Wilder about to cash out, no way he beats a sharper, fitter Fury in a rematch.

Wilder wants it in March/April because he knows that Fury won't be at his best then. Showtime´s Espinoza says that May/June is more realistic. I think Fury will be better by then and maybe reach 80 - 85% of what he is capable of. But thats enough to beat Wilder without getting dropped.

I hope he means it. Would love to see that fight again. Only fair for it to be in the UK for the next go around

Wilder only wants it as soon as possible because he knows that Fury won't improve until March/April. Give Fury 2 more months until June then Fury will be at 80% and thats enough to convincingly beat Wilder.

The first fight should have been Vegas. So if it did 150k buys then the rematch 300k? See what I mean? I wouldn't rule out the UK so fast. There is always a chance plus UK would do more buys with fight being on at a more reasonable hour too.

It will be Vegas or London.If Wilder wants a 50/50 split against Joshua then he has to come to England and beat Fury there.Thats the only way he has a chance to get 50%.

Oh Jesus, why won’t Fury be at his best in april? He just gave one of his best boxing performances of his career and he’s shown that he does better with less time between fights. So how is wilder giving him an immediate rematch a ****ing cherry pick?

the longer the wait,the more it favours fury

Exactly and thats why Wilder wants it as soon as possible. Espinoza says its possible only in May/June but Wilder wants it in March/April. These extra 2 months will favour Fury who will be at 80% on fight night. Thats enough to beat Wilder again without getting dropped.

Fury´s trainer, brothers and dad said even before the fight that Fury was only at 70%. Go watch the Klitschko fight and there you will see a faster & sharper Fury. That Fury would have stopped Wilder.

Brits might want AJ vs Fury! But I was there LA is my home town. All of the celebrities were there. There is big time money for Wilder vs Fury II, this time in Vegas or New York.

I also see a scenario where its AJ vs Wilder in GB. Fury gets at least $5 million to step aside and a mandatory shot at the winner. And to make it sweeter Fury can fight a tune up on the under card (as a co-main feature event).

Wilder needs to give Fury the wbc be lt, not a rematch.
Nobody thinks wilder won and the only argument he won was a long count? Once fury got up there was no chance he would be stopped. Just wrap his arms around wilder so makes no difference, if he was was given 9 ,10, or 15 seconds.
Majority are outraged at draw decision. Just give him the belt

Chances of that are slim to none and slim just left town..........
After this fight did good numbers and the rematch is going to at least double the PPV buys? Yeah, this has Vegas written all over it.

You must not be aware of the numbers a Fury fight of this level would bring to a stadium in England. Try to keep up. It's a very real scenario a UK rematch of these two.
