Fury seems to like fighting in "away" venues. Plus, I am sure I saw that he has said he doesn't want to fight in the UK again - though I am sure that would change for an AJ fight. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How dopey is it to have the biggest fight of your career and not have the basics down such as how heavy your walk out gear would be ? To be fair, lugging 20 kilos around for a few minutes wouldn't have helped him, particularly if you look at how skinny his legs were (clearly misses leg day at the gym) but when your training camp is supposed to be looking at the fine details of how to win and, in Wilder's case, retain an unbeaten record...… to not know how heavy that walk out gear was is the height of stupidity...… the whole thing became more of a show than a fight. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoodyBlue1872 62 Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 I thought he said there would be a 3rd fight and picked the venue he wants it held in, this oculd have been pre-fight though. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excuses I would think. Far too much money for there not to be a 3rd fight I'd imagine yet I'd rather see Fury v Joshua. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far too much money for there not to be a 3rd fight I'd imagine yet I'd rather see Fury v Joshua. They both made 19 million guaranteed with PPV expected to see that rise fairly significantly..... and the split was 50/50 - the trilogy fight would see the split 60/40 in Fury's favour…. No way Fury turns that down - and I am sure with the dismantling that Fury gave Wilder he would be more than confident of a repeat win... which would also then set him up for a super-fight with Joshua too. There is probably more money in the trilogy fight for Fury than in a Joshua fight, strange though that sounds, because ticket prices in Vegas are ridiculous - and the PPV audience with an American participant would be higher as a higher number of interested viewers. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7 6,170 Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 I wouldn’t want to have to ask Rocky Marciano to wear a walk on costume. Dressing gown and trumpet fanfare is all you need. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
compo 7,221 Posted February 25, 2020 Author Share Posted February 25, 2020 I remember seeing an amateur fight in the Kelvin hall once and the two boxers being disqualified for not fighting for two rounds they waltzed about the ring making faces at each other 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baillie1872 13 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 See Dillian Whyte bumping his gums again. Fury should just fight him, do him in 4 rounds and let him fight amongst the likes of Price and Chisora 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
