    Bob saying Ruiz in Vegas or Helenius in Manchester in March.
    Whyte wanted $10 million apparently!

    So he’s fighting Helenius In a bore fest.

    Whyte started at 10m they started at 5m not hard to meet at £7.5m.

    I know Hearn has put it out there that when they go to pursebids he’s going in heavy as it will be the launch of DAZN PPV

    Fury-Ruiz would be a great fight.

    Ruiz is better than Whyte actually. No one could complain too much about Ruiz.

    Helenius is a bum, of course.

    Fury Ruiz would be a much bigger and more appealing fight.

    Whyte starting at 10m is an absolute joke.. It’s a fight he could possible win if he gets an unmotivated Fury plus he has the incentive of no “rematch(room)” clause. Imagine a world where Dillian unifies the belts….

    I'd be shocked if Fury fought Ruiz.

    Bob probably just threw his name in the mix to make it look like Fury is actually looking for a decent opponent

    King Pudding Dullian Shyte dubbed 'greedy' - at last the penny is dropping with promoters.

    Not worth £750k never mind £10m given the fact that the fight is Fury's easiest night's work since Pudding Chisora 2.

    They should offer him whatever the BBC forked out for his Masterchef appearance.

    Whyte wants 10, Fury will probably make 25 thats a 30 /70 split give or take a few percent, seems about right to me .

    How many ppv buys does this do at 25 pound a shot do you think? Plus US ppv plus venue ticket sales, . No reason this fight doesn't get made.

    Do I think whyte deserves 10 million?, probably not but is 25 million a bad night's work for Fury against a limited fighter in whyte definitely not.

    I'm not for one second saying Fury wants to duck whyte but for whatever reason he has always had issues when people mention this fight, if he really didn't rate whyte why doesn't he just agree to the 10 million??

    Would Fury fight ruiz, Wilder, Joyce etc for 25 million? Of course he would..... he made 15 I think for fighting wallin ffs !!

    Rice Pudding Jr definitely isn't better than Whyte, but it would be a good KO victory for Fury and one that would give the Joshua fanboys a bit of work to do.

    What do you think? @NEETzschean

    LOL!

    Fury vs Whyte is not a PPV in the United States. Nobody knows who Dillian Whyte is in the US.

    Fury vs Ruiz Jr is a PPV in the States and the UK. Ruiz Jr deserves a bigger purse than Whyte, he has the backing of Mexico.
