I think rematch clauses are also a safety net incase a fighter loses to a clash of heads etc. Lots of talk of AJ v Fury being in Saudi but a live undercard being held in the UK with the main event beemed back to big screens?!? Not sure this works...
Yeah, money talks! Be great for the UK fans though, getting the chance to see such a huge fight without having to travel out of the country. We'd get to witness history being made. Feel like ol' Frankie Warren over here banging the drum for the fans.
In normal circumstances wouldn't even be up for discussion but the Saudi's are throwing crazy money at it.
He's gone overkill with these frequent ITV appearances. Trying too hard now to become "loved and liked".
Thought he came across quite depressed and down on This Morning. Quite concerned for him after watching that.
He said he takes a couple of weeks to get back to normal after a fight. Paris suggestin getting him there today was an ordeal. He said he knows he has to eat well and train every day so he should be fine. He has this two fight thing in his head as well which I think he is challenging himself with. I think he'll stay focused until the two fights are done with. Who knows after that.
Fury version one would have always schooled big Josh 118-110 type lesson learned. 100 times out of 100. this new Nineteen stone Gypsy TANK Fury combined with the mental midget version of big Josh who ran scared from an obese Mexican in an oversized ring for twelve rounds? Brutal beatdown incoming. fury took wilders best shots and beat him into submission, although wilder has no quit in him. We’ve already seen AJ QUIT against the tubby little Mexican the first time out.
You just know on their way home, he was like "why" didnt you let me ask Phil about him and Gordon the gofa!!!
Wilder will always stand a chance because he hits like a ****ing mule But that said, it'll be interesting to see how he shapes up because Fury dismantled him last time out so the aura of invincibility has gone. Fury will also crucify him in the build up.
Within the last half hour, he's posted on his Instagram story a clip of him in the gym so it's good he's keeping to that routine. Although I doubt this was footage of him today. I would imagine most celebrities who say where they are on social media do so the following day to prevent people going there to meet them.
If Tyson is serious about his love for the sport then the thought of an AJ fight will keep him going as many people will give AJ a very live chance. I do worry about motivation for the third Wilder fight though as not many will be giving Wilder a chance and that’s dangerous.
He needs to be fully motivated for the 3rd fight because despite what was a dominant performance, he got chinned a lot.
