Originally posted by Squared.Circle View PostFrom what I've read, July and October were both postponed due to the bicep injury; Whiner was in no position to compete in July and would unlikely be ready for October; and the December date by ESPN due to American football. Both of which are excluded from the exceptions clause, with injuries being specifically mentioned.
Fury wasn't "in control" of the dates, either. They have to negotiate. I know that's an avoided word for Ducktay Whiner fans, but that's how contracts are formed.
The contract legally expired in October, that's not up for debate. What is up for debate is whether or not exceptions can be made for an extension due to the coronavirus, which, considering boxing events have been taking place in the States since June, is a no.
What other potential date is Hearn supposed to give? March? April? AJ typically fights every six months, his last fight was in December, so....
If Whiner wins the arbitration (he really won't), then Fury will be contractually bound...in the US, nowhere else. What do you really think is gonna happen? CIA fly into the Middle East and stop Fury fighting due to contractual obligations?
The WBC has no dog in that race either, so they won't strip Fury. And, ya know, We Be Crooks would rather have some of that mega money from AJ vs. Fury than the comparable peanuts from Ducktay Whiner being embarrassed by Fury for a third time.
AJ vs. Fury is happening, whether the small minority like it or not
