And to think Khan got more than £7 million for fighting a nobody in Saudi! 
 

No wonder Saudi is likely to host the Fury V joshua fight 

It’s a no brainer

Vegas are shooting themselves in the foot, MGM quoted top rank and matchroom over £20m for venue hire, Nevada now has an increased tax for sporting events. 
Saudi the venues are cheaper, there’s some sort of lower tax clause, boxers get more money, tv companies get cheaper deals. 
They’re talking about Fury Joshua being a £150m fight

A taxi driver in Vegas told me that big casinos had $200m on the floor on fight nights and then not getting a box office fight a month would be a bug problem for them

Someone needs to pay wilder some cash to fuck off

If Fury signed a contract with a rematch clause for a 3rd fight then he is entitled to it.

There is a reason Wilder has been quietly training like Clubber Lang while these two have been talking bollocks on Twitter

What odds can you get on Wilder being undisputed champ by next year?

He’d have to beat Fury, give Whyte the mandatory beat him, then beat AJ.

so pick your own odds

Notwithstanding the fact he beats neither fury or Joshua. 

If he lands that swinging Hail Mary right hand he will take anyone out but the best boxers see it coming a mile off , he has no jab , cant work on the inside, and can’t feint 

I don’t even think he’d beat Whyte, the big dosser

He was pretty fucking close to taking Fury's head off his shoulders in the first fight.

Wilder's flaws are obvious, but he's worth a punt vs anyone as a big underdog (as he would be against Joshua or Fury in a third fight).

He might beat AJ if he catches him cold early on.

Not sure mate. Like Rudy says he’s got that ko power for sure but fury terrorized him last fight and I think Joshua is also two big and powerful and knocks wilder out within 6. But wtf do I know at the end of the day. 
 

I just hope we get to see all these big fights.
