    Some good news which has emerged from this sorry tale. After some doubts were expressed about how attractive the third fight would be given the fears around Coronavirus and Wilder's capacity to box, there's been work behind the scenes to make the expensive fight tickets more attractive to consumers.

    Word from the promoters suggests for the third fight each person attending at MGM Grand is going to receive their own personal, signed, and wholly unique excuse from Deontay Wilder. :)

    Each comes in a leather embossed presentation case, along with diagrams, pictures and a running commentary from one of a dozen certified YouTube lunatics which will link each individual excuse to a wider conspiracy against the rightful King of Bomb Nation.

    Fightgoers will be able to share their personal excuse online and a special app which will soon be released on iTunes and Android Play store will allow them to find other people at the arena who have similar excuses and thus unlock further bonus awards. If 10 customers with excuses based around biased refereeing for instance present themselves at a concession stand, they will be entitled to free nachos and an appearance on the Real Housewives of Alabama.

    With a capacity of over 14,000 Bob Arum and Frank Warren both expressed concern that there may be some duplication in the excuse packs, but Wilder's management reached out and assured them that they had sufficient excuses to cover the proposed fight in the new Raiders stadium with a capacity of 70,000, so there were no problems satisfying demand. Indeed, some of those leftover excuses will likely be finding their way to lucky purchasers of the Fury v Wilder 3 PPV.

    Deontay Wilder has come in for some criticism following the fight in Vegas but this initiative is a sign that he and his team are thinking outside the box and going the extra mile to deliver value to fight fans. If anyone from here is going and they can lay their hands on an extra excuse pack, please let me know and be sure to post your personalised Wilder excuse here too. :ARMS1:No excuses!

    Possible excuses for third fight loss:

    1. My balls got snared in my jock in round 2
    2. Reading English For Dummies all week confused my game plan
    3. Fury farted in round 2 and it made me realize he’s not such a bad guy after all
    4. I had a hemorrhoid all camp and it was throwing off my alignment
    5. I liked when he licked my neck in the first fight and I was to focused on waiting for the next lick
    6. My socks were too tight and my feet fell asleep
    7. I kept waiting for my little piggy to come back from the market but he never made it back in time for the fight.
    8. Somebody said in between rounds my pool was on fire
    9. My dog ate the game plan
    10. I’ve had coronavirus all camp

    I don't think I've ever read a more pathetic thread.

    I hear Fury doesn't take a shower or bath for weeks before a fight to break his opponents down with Sasquatch type oders that would make a skunk run for cover!

    Too good. I can't be the only one who pictured that glove lunatic in my head when I read this.

    He's knocking the media out of the park now. Another assured performance with Mrs Fury equally impressive.

    I've always really liked Paris. He's got himself a good woman there.
