LAS VEGAS Bob Arum apparently has higher expectations for the Deontay Wilder-Tyson Fury rematch with each passing day. Fury's co-promoter predicted during a post-fight press conference Saturday night that when Wilder and Fury fight again, it'll have become so big that their second showdown will either exceed or match the profitability of the most lucrative event in boxing history.

I think we'd have to look at what ESPN+ figures he draws for his next fight , but cant see it beating may v pac, prob more closer hatton v mayweather figures, around 1000,000
They could if Fury fights and beats someone dangerous, Wilder is fighting Ortiz, Fury needs to fight somebody better than shc***** To generate major interest. They both have to do there parts!
Arum did not make Mayweather-Pac happen, Floyd did. Arum know for delay & ducking. Fury now Duck Wilder, Crawford ducking Spence til he leaves 147, Loma ducking Mikey until Spence laid blueprint
With ESPN and TR backing and more known, Crawford can't even break 150k ppvs. What makes ppl think that Fury will even become a big thing fighting bums on ESPN+.
