Wilder vs. Fury sells $1 mil worth of tickets in first 25 minutes

They've really done their part. They have the rocking pressers and have interviews on national radio shows and ESPN.

This fight can't miss. As long as casuals think it's the two baddest, biggest men in the world going at it, they will buy it. And these are some very big boys.

This hype is great. Sure hope the fight is half as good as the hype. Maybe boxing will get some new fans afterwards.

Brits buy a lot of tickets for big fights in America. Like they did for Hatton/Mayweather. Calzaghe/Hopkins. Wilder showed what draw he is against Ortiz. The only thing that's changed is Fury being the opponent, so he should be credited.

Nobody gives a damn.

As long as both men don't duck Joshua after it, we just want to see an undisputed, unified heavyweight champion. The winner of this fight must fight Joshua so we can find out.

There will be more Fury fans in attendance than Wilder fans so sit your ass down.

If you haven't noticed, we Wilder fanboys have been wanting that fight for several months now for your boy AJ to fight Wilder but all he does is lie and make up excuses about the $50 Mil and hide behind his promoter in order to stall and delay the fight because unlike Tyson Fury, he lacks the courage and balls to fight Deontay Wilder.

Also, hold up home. The last I've noticed Fury is from the U.K. He is not from the U.S. He's hardly even known in the states. So he is not the one who is selling these tickets; Deontay Wilder is.

Besides, if Fury is indeed the one who is driving up these ticket sales then it's good thing for us all because the American public are paying their money to watch Deontay Wilder knock this potty, foul mouth punk clean the fuck out.

[Robbie Barrett]

Obviously not Wilder fans buying the tickets. His biggest fans are on here debating whether to buy a ticket.

[champion4ever]

. The fact you think it does shows how deluded you are.

Those tickets are being sold by Fury, not Wilder. We've seen Wilder's pulling power for 40 fights and they all flopped. But Fury is out their promoting the hell out of it and doing his bit. So lets not pretend it's Wilder selling, because it most certainly isn't.

You're insane. I didn't know I was living in the U.K. I always thought Los Angeles was in the U.S. Besides $1 mil worth of tickets sold in less than 25 minutes is one remarkable feat.

Also you said that [I]"1 million dollars worth of tickets doesn't even begin to show it would be a PPV success. They are not connected".[/I] This just goes to show how unhinged and insane you are. At this pace that it is currently selling; It could potentially not only break many box office records but also potentially Pay per view records as well.

As far as Fury is concerned; Who knows him? He is hardly even known in the states. He fought here only once in his career against a light heavyweight by the name of Steve Cunningham who knocked him on his ass. In a sense you are right. He may be driving up the ticket sales but not by any of his fans but by fans who want to see Deontay Wilder knock him flat on his ass for good this time.

Does that cover both wages?

Eddie hearn and the rest of team aj must be legit shttng in their pants, thats why they are rushing RIGHT NOW into prayingggg wilder signs this new offer. WHEN wilder kos fury, not only will he prove that he is also
a huge star and money producer, but he will also be the LINEAL CHAMPION and will still hold the coveted green belt.

In my opinion and i feel this will be us americans major opinion too, Not only should wilder be due 50% of everything with aj, he might become the A side and want more than half the pot.

LIKE I SAID, you bet yo ass hearn is no doubt panicking right now!!

LETS GOOO WILDER! shut EVERYONE the fuhhhk up!

Spot on! Those Mofos thought that they were the end of boxing
