How long before people say Wilder is ducking ?

"The last fight got the highest ever grossing fight to take place in Vegas, that is a massive amount of money, 20 million, and that's not going to be there. So you've got to find it so the guys can get the purses they are looking for."

They should just cancel the fight and go straight to Fury/Joshua.

Pay off Kubrat Pulev to step ?

Everyone needs to sit down and know they aren’t going to find that extra money. Unless Wilder finds his passport and leave his comfort zone. Maybe a foreign country would pay for that fight. But with Wilder not willing to travel I doubt he would want that. Holding Fury’s career isn’t cool. Let him go on and fight Joshua.

They don’t need to, Arum already said “F mandatories” .... They should hold him to that.

Holding Fury’s career isn’t cool? You think for one second Fast Eddy is going to let his golden goose fight in a potential mega fight with no crowds as well?

Newsflash: the AJ fight wouldn’t be made either.

Money > Mandos

Especially if the mandos are big dogs. Pulev stands no chance.

I heard that Sefer Seferi has a older brother named Nuri Seferi, he is known as the 'Albanian Tyson'. There are over a 100 cruiserweights ranked higher than Nuri Seferi, this guy fits the Gypsy-Bum Tyson Fury's criteria when picking a opponent : useless, willing to take a dive and gay.

Highest ever grossing fight to take place in Vegas...for a heavyweight. That's important to note. Furthermore, it's only the highest ever heavyweight bout in Vegas by something like $200,000, just edging Lewis vs. Holyfield 2. And it was actually around $16-17m, not 20. And if one wants to get nitpicky, Lewis vs. Holyfield 2 would be $24m if it had taken place in 2020 when taking into account the inflation rate. Just saying
