Comments Thread For: Arum: We Don't Need WBC To Dictate Wilder-Fury Rematch Purses

[todisday]

Fight is off.

55-45 or 50/50 . Also now that bob arum is involved this fight isn't going down soon. Let's see Crawford not fighting Spence or Thurman. It took PAC vs mayweather 6 years. Lomachancko not fighting Davis or Mikey Garcia blame Mayweather for the lomachancko vs Davis not happening on the near future for Mayweather gone milk Davis as long as possible before a real contest

Fights not happening time for wilder to move on. Fury killed the rematch

Fight is off. Arum wants the fight on ESPN just like he wants every fight of his. He will not allow any of his fighters to fight off ESPN unless he loses a purse bid. And those purse bids he loses is mainly for fighters that are building their name up. Arum talks about working with other promoters and Haymon not allowing his fighters to fight on ESPN, but its pretty much Arum who is strong arming fighters from different promoters to fight on ESPN. It's not like he's working with other promoters and having his fighters fights on their networks. I guess people feel its ok for Arum to force everyone to fight his top fighters on ESPN and come out an say he works with every promoter. Fury isn't fighting AJ orWilder anytime soon.

60-40 to Wilder isn't fair.

Morally maybe, if you had Fury winning the first fight which I did. However, like it or not Wilder is the champion and he deserves the lion share of the money. Being a belt holder has to mean something? At least let it mean something monetary wise. 60/40 is more than fair. In any case Fury gives his money to charity so let’s not worry about his percentage

That's right Arum we don't but we don't need you to dictate Wilder-Fury rematch purses either because you want to give your guy a higher percentage split of the purse than Deontay Wilder; Which is another deal breaker since Wilder is the A-side by being the WBC's heavyweight champion.

Arum isn't allowing any of those guys to fight off ESPN. Why not work with Haymon and have Spence/Crawford of Showtime and Garci/Loma on ESPN, seems fair to me when he talks about working with other promoters and trading fighters. However, Arums idea of working with other promoters means him forcing them to fight on ESPN or else no fight.

Fight is off.

Yeah! You are damn right because there's not a snowball's chance in Hell this fight is featured on ESPN when Al Haymon has two other platforms of his own to feature this fight on.
