FURY AJ IS STILL IN NEGOTIATIONS! - FURY STATEMENT

Well researched. The Turkish fighter Is a hero then.

 

It seems like the whole Heavyweight division is on a go slow,ok I can understand the top fighters protecting there PPV numbers and so don’t need to fight as often due to the extra revenue but only one fighter in the top 25 fighting three times a year since 2020.

 

All the threads and pages on this fight being made and numerous twitter posts, you tube vids
This fight hasn’t had any official promotion
Yet all talk is good for the fight, any mention is promotion one way or another

 

In other words, he's just one more guy with a hole in his ass and an opinion I have no particular reason to listen to, not even a boxing man.


I'm not telling you that the deal should be done tomorrow, and I doubt that Fury's ultimatums have been intended as anything but pressure tactics (knowing full well that Hearn/Joshua have form for stalling out negotiations). How long do they realistically need, though? Should this drag out until three weeks from December 3?

Let's be realistic, BT would love to do this fight — even in a shared capacity, it's a big boon for them. If there is an issue concerning broadcasting, it will lie with the platform who already missed out on the Joshua-Usyk rematch, after believing they had acquired sole rights to Joshua's bouts, and who are now facing the prospect of playing second fiddle in a split-broadcast of a fight from which their asset will be widely expected to emerge with a third successive defeat before having thrown so much as a single exclusive punch for them, and Hearn will have known this weeks ago when he was busy telling media that his end had "accepted the offer in writing" and broadcasting was unlikely to be an issue.


But keep making allowances for one party while maintaining the risible pretence that you're not in any way jaundiced.

 

Oh, excuse me. The Usyk-Joshua rematch.

 

The dotted line says - AJ does not want a 3rd consecutive loss

 

Did anyone say that it needs to be drag out, until 3 weeks?
And have you actually think that DAZN wouldn't have sing with AJ if they didn't believe him???
Eh it's a third loss in your mind, but in their maybe seen as a big win, big money, AJ on top again, huge money flow, but yeah keep talking about who see just one part.

If Fury team was in a hurry his promoter would have place a deadline from the get going, as a Professional would do. And not some clown that just talk big, and in the end will fight Charr.

Yeah common sense, bud. Why Queensburry have not make a deadline from the beginning, and/or put it in the contract???
And yeah i prefer to trust experts on this one, and on my experience. Big fights aren't made in a week, and surely not made on instagram.
No reason to stretch this. Anyone can check the media and people are finally seeing through the s****. We will talk if the fight gets made. Good luck till then.

 

What utter tosh, the reason Fury has back tracked YET AGAIN is pressure from Warren and Arum. They are very aware where the process is. Yet Fury as Fury does, gobs off and threatens to call stuff off and gives deadlines. The fact is AJ with another loss will not generate anywhere near the MONEY Fury wants/needs to go off into retirement a 3rd time. Both fighters have enough money now to see themselves off into old age but this possible bumper to their riches is too good to miss and both Warren and Hearn know it

 

Exactly. It's the obvious contradiction.

Fury calls out Joshua, Joshua informally accepts. Fury, wants a quicker turn around than Joshua is comfortable with, but they agree on Dec 3.

Why doesn't Fury just get his head down and train on the premise he is fighting Joshua? It sounds like he is fighting December 3 come hell or high water, anyway, so...get in training! I mean, I might have sympathy if the alternate opponent was say, Joe Joyce, but he's lined up Charr, ffs

Like seriously, the contract negotiations could drag on until mid-November and Fury should still have ample time to adjust his game plan to Charr.

And notice, it's not the networks and promoters who are trying to pull the plug - you know, the people who actually have to organise the logistics of an event...

It's Fury.
The tail is trying to wag the dog.

 

And have you actually think whether this sentence helps form an intelligible opening to your post? It's no crime if your English isn't as fluent as your first language, but you might take a breath and sacrifice some of that furious haste for the sake of coherence.

Of course DAZN believed they had nailed exclusive rights to Joshua when they entered a deal with him several months ago. That was June. We're now knocking on October's door. In the past four months, DAZN suffered the indignity of missing out on the Joshua-Usyk rematch, after believing they had acquired sole rights to Joshua's bouts, and are now facing the prospect of playing second fiddle in a split-broadcast of a fight from which their asset will be widely expected to emerge with a third successive defeat before having thrown so much as a single exclusive punch for them. If you believe that I represent a minority of observers in expecting that Fury would hand Joshua his third defeat in succession, you are utterly delusional. The vast majority of observers would expect it. And DAZN understand that probability favors such an outcome. Likewise, if you are arguing that BT do not have much less objective cause to feel concern and trepidation about this split-broadcast bout coming to fruition, you're pulling the wool over your own eyes.

Nowhere did I recommend an absolute deadline. I said that Fury's ultimatums are obvious theater/pressure tactics and that only a casual follower of the sport (or some predisposed zealot with a deep need, like yourself) would take them at face value. Negotiations do have a practical expiry date, however. This deal hasn't been in discussion for a week, it's been in discussion almost four weeks. You may deny as much, but your posts essentially espouse the conceit that Hearn and co. should be granted liberty to string this process out until a December bout is no longer feasible and then bear no accountability when a widely sought-after event does not materialize.

You've quite superfluously arranged to walk yourself off the forum in that event. You'll need that luck more than I will.

If you're too lacking in discernment to realise that Fury is a law unto himself by now, or else just desperate to characterize him as avoidant of a carefully manufactured product of Matchroom HQ whose false image of eminence has long since been shattered, you might just believe that.

 

Top names fighting less than three times a year is hardly the hamartia of the heavyweight division. It's a boxing-wide phenomenon.

 

The thing is you wouldn't even mind Fury fighting somebody like Charr if there were fights every 3 or 4 months but when it's 1 fight every 10 months it feels like such a waste.
