    Wilder picked the judges the first time? Oh yeah, is that what happened???

      Did the judges cause Fury to get knocked down in the 12th? He wins two cards if he doesn't and the fight if he stays upright that round.

          Can't wait! I'm going to this fight. Hopefully Robbie Barrett goes to the fight so he can pay me my $500 in person

                That’s $26.33 US so US PPV costs 3.01 times as much as UK PPV. So UK PPV has to sell 978250 buys to generate the same money as 325000 US PPV. Yes the PPV money is in the US not the UK.
                If you think Joshua v Wlad did 1.5m, then that’s not beyond the realms of possibility, if the fight was in the U.K. then it’d certainly do around 900k I think (although obviously you’d lose some US buys so...)

                The ring walk time does affect the U.K. buys.

                Think the fight does much better on PPV second time round in both the US and U.K. Fury getting up in the 12th is one of the enduring images of sport in recent years.

                    I still can't believe no number has even been released from the UK side. Like damn, can one of the boxing journalist please do an ounce of research????

                    Yeah, numbers should improve for sure. Heck, I'm pretty bold in expecting it to do almost do 2.5-3x more than the first fight stateside.
