    Schwarze is feather-fisted and terribly boring fighter. Fury will have to make a clown show out of it with lots of show boating, otherwise the crowd will fall asleep.

    I checked the full card out and it only listed three fights in total, if that's correct it's the worst ppv in history.

    It's on ESPN+ (the streaming service). $4.99 a month.

    More than Bum Squad vs *insert whatever useless dosser's name he's fighting*

    Tommy Schwarz has big German balls and a iron-jaw. He's the fighter Duhaupas dreams of being and he'd soak up everything Bum Squad threw at him and then take him into deep waters and drown his ass.

    Nobody knows Shwarz in US. Fury have bad reputation across the globe, so how you can generate good PPV numbers with repuation like that? Fury have little power, he couldn't KO Chisora in first fight, Hammer, Kevin Johnson and Zack Page. I'm waiting for his power all his career but he never show's it. Wilder don't have no granite chin, Romanov ko'd him cold in amateurs but Fury won't ko Wilder in rematch because he doesn't have power to do it.

    They could take out a single ad saying “Tyson fighting in Las Vegas” and sell out. Most Americans would get ESPN+ thinking Iron Mike was back.

    And this is just for one weekend. And you get subscribed for a month. And they also have UFC and some other sports...

    No one in the US cares. Fury is extorting ESPN.

    Was that not $20 for AJ, GGG and Andrade vs Sulecki? Sounds ok to me.

    $4.99 for a month of sport is a good deal in my opinion.

    He stunned wilder in round 12 after nearly being decapitated. Watch it again. Wilder backs away after too.

    One of them ended in an upset making it look better than it did when advertised but basically an A-side vs a designated opponent seems to be the formula.
