Turns out it backfired though as the only people who do not believe Wilder lost that fight are a couple of dodgy judges and his own die hard fans. I was a neutral on it and thought Fury should have won by at least 3 rounds.
Jack Reiss' ten count was about a split second too slow. Any other referee would have reached the count of 10 before Tyson got up before the count of nine and waved the fight off. Therefore, Tyson should be counting his lucky stars that he was given some extra time.
It's the reason why he's avoided the rematch. In addition, it's the reason why Wilder wants the rematch so badly because he felt that Fury got away with a referee's gift decision in that fight.

Originally posted by DougalDylan View PostFinkel won't have told him, Wilder does as he's told.
He gives a minimum of at least 40 interviews per day on various social media outlets. However at the same time, I am more than confident that this fight is getting closer to fruition every day as we speak.
Al Haymon and Shelly Finkel obviously trusts and respects John Skipper more than they do Matchroom and they are keeping and remaining in close contact and constant talks with him daily. So that is a good sign.
I am confident that the fight would happen sometime next year because both Joshua and Wilder want it. Moreover, it's just too much money to be made for that fight not to happen.

I personally believe that the ice is melting and that Deontay Wilder is slowly warming up to the idea of challenging Anthony Joshua for the undisputed heavyweight championship of the world again.
He wants it, Joshua wants it and the fans wants it but more importantly there is a lot of money on the table for that fight to happen. Damn a Tyson Fury rematch. Let's just make this fight happen because it has historical significance.

Originally posted by champion4ever View PostHe wants this fight to get made too. He wanted this fight made ever since 2018 when he was willing to fight on foreign soil for a flat-fee.
No, he just pretended to be willing, then didn't sign the contract when it was sent to him and left his fans to make a dozen bullshit excuses for his for lying and ducking.

Originally posted by Ake-Dawg View PostSo the nitwits are out already. Fury talks weren't private? Did the media know anything about what was offered or negotiated? No. That's what private is. Further, when Joshua signs or agrees to a deal with DAZN to fight Wilder on a specific date or within a date range AND Wilder refuses to sign a similar deal. We should ALL drag him. Until then, the Joshualites are just grasping for straws.
