    Would much prefer to see a massive Wembley fight instead of Saudi but covid screwed it up.
    If you were planning to go to the fight at Wembley then fair enough but if you weren’t what difference does it make to you watching It on TV screen. The fighters obviously get more than double it being abroad so makes sense

          without aj on the scene, the highest payday fury could ever make is $10m max vs wilder..
          it's only because of aj being around that there's all this attention and speculation on the HWs.

            You guys just pull numbers out of your ass.es. No one is guaranteeing that kind of money during a pandemic. Middle East, Shiek or not. From what we heard his track meet against Ruiz lost him some stock in the Middle East

              They will pay big money to sports wash human rights abuses as to whether it is that much I dunno.

              And this is the biggest sporting event probably until the 2022 Football World Cup which is also in the middle east. In a small nation, with zero football culture, with a ridiculously hot summer. They will literally have a bunch of stadiums built for hundreds and hundreds of millions which they will then have to demolish because they wont need them after a 4 week tournament. They will even have fake clouds to stop players collapsing under the heat of a completely impractical setting.

              And of course they have bribed FIFA.

              So when you look at the sort of ridiculous non-sensical set up. You can see this fight if they had the same resolve isnt going to make them blink if they want it.

              Unless the oil has disappeared?

              But it is a bad show.

              If this were to happen that's pretty much it for the biggest fights happening anywhere else.

                135 million dollars each? I doubt they will be paid that much. It is a big fight but I don't think it is big enough to pay them that much. The people putting the fight on want to make big money too and paying the boxers 270 million probably would leave very little money for them. I don't care because I get none of that money but I just doubt they will make nearly that much.

                  I don't really care bruv, I ain't seeing any of that money and neither are you.

                  I have a bit of banter with AJ fans but I'm happy to admit that commercially, AJ is a big deal.

                  However, AJs money can't help him when Fury starts punching him in the face.

                    I wouldn’t be surprised

                    Always seems to be something shady going on with events in the Middle East. Who knows what people are getting paid and what for.

                    look at the Joshua v Ruiz event last year, Also the WWE events there and more recently a lot of musicians have been going there for performances and when you see what they’re supposedly getting paid, it seems way in excess of what revenue they’re bringing in.

                    Strange dealings indeed.
