    Would seem so, unless they somehow do some sort of co-promotion thing. Not sure they will though. Seems like a real strange move.

    My guess is Fury was not happy with negotiations and decided to go down the pruse bid route. To make that work he needs an american network and promoter on his side and I think he knows signing with Hearn will not help as he is in the AJ business

    I think that’s it. Be interesting to see if SKY/DAZN and all the others swoop in on the purse bids now and if they do then does Fury/Wilder accept?

    Interesting.

    Minimum of two fights a year in America, headlining on ESPN. Random but lets wait and see. He's been very well received in the states thus far. Must've been offered nice bread.

    Frank seemed to suggest he will be fighting at home next.

    Could be a ridiculous purse bid.

    I wouldn't be surprised to see DAZN bid big for this should it go to purse bids, which surely it will do now?

    I have no objection to Fury’s new deal. Clearly it’s a good financial offer and if the other HWs can have deals in place with other promoters and broadcasters, why can’t Fury?
