    Haymons probably on the phone trying to sign them now lol

      Look at the new WBO ratings and it'll all make sense.

        Opponents are irrelevant. This is about belts. Arum will do what he can to try to get at least one of two belts off of Joshua. Whether that's Pulev as IBF mandatory, Fury as WBO mandatory, Fury as WBA mandatory, etc. Arum needs to get ESPN a world heavyweight championship belt.

          Thats why i suggested Charr or Trevor Bryan those are "belts" that they will shamelessly promote as a true heavyweight championship belt

              Arum is a genuine poison to the progression of this sport. What a deplorable scumbag.

                Shouldn’t be a suprise

                It’ll take time for outdoor stadiums to be built, time to make sure it can do a MillIon PPV and a little while to get over Furys sudden fear of needles. Then it’s basically a go once Arum is able to find out and confirm if Haymon really exists and see if that POS who’s a cancer to the sport is interested in making the fight.

                Shouldn’t take long

                  If they can buy those belts, sure, but that would still be part of a larger effort to pressure Joshua into vacating at least one of his titles.

                    And what happens if/when DAZN/Sky Sports win the purse bid against Fury? Then what? Will ESPN just let him fight on that network as well as BT Sports? If he wants a title, then easy, go fight Wilder next. That fight has already been ordered.

                      Hasn't Breazeale agreed to fight Whyte? Why is he still mentioned as Wilder's next alternative fight?
