    How on earth do K2 think they have a say in where this fight takes place? Fury went into Klit-land and won his belts.
    Wlad needs to **** off

    Fury should be the one calling the shots now. He earned it.

    Interesting rule, I wonder if the retractable roof thing was in the contracted portion of the rematch clause

    I'd kind of like to see Wlad go over there

    Depends on what's in the rematch clause. Seems like K2 still has the rights to call most of the shots.

    I also feel it should be Fury's right to stage the fight where he pleases. Thing is he signed a contract and probably was fully aware that K2 has control over a rematch should it happen. That's what Fury was paid a higher than average purse for.

    Disgraceful. Fury still being dictated to like he's the B side challenger.

    Who is going to promote it if it's at Wembley? Mick Hennessy?? No chance. Wembley costs a packet and has a ton of issues around it. It makes zero business sense to hold it there and the Germans will happily pay Fury and team millions for his services again and all they have to do is turn up..Fury will have no problem with it and they have all commented about how well they were treated in Düsseldorf

    Fury shoudlnt have signed the rematch and not taken the $500k extra or whatever they paid for it. He'd be in a much better negotiating position now.

    What makes you think he was given a choice. Fury complained he was forced to sign a rematch clause . Bounter wasn't happy when Fury made that public.
