    Even by Covid times, this seems to be pushing it late.

    Yes, but who he's fighting hasn't been confirmed though.

    The financial side of boxing could be at work here. Someone rated even below Kaybel might take the fight for less. I think this is a tough fight to sell, even for the rabid UK fans.

    Kaybel is also a VADA tester, and that could be a sticky point for Fury who has had a positive test, and an odd deal with Wilder that both guys will test, but your not allowed to tall about the results.

    Either way Fury's offering a big pay day. Someone will sign to the terms he's offering.

    It was all over the board and a discussed topic when Fury vs Wilder 2 was upon us. No, I do not have a link, but I do recall it was in their contract that neither side could talk about it. I'm not saying anyone was dirty for this fight just the odd part where neither side can talk about it.

    They are supposed to announce tomorrow, which might be today int he UK by the time you see this:

    “They’re supposed to announce that I think (on Wednesday),” Arum said. “Frank is promoting that fight and he’ll announce when he wants to announce. They kept us informed because ESPN is going to televise the fight in the United States, or ESPN+.”

    The prophecy is almost complete.
