    Not entirely unrelated but i've just see an ad for wilder vs fury 2 while on instagram?? I dread to think how much they've spent on advertising for this fight. Between YT, IG and the superbowl adds, it must be close to 20 million. Maybe we are on the cusp of a 2m PPV fight after-all. I just hope it isn;t a snooze fest
    damn bro u in Dubai? aint they trying to do AJ fights there more often?

    I think its gonna be a snoozer(but I hope I'm wrong) Fury knows his best option is to outbox DW. The extra weight tells me hes gonna try to wrestle and clinch like a mofo. Man I hope I'm wrong.

      Yeah buddy! I actually went out to the aj vs ruiz rematch, was only a 2 hour flight to Saudi They're trying to bid for more in UAE, hopefully we see something in the future. It's a beautiful place and folks would have a great time in the week before the fight i'm sure.

        Thats awesome bro I'm glad you got to go. I hope for your sake they bring some more big fights for you.

        I love how they announced the fight and made the Brand new stadium in like 30 days right? LOL thats impressive!

        How was the crowd at the AJ fight? was it mostly local ballers or did lot of brits come out to support AJ?

          It was a controversial decision rather than robbery. Fury might not have landed much more. But he made him miss so much, which shows superior defense and makes opponent look like a bum, or nfl player turned boxer.
          If you was being generous to wilder, wilder could have a draw. But fury should have won by 2 points at least

            As you say Fury barely landed more , got flattened twice it was close and nothing like a robbery

              Read post 24 again I've revised it.
              115-111 was probably the correct score for fury. Wilder got x2 10-8 rounds, and x1 10-9 round.
              If your generous to WIlder maybe x2 10-9 rounds to Wilder. Making it 114-112 to Fury.

                  ... was Andre Ward a "mofo" in your view?...

                    If fights were judged like one big round, yes there was a good case for a draw. But on round by round scoring Fury won comfortably even with those two 10-8s.

                      Wilder only has to win 3/10 rounds for it to be a draw. Wilder got 2 10-8 rounds with the 2 knockdowns.


                      If you can find 3 more rounds to give Wilder, its a draw.


                      Robbery my ass.
