    As for MSG? They won't do that. If in NY, they would go with the Barclays. But this fight has Vegas written all over it. It clearly makes more money in Vegas than anywhere else.
    I agree with the sooner the better for Fury.

    The fight will likely happen in June tho, so Davison and Roach have to make sure he doesn't over-train, get stale.

    And one more thing that a lot of posters are kinda getting wrong.

    The weight loss had nothing to do with the Wilder fight.

    Fury was pretty much down to the target weight by August and had 3 more months to get ready for Deontay, 3 more months where he got more toned and sharper.

    Folks expecting a much better Fury in the rematch are going to be a little disappointed- that is about the best version you are going to see from here on out (and that is more than enough for most heavyweights anyway).

    If they are smart, they won't let Tyson cut any more weight either.

    Rather, he should put a few more pounds on as long as it can be done without sacrificing mobility and with adding some strength.

    A 245 lb Fury might not have gotten up from those punches in the 12th...

              I thought it was insane to host the fight Los Angeles in the first place. Los Angeles has never been a fight town. This fight should convene in either Las Vegas or Brooklyn. There is a lot more money to be made in Las Vegas. However, it's really up to Wilder though since he is the A side and he loves the Barclay's Center.

                Yes, their first fight was very entertaining and exciting. It's worth whatever the cost.

                    AJ and Eddie will be crying if this fight gets made.

                    AJs belts looking more and more worthless every day.

                      I agree. 260 lbs is Tyson's Fury's ceiling. At 30 years old I don't believe he can cut down to 250 lbs anymore and be the same Fury. He'll likely be weaker and more dehydrated than usual.
