Fury is going to pull another fury on wilder and fight someone else lol. Wilder only announced the fury fight because he was getting tore up for the Ortiz fight.
Showtime is going to need all the help it can get when their own spokesman Jim grey ****ted on the Ortiz rematch for world to see in that post fight interview before wilder could announce it lol.Comment

So you know the deal do you? Is it signed? You sure it wasn't just Fury having a bi polar episode and agreeing to whatever Wilder said on the phone and changing his mind tomorrow or next week?Comment

There is an easy argument ticket sales & eyes on you beats the moves Team Wilder has made during Joshua's fight week, but that still doesn't change the fact Team Wilder has stepped all over Joshua's fight week & has the more interesting fights in the recent past & in the near future. Its easy to dog Wilder for his bs setup fights pre-title, but he's turned things up more & more as we've moved forward & Joshua has seemed to be coasting more despite the US debut he's about to have.
The last 18ish months for both guys:
Joshua
Oct 2017-Takam in a boring fight where Takam lasts way longer than most expected
Mar 2018-Weird fight vs Parker where Joshua is calling his own timeouts at various points
Sept 2018-most fun Joshua fight since the Klitschko a year & a half ago
June 2019-8mos off & vs a late sub who's weighing in at 268
Next-likely Pulev or Whyte, maybe Usyk if we're lucky
Wilder
Nov 2017-KO1 vs Bermane, the only guy who took Wilder the distance up til this point
Mar 2018-comeback KO vs Ortiz in Wilder's most competitive & exciting fight up til this point
Dec 2018-draw vs Fury in a top 3 battle in the division
Apr 2019-KO1 vs mando "Boobs" Breazeale
Sept 2019-rematch with Ortiz
Jan/Feb 2020-rematch with Fury
Regardless of ticket sales Wilder is the more fun product right now on May 31, 2019 & has been more fun in the recent path & looking more fun into the future.Comment
