    Yea it's crap, nobody can say otherwise. But as a big Fury fan, I'm content that he's staying in shape and staying sharp with Wilder up next. Arum obviously wants the Vegas highlight reel clips and KO for promoting Fury/Wilder 2. He got nice ones v Schwartz and he'll get more here. It is what it is.

    Quick question; is it on BT box office? Mental if so. Wonder what numbers the Schwartz fight done. Can't have done much.

    Hasn’t actually been announced yet. So to be fair the PPV shouts are just utter speculation at the minute.

    Fury will end up a laughing stock if he carries on like this, he is really resting off his laurels. If for some reason the wilder fight doesn’t happen it will look even worse. Disappointing, wake me up when he does something interesting.

    If the Wilder fight doesn't happen, I'm sure they will get a good opponent instead. Arum knows exactly what he is doing.

    I'm starting to think the 2nd Wilder fight is something of a mythical carrot being dangled in front of everyone's noses at this point tbqh.

    Plenty more milking to do yet. Get on them teats boys.

    I give Fury credit. I thought I knew boxing but this is the 2nd boxer in a row that I couldn't pick out of a lineup. Never heard of this guy before so I'm sure he is shite. Unbeaten though, pretty much a Warren special

    I guess they will have no choice, unless fury is content with this farce. He has accused others for taking on soft touches, him doing the same is going to lose him a lot of respect. It’s great if the wilder fight happens but where these guys are concerned anything is possible, they have made careers avoiding each other. It doesn’t inspire confidence it has taken this long for them to talk seriously about the rematch, and it’s still not even in the bag....

    Amazed at this.
    It's the main boxing weekend in the US calendar, particularly in Vegas so will get good exposure but was expecting much better opponent.

    I can see another fight lined up in December as well.

    The Wilder performance rightly gives Fury plenty of credit and the time to get himself in the best of shape.

    Should the Wilder rematch go South then there will be a backlash from the public.

    The man does somehow possess the skills to go from Puddings straight to the cream looking like a World Champion.

    It's sad but in an Era where the "0" is everything it's easy to see why fury has done this.

    With big fights coming why risk an AJ RUIZ?

    AJ didn't even get any credit for fighting ruiz who was branded a fatso.

    So fair enough fury just don't expect me to pay ppv

    No surprise, he told everyone what he was going to do: bum of the month.

    Never heard of the guy, don't give a ****. This is throwback stuff, fight pushovers to tick over then have an occasional big one.

    But I'm predicting this: Ruiz next big fight won't be AJ it will be Fury, AJ won't fight until December 2020 and it will be a bum of the month for the Fury fight in 2021.

    Wilder will be out of the equation.
