    You’re from London so you didn’t see Floyd first 30 something fights. He was never as boring as Fury and he was an American Olympic medalist. His drawing power had a lot to do with the fact he was American. Tyson is not American. Not to mention an all time great. You shouldn’t compare Floyd situation to Fury’s drawing power. Totally different

      I’m from Vegas kid born and raised. You can’t tell me nothing. I’ve been in nearly every arena in America.
      I’m not about to sit here and argue about no Thomas and Mack center though lmfao. You win the Thomas and Mack is the best place for boxing.

        Yes the Pretty Boy era was great, but I'm just making the point that Mayweather was still able to draw in the fans and to create interest in the Money era, despite the fights being relatively unexciting. He was able to 'sell' the fight, and I think Fury has that ability too

            He needs something in the top 15 , Jennings won't cut it. Whyte will be ahead of him on boxrec by the summer ( and you can't argue with that given the opposition ) unless we get a better opponent and to be honest he looks better against better opponents.

              In other words, they are digging for a fresh body for Fury to fight.

                The difference is that Mayweather was fighting top names and dominated them so easy, that it was boring to casuals. Fury won't be fighting no top names in the division that people are interested in watching him fight and forget how boring he is.

                  yeah true, the HW division is not deep, we'll have to see how USA takes to him

                      Boxing fans can now look forward to the "big three" at heavyweight all fighting just weeks apart from another-even if they remain far apart in facing each other anytime soon. A four-week span from mid-May through mid-June will see Deontay Wilder, Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury in the ring, in separate bouts and all coming on separate platforms. BoxingScene.com has learned that Fury will return to the ring on June 15, making his first career appearance in Las Vegas atop a card to be staged at the Thomas & Mack Center.
