the ones who follow boxing enough to go to weigh ins or read online boxing sites, and they already know who Wilder is.
Gotta admit I'm enjoying the buildup already though, Wilder just showing up, doing his thing, mixing with the fans. It doesn't move the needle yet though you're right but they probably will tomorrow when it's a post-fight face to face on live TV where both will have a mic. As long as Fury doesn't dress as Batman again I can see the promotion doing well.
How much casual/mainstream exposure do you think they will get in the US? Could Wilder and or Fury be invited on one of the late night chat shows? I feel like that'd be a good fit for them personality-wise.Comment
