But I doubt it is Alvarez as well since Kovalev can exercise the rematch clause and Alvarez can't make a decision until the deadline passes for that. I believe he had 60 days after the fight to do so. May have been 90 days I don't remember.
A good UC fight would be LSC vs GRJ.

Of course you got the gate which would once again prolly make it close to 20 or prolly even more as a HW fight like this will really attraxt live crowd

But 100% i hope it does well, for the good of the sport and it will make the winner v Joshua MASSIVE. Unless Wilder-Fury turns into a Klitschko match.
Its 2 undefeated HW's with a lot of time to promote in a title fight .
How well it does is another question ?
One of 4 things will happen if Wilder wins . ( IF )
1. Possible rematch to ensure he gets another payday .
2 . The fight will be bad therefore no rematch .
3 . Wilder will price himself out ( shocking ) and proclaim hes the savior of boxing .
4 . Hearn will find it easier to negotiate if the fight does well bc Wilder will then contribute to the actual fight vs Joshua and we'll see the fight .Last edited by juggernaut666; 08-21-2018, 10:45 AM.

Mayweather and McGregor did the self promoting , most ppl wont even know who Fury and Wilder are they'll just see 2 tall guys arguing back and forth and wont know who they are unless they start following boxing ..
No, this isn’t as big, but more people in the USA will pay PPV money to see Wilder-Fury than will sign up to see AJ-Povetkin for FREE on DaysInn.
Speaking of promotion, where’s Eddie? One of his huge things was getting AJ on DaysInn USA and it’s less than a month away and it’s completely overshadowed by Fury-Wilder and they haven’t even named the date publicly yet.
I’m quite sure AJ will do fine in the UK market with this fight but it’s done vanished like a fart in the wind in America. Literally no one knows it’s happening. And he’s banking on that fight to help get people to at least take a free trial of DaysInn USA.
I guess Adamek is going to be his cash cow, lol.

The live gate for Hopkins vs Calzaghe was $11,636,400 which is insane in hindsight. I believe Warren was involved in that fight as well. I wonder if they have similar pricing for this fight? I mean it's not like Calzaghe had a Hatton type of following or anything.
And I mentioned it earlier in the thread, but I'm pricing the PPV at $70 bucks not $60 bucks. Why put it at $60? You aren't going to not buy the PPV just because it is priced at 10 bucks less.

I am hearing from a good source that Showtime's Wilder-Fury PPV event in Vegas will be on November 17th.
