    Obviously this cherry-pick has gone wrong Fury, and I'm very sure he is giving hell to his manager at the moment.

    "Lineal champion" bullcr*p was the only claim Fury had and he was protecting it by carefully picking bums.

    Fury probably will select his opponents at Sefer Seferi level from now on. The minimum age limit will be 40.

    Doesn't Sefer have a boxing brother? I can see him next up to restore family pride.

    He come pretty close to being Andy Ruiz jr'd tonight, if Wallin was 10% better than he is Fury would have been stopped.

    Its gonna be true bums like Schwartz all the way from now on

    I can see Fury going for cash out now like Haye dis against Bellew after fighting a couple of bums.

    I don't think Fury likes southpaws. He couldn't deal with it well at all today. Also looked rather flat footed and stiff compared to his usual self. Don't think he trained as hard as he claimed.

    That ESPN+ money.
    But Fury supposedly has a 100mil deal with ESPN. With that money Top Rank could have made some major moves, yet somehow Fury got it all.

    Their plan was to lose money on Fury with these two stay busy fights, and then to more than compensate that with the Fury vs. Wilder PPV.

    That plan almost gone out of the window tonight. :smile: In fact, it was partially upset by the cut and by the less than stellar performance.

    Still don't know how the numbers make sense.

    Fury is on 20m a fight.

    So he will get 20m in the Wilder fight and Wilder will get 20m. Does the fight generate 70-80 in total to break even?

    A PPV fight generates roughly a price of the PPV (~$75 in the US) multiplied by the number of buys plus the gate plus additional incomes (TV for another countries, etc.)

    I see a rematch with Tom Schwartz in Fury's future.
