Comments Thread For: Fury-Wilder 3 Can Do 1.5 Million PPV Buys, Former HBO Boss Says

Only way I can see it working is if they have a co-main event. Never seen a card that was more in need of one.

I think the third fight will be even bigger than the last fight 'Because it is the final chapter of their rivalry'.

Come down in price $20, make the undercard 3 competitive world championship calibre fights, get wilder to actually have a personality this time rather than the subdued version he was leading up to the 2nd fight and maybe so.

Still think the best course of action is to put wilder in with someone he can look great against and set him up for the winner of fury vs Joshua. Obviously there’s the risk that wilder isn’t mentally the same fighter anymore and gets beat by the next live body he faces.

I disagree.. Furys got another wwe fight coming up.. And everyone is interested to see Fury and Wilder in the Trilogy.. So it should do great numbers.. Im not sure about the gate.. But since theres no other fights to watch.. All eyes would definitely be on this... No doubt! People want to see if Wilder will bounce back and KO Fury.. And people also want to see If Fury can win again. The interest is there.. Trust me! If u don't want to see it again.. U are not a boxing fan. Period!

would draw more interest if it were 1-1....but most feel Fury is up 2-0. The real hype and interest is for Fury/AJ.

I think it can get huge numbers because it should be one of the first big fights back from coronavirus.

It wont there 2nd match was the most hype it was going to get and it only did 800k so now after clear wins no one is intrigued the question if his knockout power would win against technique got answered. Not saying Wilder doesnt have a chance to win but this is going to do less ppv buys.

800 PPV for the last fight was a lie. It did way less than that. And the next fight will do paltry numbers at best. You guys are pumping Fury up to be unbeatable but he has always had trouble staying the course with success. The real question is what will Fury do if/when he beast Wilder again. Will he fight Whyte, or get stripped? Or actually fight AJ?

One annoying thing about boxing is how everyone lies. Everyone knows they're lying. And it doesn't matter.

[ShoulderRoll]

The truth of the matter is that the general public's not interested in Fury/Wilder III. It's Fury Vs Joshua that the paying public want to see, for the true undisputed H/W championship of the World. Wilder Vs Whyte Should work well as a final elimination challenge contest for now.!!....

Who the hell wants to see a third fight? Wilder got his ass whipped and it wasn't a regular ol' L, Fury completely destroyed his ass.

Bring on Fury vs Joshua.

Anthony Joshua is not a draw in America. Last time he was here he was sent back home with his tail between his legs.

At this point the contractually obligated third fight between Fury vs Wilder is a much bigger PPV money maker in the US.

No way.. Read the comments.. Most people say Fury didn't make the count in the first fight! An the Farmer bs got people scratching their head.. An we all seen ricky hatton cheating in the first Wilder fight.. So it taints everything for Fury.. An what's worse is he's been caught cheating vs hammer! And wladimir!! Sooo.. This trilogy will settle the score.. If Fury wins.. Then it's on to AJ! If Wilder wins.. Then it's on to AJ! I don't care who wins.. Because regardless.. the undisputed fight will be in America.. So I'll be good either way!
