Comments Thread For: Tyson Fury Makes Shock Appearance During WWE SmackDown

[Buggy bear]

My money's on the bearded wrestler

I won't lie. I watched because they said The Rock would return. Fury was a extra bonus.

Fun Facts.

Yesterday's Smackdown episode was it's debut on their new network FOX.

PBC on FOX has been doing some cross promotion with Booker T appearing on PBC Inside Boxing and over their social media. Errol Spence also had a segment and was cross promoted on the WWE on FOX social media.

Since the Wilder vs Fury rematch is most likely going to be a FOX/ESPN joint PPV, it looks like this is pretty much a head start in promotion and building up Fury's overall profile even more in anticipation of the rematch.

I hope UK fans can finally understand this is why these new huge television deals with FOX and ESPN are CRUCIAL to the future success of boxing in America. NFL, MLB, WWE, the reach is just unlimited. HBO was not able to do this. These deals are planting the seed for massive growth.

The comparison would be if fights were advertised and cross promoted on whatever channel has Premier League Football in the UK.

I really wish DAZN would at least pick up their youtube and social media game, they are getting outclassed on the internet as well.

Outstanding post and you called it exactly like it is. But don’t expect militant uk fans who simply want Hearn to be in control of boxing in the USA to understand what boxing needs to thrive in the USA. I come from Britain and I understand how people think back home, “we know all about the USA because they speak English yet I don’t live there or have ever been there but I’m going to assume it’s just like our culture” mindset...

What if Fury retires to become a pro wrestler, wouldn't put it past him he'd fit right in

[Marchegiano]

Great move by team fury, hope it works out for him. WWE would be a great place for him after he retires.

[El_Mero]

Fury walking in the footsteps of PBF. Daring to be great.

Lmao.....I'm talkin the exposure, getting his name/face out there.

[rckdees]

This dudes next fight is a cash out

[Someone88]

Lol cool this is great for Fury's profile!

grown men who still watch wrestling probably need help....you can see by my "handle" that I enjoyed it as a youth...who didnt? it was great....then i grew up...bunch of oiled up tanned guys fake fighting....i get it they do some cool stuff that takes athleticism and whatever...its a different game now....but its still fake fighting and overdone with the fake drama and its over saturated now....guys that still follow have some latent **** issues
