I think it happens next year.
Do you still believe there will be a Wilder Fury fight?

It's not rumored. Frank Warren has said it's done. Espinoza has said it's done. Wilder has said it's done. Fury has said it's done. Tim Smith has said it's done. It's nor a rumor. The only rumor is Eddie Hearn saying they won't fightRumored, "we all know", speculations. Man, at this point, Wilder and Fury could tell you that the world was flat and you would believe them "because they said so" hahahah. And the Crawford fight has nothing to do with this one because no one in the Crawford fight has a history of pulling out of fights or steroids. First the fight happens in November. Then December. First in Vegas, now New York, next it will have to happen in the UK because Fury has no Visa. Are you Wilder fans SURE that it was Hearn and AJ who were the unprofessional ones in the negotiations?Comment

It's getting announced Joshua-Povetkin fight week just to rub it in Hearn's face a little more. I hope so at least.Comment

I think Wilder-Fury happens this year but that's a poor comparison. One is a regular title defense on ESPN, the other is a lineal title fight slated for PPV. Wilder-Fury needs to be promoted. They need to officially announced a date and venue this month.Comment

Did you see my Joshua/Povetkin comparison?Comment

That's not a US PPV fight. It's a UK PPV fight but Joshua sells without the promotion over there, just like Mayweather did in the US (example, Mayweather-Maidana II fight wasn't official until less than 2 months before the fight).
Wilder-Fury would struggle for buys even if they had world class promotion, they can't afford to put this thing together at the last second.Comment

There is over 11 weeks before the earliest fight date. And 13 weeks before the latest fight date. There is more than enough time. Are you one of the conspiracy theorist who believe Eddie Hearn over everyone else that is actually involved in the fight?That's not a US PPV fight. It's a UK PPV fight but Joshua sells without the promotion over there, just like Mayweather did in the US (example, Mayweather-Maidana II fight wasn't official until less than 2 months before the fight).
