I agree, I think it would have sold really well over here! I look at it as Fury saying 'Look, I am stepping up and going to fight in the US' which is fair enough, he is giving the fans a fight that Wilder or Joshua couldn't agree on but that is also down to the fact that Fury only has the lineage and his '0' to fall back on.Yeah i think this fight would have been better off happening in the UK, it makes more sense in that regards. Wilder would be loved if he performed well and stops Fury. He would gain new fans over here too.
They would sell a good numbers of tickets at the O2 or wembley. The only issue would be the time which the fight would happen, most american fans would have to wake up in the middle of the night to watch it.
I remember driving back from Wales on the day of the Joshua v Parker fight and the traffic was backed up for miles and miles (if anyone knows that part of the world) all the way to the Severn bridge...which is relatively, a really long way!
Boxing is doing really well in the UK at the moment and a lot of that is down to the success of Joshua (obviously other factors too) so maybe Wilder & Fury missed a trick here...I guess we'll see! a Fury win might mean a re-match in Manchester? Or Cardiff?Comment

If Fury wins then they should do a rematch the UK, Wilder would be shocked with the amount of fans he would generate. IMHO they definitely missed a beat, especially with the negotiation of the Joshua fight that went pear shape, it would have proved that Wilder was indeed willing to fight in the UK. Which would put more pressure on Joshua, right now the pressure has been taken off Joshua with Wilder antics/comments, people here now dont think he genuinely wanted to fight anyone in the UK.I agree, I think it would have sold really well over here!

Why do UK fans think that? Wilder has already fought in the UKIf Fury wins then they should do a rematch the UK, Wilder would be shocked with the amount of fans he would generate.

Wilder beating Harrison is like Povetkin beating David price. Can’t read too much into it. Both Harrison and Price are known to casual fans but the purpose of those fights are different to if they fought those fights as headliners. Wilder/Fury would be a headliner in the back of the failed AJ/Wilder negotiations, Wilder would be able to call Joshua a fraud in his own country, more questions would be asked off AJ especially if Wilder destroys Fury like I predicted he would. His leverage would go up, he would have a PPV on his name, he gains legions of British fans in doing so.
Only issue would be the affiliation with BT sports, since AJ is with sky sports.Comment

A random idiot "confirming" something is meaningless if the easily verifiable facts show that they're wrong.
How old are you? Why do you refuse to admit your age? Why are you so embarrassed about being a teenager?Comment

Good. Then bet me. Why are you so scared? Either there are people in the upper deck on Dec 1 or there aren't. Why do you love to hide behind a computer and refuse to find out the truth? There's no need to argue about this. We'll know who is right on Dec 1. Let's bet.Comment
