Comments Thread For: Arum: Fury's Cut Shouldn't Push Back Wilder Rematch

[PotentialToast]

That cut and Whyte mandatory means Wilder v AJ or Fury or Ruiz isn't going to happen until the back end of 2020

Why are they hell bent on that February date? What is so special about it? Not like it is one of the Mexican holiday dates...It is just a random date in February.

black history month???

I can see Haymon not wanting Wilder in the undisputed match. Too dangerous.

More dangerous in terms of the possibility of being knocked out, yes - Wilder vs Joshua/Ruiz would be a case of whoever lands big first. But He already knows that in addition to Wilder not being close to good enough to out-box Fury, he knows Fury can take his best shots and keep getting up. The get out of jail card didn't work.

Explain to me how Haymon determines if Fury can fight or not.

Not so much Haymon deciding if Fury can fight, but using the possibility of a delay to take Wilder in another direction so he doesn't "risk an extended period of inactivity" - or some other promoter spin gibberish.
