Warren wins Fury v Whyte purse bid

Whyte due over £6m as part of deal. By far and away his biggest payday.

 

£25 is the minimum. This will be billed as the greatest British clash of the last few decades and be priced accordingly. £30 I’m going for.

 

Warren winning the purse bid... i'm sorry to be that guy but the skeptic in me doesn't think the fight goes ahead

 

Brick top has those east end links. Earn will be absolutely seething

 

This is great for boxing, when was the last time Frank staged a fight of this magnitude.
Unreal.
Is it a game changer ?

 

To me this adds more weirdness to the situation and I still doubt it's over, unless of course someone in the middle east is putting up the money and doesn't care about taking a loss.

 

It is yeah. Frank is back in the big time, Eddie gets a much needed rocket up his arse, sky are sat on the sideline scratching their plums and Probellum are doing whatever they please.

 

Very strange as he refused 5m originally but had matchroom won the purse he would have got less! Clearly wanted step aside.

The build up to this is going to be hilarious.

Frank only needs to find 30% and will factor the rest from backers at 6% for the principle & even percentage of the profits. Fighters get paid after the event, plus the undercard needs to be paid etc I expect little to no matchroom fighters on the card. Top Rank and Queensbury are going to go all out for this. One last hurrah…

£27.99 for the PPV probably… Great fight though looking forward to this…

 

Guys, I'm usually all over the broadcast and PPV price stuff, but surely some of you are bit, you know, excited about this?

An all British heavyweight title clash seemingly about to take place in Britain?

Can't wait. Roll on April / May or whenever it is going to be.

 

Big deal considering Warren has been on the ropes recently with his shows being poor

 

DAZN are attempting to change the business model for boxing. I read this as Arum/Warren trying to snuff that out and I also think Tyson's $80m deal with ESPN explicitly included his participation in this. Ever since that deal was signed Hearn has spent half his life running around the world negotiating fights that don't happen.

 

Happy as they come. I had a feeling we wouldn’t see this fight. A great domestic dust up. I reckon it could turn into a cracker as well. Just hope Frank will put a banging undercard on as well. I think he will.
