    Is it simply because they want the money an audience generates? Are we going to have to wait for Covid to be over to see this fight?

    One of the most unwanted rubber matches in years, why do we need to say that again? just hurry up and spark superior Joshua already

    It's probable Fury would win a third fight but if Wilder wants it Fury has no choice. Anyone know what the hold up(s) for this fight is?

    Has to be a lack of a gate?

    Either Deontay wants to stall Fury into hopeful rustiness or they're holding out on the news of crowds being permitted or not.

    This is the best explanation. Not enough money in the fight for it to go ahead without the gate.

    What's interesting is what happens if fury offers wilder the fight at reduced fee but he turns it down to wait till the crowds return. Can he keep fury waiting indefinitely? One for the lawyers maybe.

    We don't need a trilogy. I'm sure Bob Arum would disagree.

    They dont want to do it without a crowd for some reason. But by the looks of it, it's going to be a long ass time until a crowd is permitted.

    Obviously it´s the live gate.
    But it´s been over 2 years of this rivalry BS... I wish they were just done with it.

    Greed, of course.
    Wilder himself might be in this for something other than money but his handlers aren’t and neither is Fury.

    For all anyone knows, this could be the proper end of Wilders one trick saga.
