    Money wise it's smart, for his legacy not. Fury will knock him out and after watching the Ortiz fight, I am pretty sure it made Wlad's confidence even fall more down. Wlad's time is over. But it wouldn't be smart not to take the rematch. He will make around 20 Millon again.

    No.

    But he has no choice if he is to continue with his career at the same level.

    He will be frozen out of contention by bums like dee ontay for 3 years and he cannot wait that long at his age.

    no he never rematches losses unless his opponent becomes a cripple.

    Yes it's the only path for him if he is to continue. Plus it's a very winnable fight for him. If he grows a set and is willing to throw

    It's still a winnable fight for him though it's all depends on whether Fury prepares as well as he did for the first time.

    Wlad dug his own grave by trying to unify. Once you do that you are facing better fighters. e shoulda stuck with one title, the IBO or something lesser like that like he used to, then he'd still be champ until he was 45.

    He's married to a high maintenance and high cost hollywood actress who is no longer working as far as I know, he needs all the money he can get.

    Where else will he get that kinda money from.

    He must realise he cannot outbox Fury. The style that has served him so well has become his downfall his one dimension relies on him facing a weaker or slower opponent. Fury is neither.

    Wlad cannot out jab him and he cannot tie him up inside.

    He needs to find the young version of himself, the one that was number 1 challenger to Lewis. The one that got bombed out by Sanders, Purity and Brewster. He needs to go for broke and risk it all.
