    Will networks let their fighters fight on another channels though. It’s a joke.

    In Wilders case I don't believe he has a contract with Showtime but i suppose it depends on individual contracts. I would expect most fighters have option to fight on other networks if fights go to purse bids and they lose the bid.

    With Fury getting £16m of ESPN per fight, with other worldwide rights and all other revenues I would reckon him v Wilder could gross them £40-50m combined. If Fury and AJ fought i reckon they could now gross around £60m between them.

    He did yeah and always has been but “loyal to showtime” that was one of his obstacles in AJ negotiations because of DAZN

    It's a mandatory. Will go to purse bids and ESPN will win

    I dont think it will. I dont think either fighter is in a rush for the fight to happen next.

    Wilder will fight Breazeale.

    Ortiz is too old - the care home won;t let him out this time.
    Stiverne will be retired by Joyce.

    Wilder doesn't fancy Whyte or Povetkin or Parker .

    Not much left unless he fancys the other Fury - Shades of Ali.
