As you all know I’m friends with many people in the industry. One of my close friends who is also one of Wilders close friends and immediate sparring partner tells me the fight negotiations stopped over drug testing negotiations. Fury wanted to be notified when he was going to be tested and he didn’t want testing 7 days before the fight. Wilder was willing to not allow him being tested but only 5days before not 7. As you know wbc/Vada previously had problems with Fury ahead of the Wilder fight. He stalled the testing which led to him only being tested close to fight date. Sources tell me Wilders team was furious with WBC/Vada/Fury in the previous negotiations and were not going to concede to anymore testing demands from Fury considering he has been caught cheating/doping in the past. Obviously Wilder team signed nda’s for these negotiations so they won’t be able to give “specific” details. Everyone keeps talking about the wbc purse bid but don’t be surprised if the wbc really drops Fury from their rankings this time. There was a meeting before last Wilder fury fight and fury was in serious danger of being dropped from the rankings I am hearing wbc won’t be so lenient this time.
Side note: I’m not watching any of Wilders Fury Joshua Whyte or Ortiz fights if they are against bums.
