Looking less and less likely... Wilder camp in disarray, no fans cause of Covid, Fury looking elsewhere. Oh well... We can only hope for Joshua vs Fury next spring.

It’s October 12th there’s no way Wilder is taking the fight ,he stayed silent for a reason . He’s not going to fight Fury with less then 2 months practically. No way ,if he does bet your house he loses badly .

Nobody bothered to let Sulaiman know.

They don’t have to ,it’s only contracted between team Fury and Wilder it wasn’t mandated by the WBC . Sulaiman cannot force Tyson to fight Wilder next if there is anything legal on it team Wilder has to take issue with it which I doubt they will . As stated they cannot hold up a mans career and. They will lose any legal battle here . Sulaiman can control mandatory positions that’s about it here .

Fight just doesn’t make financial sense with no crowd.
As a co promotion the second fight had to do a million plus buys to be profitable and it fell way short.
With no live gate and less interest after Wilder laid an egg I don’t see this one happening again.

I think it did make a profit after online buys were counted. Unless that's just promoter lies to save face.

Why is WBC guy even talking about this? Did he see the contract & know what the terms & deadlines are?

Wilder is finished as Hagler was he going to get dropped by Haymon if he sits this out. His fanbase in the US is non-existent and his saving grace was he was a champ. PBC will drop his ass in two weeks if Fury walks off.
