Do you still believe there will be a Wilder Fury fight?

[Boksfan]

Less and less people believe in this fight with every day passing.

[Boksfan]

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 fight

So bunch of proven liars said it's done? OK you will believe anything your master tells you

[Pigeons]

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?

I clearly said I think the fight happens. I also think the fight needed to be announced already to maximize promotion.

Again, you can have everyone involved say that "it is done", but if there's no date, venue, contract, promotion, etc., then there is no fight hahaha. And you can hate Hearn all you want, but his fights don't go south like this. And if this fight does go ahead, it won't be a sellout and the PPV will be dreadful because Wilder has never been on PPV and Fury is not from the states. And Fury can workout all day every day screaming "Wilder" but if he has no boxing license and no Visa, he's probably not coming to the US to fight hahaha. This whole thing will crumble within two weeks, I'm telling you

They are waiting on the GGG/Canelo fight or the fight week of AJ/Povetkin to announce.
Either one will get maximum exposure and if its during AJs week it will piss him and Hearn of no doubt.

[BLASTER1]

These promoters know when the time is right thats why they are waiting a little bit but I bet my balls both guys are busy training their nuts off.

My question is, if this is supposed to be such a huge fight, then why would they need to piggyback off someone else's fight to get attention? AJ's fight's don't work like that. Neither does Golovkin's or any other big name fighters. So it doesn't make sense for them to try to promote the fight this way. Warren has plenty to say if you ask him about Eddie Hearn and his fights but he has almost nothing to say about the Wilder/Fury fight other than "it will be announced next week" for the 4th time now. That's amateur at best. And the whole "piss Hearn off" thing is kind of ****** too don't you think? Shouldn't they be a little more worried about Fury and his Visa problems? Or Fury getting a boxing license in the States? Or the venue, fight date and networks?

[that g]

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

sounding like this is the case. and if it is, its kind of silly of them, and another indication of poor promotion in my opinion. somehow they think announcing then will steal some shine off AJ-Povetkin, but it only gives that fight more publicity and interest, because now people will try to watch to see if AJ loses. at the very least, they will be trying to watch to see if they can compare AJ to wilder and fury, or to see what the AJ buzz is all about.

It almost seems like "sticking it to Hearn" is the only reason this fight is taking place.

[IronDanHamza]

Remember when the Klitschko vs Fury 2 fight was supposed to happen and there kept being delays? Everyone was holding their breath just like now and it ended up being a fraud. Fury doesnt even have a boxing license in the US. This is the 4th week of the fight "being announced this week."

Totally normal for Fury to not have his US License.

They get them on fight week usually if they are fighting abroad.
