[Clegg]

It would be funnier if he was his Gypsy Yuri Foreman, injuring his knee and getting stopped.

I’m now more interested in the Tyson Fury Fat Reducing Grilling Machine than the next fight.

Everytime something even remotely close to the topic of Wilder\fury comes up it turns into a debate about who won, the 2 knockdowns, promoters, networks etc.... What we should be doing is demanding the rematch so they can settle it in the ring. No amount of arguing online is going to settle it.

There's even weirdos on here who don't wanna see the rematch happen Just so they can ARGUE ENDLESSLY about the first fight.

I know don't what's more screwed up anymore- boxing or boxing fans.

Amen! Could not have said it any better myself.

“We think that he’s a very charismatic guy and we think that we can make a lot of noise with him because he is so charismatic. We can’t wait to get started. He’s fun. He’s like my gypsy George Foreman.”

“We think that he can be a real major player in boxing because of his personality,” Arum said

This is why certain fighters become "the villains" because skills alone don't sell as much as "charisma." Notice how Arum didn't even mention his fighting abilities!

of course you need charisma to sell fights. if its base on skills alone then guys like rigo would be the top guy right now.

The only rematch is Fury vs pianeta 2. There will be no Wilder rematch. He fluffed his lines. He was supposed to go in there and do a number and inside bamboozled for 10 of the 12 rounds and brought doubt to the discussion that who is the best heavyweight. The only good thing that has come out of the December 1st fight is that Johnson baby oil shares is booming

Lol.. Fury vs Parker is probably more like it! Fury almost died dec 1... so I dont blame him... most people learn there lesson the first time they get bit by a Shark... they join a pro bowling league! Lol

Fury will become a Bigger star in America than Anthony Joshua,, not only because of the new ESPN deal but Tyson ain't afraid to be himself and speak his mind he's 10X more interesting as a person than AJ.

Arum must have had his first erection in decades after signing Tyson Fury

If Tyson holds it together there is mega money that awaits.
