    They messaged me asking how much they would be able to shift them for! I told them they’d have to pay people to take them.

    Tommy fury looked the spitting image of clev with that bandana on...was just waiting for bass hunter to come on and molly mae to pull a glow stick from her minge.

    I don’t mind Fury.... but Ben Davidson annoys me for some reason, he reeks of a big ego

    I dont understand these fights with Wallin and schwartz.

    Wouldnt it make more sense to take Fury on tour round america knocking out hometown bums?

    Why not a schedule like this

    Fight 1 vs Cris Areolla in LA

    Fight 2 vs Bryant Jennings in Philly

    Fight 3 vs Gerald Washington in San Jose

    I would think if you are trying to build a following in the US a schedule like that would do you more good than 3 fights in vegas against obscure europeans, which mostly tourists are going to go to.

    It's a circus act from fury but as long as wilder 2 happens and he wins then all will be forgiven and everyone will admit fighting all these bums was the right thing to do.

    Not sure even if he beats Wilder fighting non-stop bums will be proven the right thing to do. Whilst every fight can't be a super fight you are ultimately judged by your career as a whole. Lennox Lewis is a great not just because he beat Tyson and Holyfield, but also because he pretty much cleaned up the division as a whole. Briggs, Grant, Tua, Rahman, Bruno, Klitschko and Golota for example. Their modern equivalents just seem like the sort of fighters Fury literally never fights.

    I’m not so sure. Even if he beats wilder his career is going to look like a waste of talent.

    He was offered an immediate rematch, turned it down. He could have took it instead of Schwarz and let’s say he won then it’s the rematch again for the Wilder trilogy. December he could get a mandatory (Whyte) out the way instead of another bum and then on to next year we’re talking unifications with Joshua/Ruiz.

    What a legacy that would be.

    For sure he still has work to do to cement his legacy, beat wilder and he still needs to beat another 2-3 too guys like AJ, Whyte etc.

    Nothing wrong with him fighting wallin and schwarz it's just that he should have done this before the first wilder fight. He took that fight too early but once he took it then it's made him look daft going down a level.

    But he can redeem himself yet.

    This is not the case. They are not 'complimentary' tickets, if you stay at an MGM resort it's incorporated into your hotel package price. They would have been offered sport, musical or magic. The event is sponsored by MGM resorts.

    At 3.30

    Arum says “don’t make up ****”
    When the interviewer points out that Wallin hurt Fury in the 12th.

    Fury was clearly badly hurt in that 12th

    A really bad night for Fury

    Arum is so out of touch these days it’s laughable. Would not surprise me to see him lose his ESPN deal at some point with the fights he’s putting on.

    The fight should have been stopped in the third. Fury was constantly adjusting his feet to keep Wallin on his good eye. He only had 50% vision for 9 rounds.

    I think people didn’t believe me about me mates getting offered free tickets as soon as they were checking.

    they gave more away then they sold! And still only filled just over a third of the t mobile.
