    I have to say this is very frustrating. We are essentially seeing AJ vs Miller because it looked like Wilder and Fury were not available and now it turns out BOTH are available.

    Thoughts?

    Fury clearly had no intention of taking an immediate rematch. Wilder probably hurt him quite badly to be fair.

    Once Arum got involved this gave him
    the network protection that he needed.

    I just hope Tyson doesnt go back to producing one of his 12 round stinkers against a mediocre fighter like Charr or Jennings in the next fight as that will kill things off.

    Gash, quite disappointed in Fury for not taking the fight after claiming not to be about the £££s.

    WBC president has also confirmed this...

    Disgraceful. A rematch has been mandated, why would you not take your chance to become world champion? You’ve seen how long Whyte has been waiting for this chance.

    People need to call it how it is...

    Haha.

    So a nice payday for Fury with an easy fight next and probably similar for Deontay. Then MAYBE they'll rematch.

    Whyte is the WBC mandatory so maybe he's next, stadium fight over here perhaps ??

    Breazeale is mandatory. Leaves Whyte in further limbo.

    Whyte Ortiz anyone?

    A few years ago I'd never thought I'd be saying that it's only Deontay Wilder who actually wants to fight the big names

    Whyte is ranked higher than Breazeale in the WBC's OWN RANKINGS, yet somehow Breazealeis mandatory. What a joke.

    If he thought he beat him fair and square why not do it all over again? He knows he’s got the beating of him or is Fury wary of the power he felt in that 12th round OR is Fury actually all about the money after all. There’s no way Fury comes out of this situation looking good IMO.

    Good on Tyson. He clearly won the first fight anyway, he was completely robbed.
