Hearn makes fury offer

No matter how you try and pad it out, the Wilder v Fury fight was a bigger seller in terms of revenue. Whyte v Parker did £9.4m, Wilder v Fury did £17.4m in the US alone. I really couldn’t care less to be honest, Whyte is doing brilliantly for himself and i’m not knocking it.

 

Let's be honest, all of this is incredibly boring. I'm not sh*tting on anyone who actually enjoys this stuff or who just wants the fights to be made, like we all do. However, I just don't see a way it gets made. Fury is on BT, the fight will have to be on Sky for all sorts of reasons. To even get to that stage they have to agree the splits which they are completely deadlocked on. The only way I can see a way out is Wilder-Fury to rematch, get a conclusive winner who is WBC and Lineal champ and do something close to 50/50.

 

You know it's easy to sit down on your ikea PC swivel chair and say 'Take the money Dillian, go on... prove you are as good as you say you are... take this hard fight and take what you are given'

Nah bro, business comes first... these fighters don't have pension plans. You make what you earn. And AJ has earned comfortably, its no sweat of his back to give Dillian a few extra per cent to make the fight. He will still earn a lot too.

 

AJ stated in public that money is not his objective so it is certainly not greed until he becomes a billionaire - bloke is in the poorhouse having only earned 100s of millions so far.

 

You must be Inferno

 

UK PPV = $25
US PPV = $75

Decent ticket for Fury-Wilder = $1,000
Decent ticket for Whyte-Parker = $100

 

Inferno... if you are still visiting this forum you are famous mate. Literally all these girls can't keep you out of their mouth.

Whatever you said or did on here... they still remember you!

At the end of the day more.people turned uo for Whyte. And he drew better numbers given it was a non title fight.

And god knows how many in attendance for Fury-Wilder actually paid and weren't gifted a ticket to fill the place up.

And actually a decent ticket for Whyte is 150 GBP... and don't know where your 1000 dollar came from.

 

I actually attended Fury-Wilder and tickets weren't handed out. The box office was still selling tickets at the standard price on the day of the fight.

The fact you're comparing the two events is ridiculous.

 

Is it really ridiculous??

The threads on this forum say otherwise like the one where Wilder Fury struggled to sell tickets even after 6 weeks!!!!!!!

Parker and Whyte almost sold.out in in a few days. I was there booking... and watching the seats go like crazy within hours.

So please educate yourself. I am not making this up.

So you know for a fact that Wilder Fury tickets werent given away for free well in advance of fight night??

They were.

 

Yes man, it's a ridiculous comparison. Unfortunately, it's all about the money and Whyte/Parker only generated a fraction of the money Wilder/Fury did. That's the bottom line.

 

Of course they want to see it. I worded it wrong. But what I’m saying is if you look in the main forum and British forum all the dream fight threads for 2019 you don’t see Wilder v Fury once. You get Joshua v Wilder or Joshua v Fury a shitload though.

 

Fcking casuals man

 

Yeah Fury-Joshua is a loonnggg way off

 

Hmmm.

Surely if you accept that Fury is the lineal champion and that his time away/multiple retirement announcements didn't mean that the lineal title was essentially sat with nobody, then you have to accept that Sefer Seferi had a crack at the lineal title?
