Absolutely not. AJ remains the A side as long as he keeps winning. Wilder must beat AJ to become the A side. KOing Fury will not do that for him. He was supposed to KO Fury but he failed to do so. He would not have become the A side if he had KOed Fury.

Fury-Wilder 2 does close to a million PPV buys in the States. It's a ****ing huge fight.
The Fury knockdown has caught the casual fan. The promo for the fight is going to be insane, the man with the biggest punch in world boxing, against the man who can't be knocked out.
If Fury-Wilder 2 does 1 million PPV buys and Wilder wins, he's a genuine US PPV star. He could then fight Breazele and sell 300-400k PPV buys, which equates to AJ's 1 million in the UK, in terms of revenue.

Rematches do equal or less numbers than the original fight.

Do you honestly believe the fight does equal or less?
There's a reason why they don't. We've already seen them mix it up. The mystery is gone.
The only time I can think of is Pac/Marquez III, which happened 3 years later and after Pac fought DLH, Hatton and Cotto.Last edited by rolshans; 01-03-2019, 09:12 PM.
