Comments Thread For: Arum: We Are Already Making Plans For Other Opponents For Fury; Pulev Will Knock Out Joshua

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Tyson Fury should revisit plans for a third fight with Deontay Wilder-or a first fight with any other available heavyweight contender. So believes Bob Arum, Fury's Hall of Fame promoter who insists that another one of his fighters will shake up the heavyweight picture this weekend. Kubrat Pulev is a longshot underdog to dethrone unified heavyweight titlist Anthony Joshua (23-1, 21KOs) this Saturday on the road at SSE Arena-Wembley. A win in that direction will leave Arum and Top Rank with full control of every major heavyweight title, with 2021 already being planned with that possibility in mind.

That octogenarian is a lawyer who has read the contract, he could be lying but given how easy that is to disprove I'd guess not.

PS
TV companies like to make a profit they aren't interested in net revenue.

I dont understand why Fury just doesn't give Wilder the rematch. It's obvious that the pandemic caused the delay. Especially if Arum is saying they are looking for other opponents for Fury. Look no further than Wilder who he signed a rematch clause with. Be honorable. Beat Wilder convincingly again and call it a day.

I mean Bob kinda has to say this. It's literally his job, I doubt he actually believes it. If it did happen it would be less of an upset than Andy Ruiz doing it though

If this happens a lot of people will lose money and the bookies won't be happy with the payouts on pulev

Gross revenue is total sales. Take away your the costs and you have net revenue, also known as net income or profit. TV companies are not particularly interested in the gross revenue that a fight can generate. They are, however, extremely interested in what net revenue they can generate from a fight.

Be honourable? When Wilder is calling him a cheat?

Arum is making noises about looking for other opponents to try and covered his conflict of interest when it comes to Pulev vs Joshua. If Joshua wins (which is a likelihood, let's face it), then Arum has the prospect of two megafights between Fury and Joshua.

Wilder is out of the picture for a number of reasons.

Shame he couldn’t have pulled his finger out and looked at other fights sooner, prevent his fighter going over a year of inactivity!
