    Purse bids it is then as Warren keeps telling us that Fury is a 50/50 opponent.

    Do governing bodies usually order non mandatory fights?

    In fact, they ordered this rematch as far back as in December... Maybe now they specified the purse bid? I'm not sure...

    The WBC ordered Gvozdyk vs. Stevenson fight in a similar manner, for example.

    In other words...Mr Moneygrabber Al Haymon is scared of the offer from Eddie to wrestle the Fury fight away from his grasp and has therefore ordered Sulaiman to order Wilder-Fury II. It's so hilarious that they pick this specific time when Warren and Hearn said there was offers for Joshua-Fury. They make it so darn obvious. Why didn't they just order this in the first place?

    Fury needs to start listening to Davison who has said he does not like a U.S rematch. Fury really isn't the brightest guy as he seems to be . He needs to make a Joshua deal and walk away from clown Wilder, and the WBC .

    What if Fast Eddie outbids both parties?

    What about Breazeale? I know they sanctioned it a couple of weeks after the 1st one but i didnt think they would order it. Big Dom isnt going to be happy about this. The WBC want their big cut and that big cut wont be there if he fought Breazeale i suppose. They putting pressure on Fury who isnt committing right now i hope Fury tells them to **** off.

    It wasn’t ordered in December, they said they would sanction the rematch.

    Lol that would be funny, he wins the bid makes them fight in UK Wembley in April. That's one way he could use up that date and still have Joshua fight Miller in the US as he seems more likely to do.

    This is Fury's chance to have the fight in Greater Britain, instead of corrupt Vegas.
    If he wins the bid and makes it 12 rounds, he's home free

    Thats very true but i just presumed Frank Warren wouldnt be willing to try compete with Al Haymon at bidding time. But then Al Haymon has never been willing to throw much money behind Wilder. If Warren went for it and got it id say go for it, But i can just see Fury not being prepared to be squeezed by the WBC and refusing them the fight they want.

    Why would frank warren bid for the fight? Any fury fight is 50/50 isn’t it? His words.

    So if Warren accepts 60/40 to fight wilder he is setting himself to look real silly when he says they won't fight AJ unless it's 50/50.

    He’s got some decent revenue streams to back him. Sky and Dazn plus a date at Wembley booked. It would be hilarious if he did it. Wouldn’t put it past fast Eddie. To make the numbers work it would also mean Haymon and Showtime would have to purse bid the equivalent of 800k plus buys and give it as a guarantee. Could also build the Joshua fight in the US with no competition and get two massive fights on DAZN back to back.

    Wow that thought process.. You would be an absolutely savage promoter/businessman :scared1

    Imagine Hearn stealing this fight and sticking it on Sky Sports Box Office :risas3:
