    It's on.

    Fury just ran on the ESPN set and said he just signed.

    Took all of five days - after the arbitrator's ruling late Monday afternoon - to get this signed.

    FIVE days.

    This time Wilder will be walking in that ring wearing a light t-shirt.

    If Wilder then KOs Fury and goes on to fight Joshua it will still be a good unification fight

    Fury vs Wilder is a good fight and so is AJ vs Usyk but they're not the fight we want to see.

    This is a good turn around. 2 months. I was dreading this dragging out.

    Really don't see what Wilder can do to win. I just think it's too late for him to make adjustments and he ain't gonna turn into a Tommy Hearns overnight. I don't think Fury will perform like he did in the second fight but I still expect him to stop Wilder.

    So after a guy being completely outclassed and smashed up for 7 rounds, and only winning maybe 3-4 rounds out of 19. Over 2 fights.

    We get the rematch.

    This is going to be a really tough sell. I am not sure it makes money.

    You have to back Fury to knock Wilder out again this time with Wilder going out on his shield in defeat. Wilder earns respect for how he wanted to go out on his shield in the second fight too.

    But from all we know, the Saudis didn’t bother.

    Hearn kept saying ‘any day now’ for months on the site fee coming through. That’s why the fight never came through.

    You’re acting as if they did build a stadium and did come through with the money. Eddie claimed it was about to happen and never reached the finish line.

    Yet within days of the arbitrator ruling, viola, Fury and Wilder have signed contracts and made a deal. They had their financing and venue lined up properly.

    The Eddie/AJ side would have to be idiots not to think that the arbitrator could rule in Wilder’s favor. That was always a possibility. Whether Arum was optimistic or not, the judge didn’t make his decision until he made it. He doesn’t call each side throughout the process and say ‘well today I’m leaning Wilder’s way’ or ‘now I’m leaning Fury’s way.’ Both sides were probably hopeful but both were also in the dark until a ruling was made.

    What anyone thinks might happen is immaterial — you plan for what can happen. And a ruling in Wilder’s favor was always something that could happen.

    Everyone involved in the Fury-Joshua negotiations operated in bad faith. Wilder activated his rematch clause days after the fight. It was printed and discussed everywhere. They all knew it.

    The plan all along was to try to BREAK the contract Wilder had with Fury. And the arbitrator was only called in when Fury and Arum tried to break the contract.

    Hearn kept saying "Arum thinks they can get out of it."

    That doesn't mean they were free to negotiate. It meant they were trying to get out of a deal they already signed.

    We all knew, after beating Ruiz, Joshua had two mandatories due (Pulev and Usyk) and we all knew, after Fury-Wilder 2, that the loser of that fight could activate a rematch clause. Wilder did.

    Joshua did fight Pulev and Usyk agreed to step aside. And Wilder didn't.

    All we saw in how quickly Wilder-Fury 3 was put together was how it was a done deal, until Hearn jumped in with his "amazing offer" that never panned out.

    Instead of inserting himself in the Wilder-Fury situation, Hearn should've stayed out of it, let them have their fight this spring and they could 've staged the unification later this year.

    I have no idea why Hearn was so insistant on trying to break the Fury-Wilder deal ... when he never actually got the money or a site from the Saudis.

    After six months of saying "any day now," he never got the money. And Wilder-Fury 3 gets made five days later.

    What a complete waste of everyone's time.

    Anyway, it's over now.
