      He can, but he was all over ESPN leading up to their first fight.

      I'm interested in seeing if UFC buys are increasing with their ESPN deal or more of the same.

        AJ. has set the financial benchmark and every one inc. Arum ,The Hearns ,Tyson and the networks can smell a dollar.Disappointing for us the fans as it leads us on to and in to fights with fringe contenders we don't ask for and don't really want to see.

        If we the fans had our way we would already know who the victor of A.J. and Wilder is.Now for the time being we have to just argue who is the best out there and wait until these greedy promoters have completely filled their pockets .

        Lennox is right we just want to see the best fight the best .I do agree for the fighters it makes money sense but as a fan i'm sooooo frustrated !

          Tyson can outbox Wilder
          Wilder cannot KO Tyson
          Considering he was a second or so from KOing Fury in the 12th round, I don't know why you would think he can't KO him. Sure he can. Fury will rightfully be the favorite as he is the much more skilled boxer, but not a guarantee he wins a rematch. Just a really good fight.

But that is what it is, a business, and our new broadcast and promotional partners in the US want to maximise the potential of what is a great heavyweight showdown by placing it later in the year.

              Tyson will solidify his position as the face of boxing and become the cash cow. Throw the lions at him. live dogs who will force a war, to showcase his depth and finesse as a pugilist, Sweet Pea in Goliaths' body.

              WAR FURY!!!!

              Soon to be not just lineal, but undisputed. The kingpin. The boogeyman.

                Only if he can hold it together long enough, it’s really not a foregone conclusion he’s a genuine fruit cake, I give it 3 more fights tops, 3 more presser runs, 3 more training camps and then I think he’ll be back on the sofa eating sausage rolls.

                  "The magnitude of such an epic showdown will only increase". How exactly is that an accurate statement? Unless Fury beats someone like Ortiz, Whyte, or Joyce how will his stock go up? If Fury fights a bum and looks sloppy his drawing power will decrease. Tyson Fury is an awkward, tall, no power fighter with decent boxing skills. He looks like crapola on most nights. This is nothing but a money grab. Typical boxing B.S.

                    We need to organize a Fan's Union in order to express the wishes and desires of the paying public. And to express the dissatisfactions too...by calling for boycotts and other strategies that withhold our money from the promoters.

                    That's the only way we will have a seat at the table when fights are being planned.

                      Exactly! There's no way ESPN/Arum recoups their investment without a Wilder or Joshua fight. There's no way in hell team Joshua let's anyone have a big enough piece of the pie to do that and that just leaves Wilder. Let's see team Wilder bend them over a couple of fights down the road.
