I'm more like "1st Joshua came with that BS flat-fee offer..." Yeah, I don't think Arum would try to make Fury vs. Parker. That sucks! Maybe Fury vs. Pulev or Fury vs. Oscar Rivas! I'm cool with those two...ON ESPN!Comment

Fury’s got time on his side. I don’t really blame him for taking the money; it’s a huge sum of money and he can still make the Wilder fight.
I do think it’s a bad investment for Arum though. Fury can be in an exciting fight with Wilder because of Wilder’s fight-ending power creating tension (with Fury playing the skilful matador)
He’s likely to look boring and weak against other fighters (other than Joshua), he can’t generate interest with impressive KOs because he can’t generate them to save his life.
So I see Arum pouring money into a diminishing asset.Comment

Both fighters said they wanted but because Tyson Fury signed a deal that took care of him financially he has to be the fighter that Ducked. Personally Tyson is not all there he rarely follows through with rematches but I can never question his heart. He threw himself in the deep end to be rewarded which he has. He should already have the WBC strap. He doesn’t and I couldn’t care less . However , there is no doubting the fighter that gained mostly in the Dec 1st bout was Fury. It is Wilder that needs the rematch more than Fury.
I watched an interview with Fury even after him signing the deal that all he wants is Wilder still. He contradicts himself daily but so does Wilder. Why would Wilder come out and say he is a free agent? Did you honestly see him going to ESPN or DAZN? Of course you didn’t so why did he say it then?
Wilder was so hell bent on the rematch that his team didn’t want to entertain becoming undisputed which is weird. It is what it is
Fury is the one that pulled out of the rematch. No two ways about it.Comment

So Wilder and Fury’s team have been negotiating a rematch the last couple months. All we heard was that it was a foregone conclusion that the fight was happening. Then, in the eleventh hour Fury pulls an autible and signs with Arum, which he had to know was gonna make it tough to do a rematch. Then, they send Wilder a deal which includes having to sign a multi-fight deal with Arum. Then the new Team Fury publically acknowledges that they want an interim fight. Yet you still find a way to indirectly blame Wilder for the rematch not happening immediately, which both Wilder and Fury say they wanted, until Tyson signed Arum. So yeah, your logic is ******.Comment
