    Fury vs Wilder 3 should be in the UK or even Ireland

    I'd like to see the reception Wilder would get in Belfast tbh

    Anyway Wilder has had home advantage both times so far, this time Fury should enjoy it

    Financially I don't think there will be a HUGE market in the US for it, though it would do respectable I think the US market is ready for undisputed.

    It'd no doubt be massive in the UK though.

    Ireland would be good with a crowd they go crazy at any event but not sure about the UK unless it has Eddie Hearn, Sweet Caroline, some shandy beers and Joshua to cuck them with their girlfriends the Matchroom fans aint interested

      Agreed. If we have to do this a third time having it in the UK would at least add an interesting new twist to things. It'd fill out a stadium easy too.

        Why?

        Wilder isn’t a commodity outside of the US

        Makes more sense to sell both as much as possible

          Wilder isn't a commodity anywhere.

          Fury is the star attraction, Wilder is simply a background performer

            If a set venue is not in the contract then Fury holds the cards..

            Wilder will definitely want a safe haven, he's going to get mentally tortured right through the build up.. could he also handle a crowd at the fight giving it to him?

              Wilder is known in boxing circles in the US at least. This is a rematch that nobody really cares for. Makes much more sense to market this where more people actually care

                Deontay Wilder has been protected his whole career, and Tyson Fury is a road warrior. So it doesn't really matter. Actually does more for Fury's legacy in the long run, to have been the only Brit willing to fight Wilder, not once, but three times in his own country.

                  UK is good because they recovered from the pandemic faster and could fill a stadium easier than the U.S. Not really bothered about hometown advantage because Wilder probably needs a KO anyway, so the judges won't matter. Both fighters need to make as much $$$ as possible from this because I have a feeling it's going to be a full-scale war even more brutal than the first two fights combined.

                    I'll guess it ends up in the Middle East.

                    It just doesn't have the value anywhere else.
