    Tyson Fury has never been a ticket seller.
    Let’s face it for all his good technical skills his fights are boring.
    If he was fighting in your back yard you’d close the curtains.

    Hats off to any of the diehard PPV Mugths that fork out for this complete mismatch at 4.30am.

    Very hard to get the mainstream UK public excited about a super fight in the middle of the night never mind this gash fight.

    I’d class pretty much anything as evidence in some way. It’s just there seems to be none.

    The reason I’d like to know is because Fury making big money is supposedly a mitigating factor behind these appalling fights. Yet Bob Arum himself called initial speculation about the value of the contract ‘bullsh*t,’ whilst none of the figures add up at all. Nobody is buying tickets. Nobody is buying PPV. So why pay him millions?

    I can only think they believe they recoup when the Wilder rematch takes place
    But even that dont add up

    PPV comment.

    Much rather buy poetic dreams of perfect puddings than donate the doshua on a senseless (non) reality

    Just woke up and I'm watching this mofo. It looks like apart from the ringside seats, they have had to black out the arena.

    Anyway, this Pedreza scrap has been quite decent.

    Packed...really?
    They have probably set up for about 8k at the most, but it still doesn’t look rammed to me. Maybe I’m still half asleep and I’m also watching on my ipad.

    For anyone else....look at the panaromic shots during the Naverete introduction. Must be a deep fake?! (LOL)

    Mike Costello and Andy Lee doing a good job on BBC radio. Sounds like a decent fight.
