    Just seen him on you tube on American TV show saying Fury deserves a rematch and we will definitely do it next.Got to take the man at his word given how easy the first fight got made.Can't see Tyson sidestepping it either.He didn't mention Britain though,Las Vegas and New York the only 2 places he mentioned for venues.

    Vegas will take the fight. It's now a huge PPV fight in the States.

    Frank said Vegas the day after. Tyson will be straight back on it as it will build his US profile quickly.

    This fight will rebuild Adelaide Byrd's profile too after it took a bit of a tumble last year.

    It'll be great if Wilder and Fury are both true to their words on this happening next.
    Also, it remains to be seen whether WBC will order the mandatory ...... ?

    A rematch makes the most sense.

    As far as "the other heavyweight champion" goes, this development is both good and bad for AJ.
    On the downside, he'd be losing more of the share of the limelight and probably lose at least some of his "A side" financial clout when it comes to getting a fight with the winner.
    On the plus side, he can sit comfortably on the sidelines while Fury and Wilder knock lumps out of each other again, putting mileage on their bodies.

    Also for as much as he will be given up some percentage points in the contract, you would imagine the overall pie will be getting a fair bit bigger.

    This is assuming he does not go on to fight Whyte the Chinese dude and Miller.

    I'm not convinced Wilders team will want this again,I tend to think they will be looking to cash in with AJ rather than risk losing in a rematch.

    They are stuck in a difficult spot.
    Neither option is ideal at this stage for them.

    And this time Tyson will get what is rightfully his. He will be even lighter this time around. And let's be honest, the Fury we saw on Saturday night wasn't even close to the one we saw in 2015. The movement wasn't quite there, it still needs some work. Wilder's team can act like that was the best Fury but it wasn't. And what they also can't dispute was that it was THE BEST Wilder in that ring. Because that's what it was. He's 33, not going to get any better.

    And they can't play the suspicious judging card anymore. We've had a few too many recently, and Al 'Moneygrabber' Haymon and his lot know it. If Fury gets below 250, which I'd say is the ideal weight now (Would have been in the high 230's in his first career but that's not possible anymore) then Wilder has no chance in the rematch.

    But unfortunately the fight won't happen anyways. We all know Wilder and his team are going to run away with the belt they should have lost. And then they are going to come out with the 'Fury's team wanted unreasonable terms' or 'Fury didn't really want it'. Give me a break Deontay, give me a break. YOU ARE FOOLING NOBODY.

    If Fury thought he got jobbed in LA, he hasn't seen anything yet. Wilder probably doesn't even need KD's to keep his belt over there.
