    No but old fish eyes has done not too bad for him, has he?

    Two fights back to back with the Bronze Bomber, with the rematch in particular about to do tremendous business...and more importantly, a fight the fans are hyped to see!

    After the first two fights you’d have thought no he doesn’t (although Fury was paid ridiculously high for them both!). But now appears he hasn’t done to bad by him. Just like Joshua with Hearn. If it’s not broke don’t fix it. Both promoters doing good jobs with their fighters.

    Yeah I just don't think the wilder fight had nothng much to do with Warren and he adds nothing to the "promotion"

    No, he can just promote himself on instagram and open an ebay shop for tickets.

    Simple.

    Warren has served Fury exceptionally well. Got him the Wlad fight, and has helped promote him well enough to get 2 Wilder fights and become more relevant/respected than he was post Wlad.
    Unsure if Fury has the knowledge or dedication to go solo.

    Warren probably presents a bigger obstacle for Fury than a benefit.

    Well in the Uk he now has Sky and ITV with other box office options so in short...

    No he does not need Frank Warren and BT Sport

    He brings experience, contacts, dates and coverage with BT Sport and the knowledge that he has no other fighter whose interest he would put above Fury. He's stuck with Fury when he looked terrible, if Fury has anything about him he won't jump ship now he's on the up again.

    Fury historically struggled to get support from the big media companies, Mick described many doors being shut in the early years, I suppose it must have been his white privilege in the land of his ancestors thwarting him. Anyway, Warren gave him BT Sport I guess, when at the time Hearn/Sky wouldn't have given him the same priority.

    Wasn't this more a Hennessy thing rather than a Fury thing?

    Tyson's debut was on primetime terrestrial TV on the Froch Pascal undercard. By the time Carl was defending his title against Taylor Hennessy couldn't even get the fight on any channel.

    Also, Sky had Fury Klitschko on Box Office so he's definitely been given good publicity by them.
