Arum overpaid to kill the Fury/Wilder rematch. Sucks for fans but apparently the money was too good for Fury to turn down.

Arum doesn’t like his major stars playing with anyone else. Always been that way. Fury, at approx $20mill a fight, is now one of his major stars.
At the very least you have to acknowledge this makes the Wilder fight much more difficult to make.

Gonna need to do some cross promotional thing for his 5 fights considering he doesn't even have 5 fighters.

Has he been on Showtime since the TR/ESPN deal started?

And I haven't seen Parker on the TR website...will check again though.
EDIT - The Parker thing seems murky, like it may have been on a fight by fight basis through Parkers promoters back home?Last edited by _Rexy_; 02-18-2019, 05:07 PM.
