    because Frank Warren insists that Fury will only take 50/50 and not the 60/40 that the purse bid split will be. And we all know Frank Warren doesn’t lie like other promoters.

    Or Warren should stop being his usual bitter self and accept the 60/40 from Hearn from the biggest fight in Britain. I know Tyson would absolutely love having his country stand still for such a mega fight but Warren doesn’t want to upset his American friends. He should be upset already with being offered 60/40 for a fight with Wilder, he should be getting more than Wilder.

    The hypocrisy of Wilder, wants 50//50 v Joshua, totally unrealistic yet offers Fury only 60/40 when it's very arguable who the 'A' side is! For me Fury is the 'A' side anyway. When I say Wilder, I am implicating his promoters also!

    The funny thing to do would be for Hearn to put a big bid in for the fight and the put it on Sky. We'd then see the 50m offer warriors back-pedalling in hilarious fashion.

    A "must" fight! However, AJ has the belts, so If Fury wants them he needs to "go get them". As simple as that. Then he/Warren can dictate terms.

    If the fury wilder fight isn't next then the belt may vacant as it's been ordered by the wbc

    They were Fury’s belts first and nobody ever beat him to get the belts.

    Yes, cuz he knew he lost that first fight and lost a few brain cells from getting put down so hard twice.

    The 60-40 split is only in the event there is a purse bid. There won't be. They agreed to fight twice before they stepped in the ring the first time.

    Frank Warren is the one who petitioned the WBC for the rematch. He only did that so the WBC would be on board for the immediate return bout. That's all they were looking for.

    They'll fight again in April, May or June. That was the plan all along.

    You know well Fury lost the belts for a good reason. Even he did not dispute it, so let's not go there. My point is simple - AJ has them and you need to beat him to get them. So you either agree terms with him or become mandatory, force and win purse bids (like Povetkin did against Wlad iirc).

    The rematch will happen next. Fury is going to take the last belt of that yank and bring it back home where it belongs..its great to see the UK running the heavyweight scene right now.
    Then bring on Fury vs Joshua by the end of the year.....WAR!!!

    Or just offer the deal Fury asked for which he has done. Warren wants 50/50 but Tyson Fury doesn't want a split deal. The fact that Fury is taking to Eddie Hearn outside Warren tells you everything.
