What's the bigger fight? Fury-Wilder 3 or Joshua-Usyk

Pity these weren't both negotiated earlier this year ready to take place now.

Personally, I'm fed up with all the discussions about revenue. It's like if soccer/football revolved around transfer season with only odd games a few times a year.

 

Numbers will do better in Wilder-Fury 3

 

AJ vs Usyk will do the much better PPV numbers easily.

AJ is biggest PPV star in the sport and Usyk reportedly did good figures in the Bellew and Chisora fights.

AJ has the most belt and best resume in the division whilst Usyk has best ever CW resume.

Wilder vs Fury 3 "The battle of the bottle jobs". The winner won't be allowed or want to fight any of the top fighters after their fight so what's the point?

 

Joshua-Usyk for serious fight fans.
Not much to change with Wilder-Fury III

 

I don`t know, AJ`s a bigger PPV success than Fury and Wilder and Usyk v AJ is a closer fight, Wilder`s stock fell through the floor after the pasting he got by Fury, I will pay for Usyk v AJ but not Fury v Wilder 3, would have been great as a double header.

 

Hearn said Canelo is a bigger star than AJ and that AJ is the second biggest star in boxing, plus Canelo is rated far higher than AJ P4P.

 

I can't see Fury/Wilder 3 doing as well as the last fight as this time it's pretty much a foregone conclusion with no drama from the previous fight to sell it to the fans. Will US fans shell out cash to watch a US heavyweight lose. I suspect not.

Chisora/Usyk alone did more than 1 mill buys if reports are to be believed so we can expect Joshua/Usyk to north of that number. I think UK fans have seen enough of Usyk fight against Bellew and Chisora to build some genuine interest and for the fight to sell well and if some rich Saudi stumps up the cash again for this fight we can expect it to be another lucrative payday for both men.

I'd say Joshua/Usyk is more certain to be a financial success.

 

Wilder-Fury 3 will do worse numbers than the previous 2 fights. No-one cares about this fight. It shouldn't be happening.

Who in the US other than the LDBC crew will be watching it, let alone paying for it?

FOX will hype this up and we will have their commentators telling us Wilder only needs to make some minor adjustments, when they know deep down that simply isn't true.

The only reason this fight is happening is because Tyson got robbed in the first fight. That's the only way they can justify it.

 

I won't be surprised if Fury-Wilder 3 is as big or bigger than their last fight.
The bad blood between them has increased, Wilder's insane accusations will help sell this.
Expect some carnage in the build up.
Wilder's absolutely demented, a thoroughbred dimwit and off his trolley now.
Fury is pissed off and knows how to wind it up and get people talking.

And people have been starved of HW title fights for a while now.
I have a feeling it will do good business.

 

Joshua vs Usyk is for more belts really, and also Fury vs Wilder has already happened twice and is 9/10 likely to be another ass whooping for Wilder.

 

Greedy Eddie will promote AJ-Usyk better

 

Did Del Boy Usyk really do that many buys???

Thats impressive if true

 

If he can do 600K buys against Pulev he can probably get close to 1m against Usyk, considering Usyk has headlined two PPV's before
Twice as big as fury v wilder 3
