      This is BS.
      Bob Arum a walking contradiction.
      One minute its big fights don't need to marinate.
      Next minute its completely different.
      Politics in boxing really makes you not want to watch or get involved in the sport.
      Eventually everyone will just be casual fans when ****** shyt like this keeps happening.
      Promoters and fighters just lie to the general public way to often.

        Bob Arum must be out of his Goddamned mind if he believes that Deontay Wilder would fight Tyson Fury exclusively on his ESPN platform while cutting Al Haymon and Stephen Espinoza completely out in the process.

        There must be at least a simulcast; As was the case in Lewis/Tyson and Mayweather/Pacquiao. Bob knows better. He can't even get Mikey Garcia or even Erroll Spence, Jr. To fight exclusively on ESPN.

          Signing a nutcase like Fury could go south for a million reasons beyond losing a fight. But yea Wilder is ******** on the rematch but it wasn't his choice to do so. Or at least with what I've read about the fight talks Wilder wasn't trying to throw some sketchy terms in there. Sounds like the main problem for Fury's was getting neutral judges. Wilder ain't got nothing to do with that. Thats a commission thing.

            I guess we wait. We’re lifelong boxing fans, so we’re used to it.

            AJ/Miller (best chance of an upset due to styles)
            Fury/Parker (hopefully less boring than Parker/HFury
            Wilder/Breazele (well, there will be a KO at least)
