Even football games etc. Anything to be seen and get their brand out there in the public's eye.

I see. So we establish you were wrong on all fronts of your original comments, so now you jump on the 'Fury is crap' bandwagon. Meanwhile, Wilder went thru 40 cans. And Fury arguably beat the 'boogy man'. What pasta will you throw out there next hoping it will stick to the wall?
Fury should try promoting himself by fighting a decent opponent. Crazy idea i know...
not a wrestling fan, and not much of a Fury fan due to who he has fought lately but I dont knock anyone trying to promote themself, [ most know those 2 vegas fights did not do to much to help ] , perhaps this is why he has resorted to dealing with Vince McMahon?
I’m quite serious. And you speak of Muhammad Ali? He was ALREADY a global phenom and the most recognizable human on earth. Boxing was also in its prime as a main stream sport. He didn’t need to participate in a wraaaaasssling event for self promotion or to resurrect boxing. So please take the time to actually read what I write and under what context before commenting and defending wrrrrassssling. The wraaaaasling entertainment venue is for simpletons. And yes I’ll say it again, your sport is in the toilet when you have to attend fake fighting to build a fan base and notoriety.
Ali was promoting his upcoming fight at Yankee Stadium vs Ken Norton...in any case not a wrestling fan, but I am familiar with the spectacles it creates...and not much of a Fury fan due to who he has fought lately but I dont knock anyone trying to promote themself, [ most know those 2 vegas fights did not do to much to help ] , perhaps this is why he has resorted to dealing with Vince McMahon?
