He raises a good point; if you consider Tyson still undefeated on the basis that you disagree with the Wilder result you can't keep that logic...
I answered that by saying that pay packet would come with the proviso that Wilder ends up fighting Joshua which obviously does massive business....
Arum came out and said the financial figures were 'bulls*it.' Why would a network pay a guy as unpopular as Fury that sort of money?
TV revenue surely depends on people watching his fights though? And nobody is interested in Fury flapping around and sticking his tongue out...
That's fair enough, but if part of the discussion is about Fury is how entertaining he is, the Pianeta fight probably isn't a great example of it....
You were positively tumescent about Fury in the aftermath of the Wilder fight; dribbling all over yourself with the Ali and Mayweather...
Were any of them top ten guys? I just had a look at the Ring annual ratings for when Fury fought them. The answer in their opinion was no.
In fairness Joe had a dreadful career by comparison. Yes he was unbeaten but how many wasted years can a professional boxer have?
He was booed out of the ring after the Pianeta fight. It was absolutely dreadful. Yes, he'd been out for a while and so on, but he's never been in...

This is a big issue. He's basically marketed on the basis of his character. Inside the ring he's adapted from a fairly crude giant who tended to...
How many people post on here? In this section? On a regular basis? Thirty perhaps? You have to question the mentality of people who think Eddie...

The Truax fights were both very weird. Terrible opponent, terrible fight, rematch which felt like a fight in a school gym, won the title back,...
Guess it's just the way their respective careers panned out but I always thought it was a shame we never saw a Groves DeGale rematch. Whilst the...
