    It’s not for the UK fans like me who actually go to fights...

    I’d much rather go to Vegas than Saudi Arabia.

        Why are people finding it surprising?

        Fury is in an $80m deal so he HAS to do what ESPN tells it to do. And ESPN will stage US fights under Bob Arum. End of story until someone can convince them it will be more business (both short and long run) to do it in the UK.

        That, plus Fury ain't even a fan of the UK given his complaints on how he was treated there. He probably lives in the US while he boxes, then retire and move back to the UK with a second/primary home in Europe. You'll probably see him in music, TV, etc. with some WWE stuff or exhibition matches every now and then to keep some income. Rest, he would be roaming around in his caravan, enjoying life with his family and close friends.

            Bro... It’s all speculation but my perspective is driven on the success of this fight. I think it will be a huge success financially given the buzz being generated.

            If Tyson loses, and even massively, the media will manufacture an excuse for his loss. It’s too easy to do with the fans of today.

            If Tyson is retiring anyway, the mindset will be why not get one more big bag for the road.

            If Tyson won by a decision he would jump back in for another big bag knowing he could probably make it without getting KO’d again. The negotiations are easier on the Wilder side and the fight is already proven... in that scenario AJ would be sidelined due to the very large and easy going bird in hand.

            The only way wouldn’t see them run it back would be if Wilder was somehow knocked out early. I think Tyson would take that dominance and run for the hills. His Superstar status would be so big every fight would be huge. However I just don’t see that as any where near as likely.

            Another far reaching possibility is Wilder by scorecards, which is likely going to lead to an immediate rematch also.

            I get what you are saying but it makes sense if the fight does decent numbers.

            If it’s the expected a massive PPV... in this current boxing market everyone will be coming back for thirds.

                He claims he would destroy Joshua but he turned down a fight with him already.

                Look at Fury's record. Its puffed up. He's vulnerable.
                I hear your point but it's always better to take two lesser fights for the money of one challenging fight. As a fan I don't like it but business wise its smart.

                  If Fury wins he can't fight anyone else but Wilder if the rematch clause is triggered. He would lose massive money in a lawsuit. Further, do you really think Fury is gonna jump back in with Wilder after getting slept twice. I think people underestimate the impact of the shot he took and the fact that he doesn't remember getting up.

                    Lol ar Frank 'no money's Warren saying Fury decides lol.
                    Both Fury and Wilder will put obstacles in the way of an AJ fight then say AJ is ducking.
                    It's pretty obvious neither wants it.
                    Expect the trilogy, then, when they each have 1 win and the draw, they'll done fourth fight. You heard it here first. WBC is a joke and these two will be dance partners like the Harlem Globetrotters Vs The Washington Generals or whatever they were called. Eventually Dubois or Efe Ajagba will get the WBC and either of those actually has balls so will fight AJ.
