    Bakole vs Ajagba I think works for Saudis looking for a global profile.

    Zhang - Kaybel, Parker - Ruiz tick demographic boxes.

    Joyce - Whyte kind of makes sense

    I don't think they'd like the idea of Usyk - Fury rematch a long time down the line holding all belts.
    The main event this time was Joshua - Wallin which seemed to get sparce coverage by mainstream media.


    Hrgović - Joshua for a belt headlining gives them value for money profile building wise.

    I don't understand why you put Fury in "The Day of Reckoning" when he wasn't boxing.
    If you emphasized how badly Fury boxed against Ngannou - I would understand that.
    This is how I think they are Fury's antifan, Fury hater, etc.
    P.S. not defending Fury just trying to be objective.

    I think because Wilder and Wallin have been used to prop up Fury’s legacy and make him seem untouchable. This is what happens in the sport, a guy gives someone’s favourite fighter a tough fight, they have to use them as proof of how good that fighter is. When they lose badly, it can reflect badly on them. The ease with which Joshua went through Wallin defeated many of the narratives being pushed of Otto being a major threat to the division.

    Fury got knocked down 4 x against someone that most now class as a bum and Wilder is somewhat who Fury made his name off, or at least the reason he now finds himself fighting for 50+ million a fight.
