This is the second time that Tyson has avoided the 'Bronze-Bomber' Deontay Wilder.
Duck the bronze bomber? Lololololol have you even heard from him since? After seeing your emperor demolished, wilderlites are Still going with the story anyone that doesn’t face him is ducking. Wilder has a legally binding contract to face Fury so if Fury has scheduled to face someone it simply means Wilder has not yet recovered or is still working on his boxing behind closed doors........head up ex champComment

Some you make me laugh with your fanboyism.
The problem Fury has is that it isn't a matter of Wilder not wanting to fight.
Wilder hasn't turned down ANYTHING.
It's about the promoters (including both Warren and Arum) moving off dates because they don't feel they can make enough money to guarantee the money due Fury and Wilder.
"We're moving off because there's five conference championship games that day and night, plus two NFL games," Arum said. "So we can't go with the 19th; we're looking at other dates right now because ESPN advised us, and Fox advised the PBC [which promotes Wilder]."

Here's Arum moving off the July date:
"You could not guarantee the fighters that the event would take place on that date. We couldn't convince them or ourselves," Arum told ESPN of a possible July 18 fight. "Where were they going to train for it? It just made no sense. You just have to take a step back. How are you going to sell tickets? It's absolutely ridiculous to say the fight is on when the Brits can't even get there."
So, the narrative Warren and Fury are pushing- that Wilder's ability to enforce the rematch clause has expired- is bogus in one of two ways.
Either it hasn't expired; or the reason it has expired is a direct result of actions taken by Fury's promoters.
Either way, that ain't good if you're trying to justify moving on.
This situation is more complex that a lot of folks think...Comment
