    That’s quite a wedge for any promoter.

    Can only imagine this fight is going to the Middle East or USA.

    This would have to do 1.6mil UK PPV buys just to break even ?

    Glad the fight is sort of set in stone now. There’s no hiding, no bottling, it’s on. Even if you don’t like the split Whyte you can’t ***** out now and same goes for Fury, there’s no hiding place anymore.

    Cardiff would get a massive gate wouldn't it?

    So the Break Even point comes down quite a bit

    Fury has just posted on Instagram story heavily hinting it’s happening in the UK. Great news if so.

    Whyte getting $8m so if he pulls out it confirms he’s an absolute fraud.

    Edit: for above. I’ve just realised PPV’s of this ilk are no longer £19.95 and this will easily be £29.95 or north of so maybe the buys could go down to 1.1/1.2 to break even, they’d expect to beat that no doubt plus gate revenue so it’s not so far fetched to have it in the UK I suppose.

    Top Rank would be paying Fury 20m or more for fight so that will be in the pot. BT Sports might have put up a rights fee as massive for their ppv reputation. Plus if at Cardiff, will take about £10m on gate. Plus PPV sales.

    Whyte is apparently taking the WBC to court to get the fight cancelled.
