    What if all the stuff about it not even reaching break even is just a massive tax fiddle.

    Arum playing 3D chess with US treasury... :dancer2:

    Bizarrely, it's both a huge success and a bit of a damp squib all in one!

    In the black corner we have a record gate for a hw fight, up to 850k PPV, the most popular PPV since Mayw v mcgregor and not least a fantastic fight itself which captured attention seemingly worldwide. Plus a strong reported showing for bt sport in the uk.

    In the red (ink) corner there's the very high break even figure that Arum and others suggesting they've barely broken even. That's largely due to the massive guarantees each fighter negotiated, which appear to be a big overpayment given what the first fight delivered.

    From outside, they've overestimated their capacity to convert social media interest into 80 dollar buys. There's an argument for changing this pricing model completely and going for far larger numbers paying a much smaller fee. Could be one of those occasions when dropping your price increases your revenue.

    Will Arum or Warren take any of the fighters cut? Or does Fury just have to pay MTK?
