Whyte will withdraw and Fury will fight a bum instead.

Whyte won’t get a better pay day. He was mandatory and got his clock cleaned, in the WBC’s eyes that resets his value to 0

Hearn went in asking for an 60/40 split WBC laughed him out of the door, he’s lucky he didn’t get offered 90/10

80/20 on the first if Whyte wins 55/45 On the rematch

Hope you're right.

20% of this purse will still be more than Whyte has ever made, surely?

The base purse for the 3rd Wilder fight was £10m which Fury took 60% of. Plus the PPV money which they reckon was about £50m which again Fury got £60% of.

Whyte wanted £10m 

Arum offered £5.5 which Whyte rejected. He’s now going to get £2m which is what he got for Povetkin which is his career highest but the PPV was nothing compared to what he will get for the Fury fight

So yes it will be, depends how they now play this and it’s location. UK it’s guaranteed PPV sales. America it’s higher PPV less tax (if it’s vegas) but less numbers. 
And believe it or not Fury’s PPV numbers in America aren’t that great 

Just seen that there will be no boxing events in the UK in January because of Covid.

Only Eubank fighting. We’ll be alright.

 

Charles Martin Vs Luis Ortiz tonight though 

At least we won't have to stay up until dickhead o'clock to watch it.

 

Predictions?

I like Whyte but I don’t see him beating Fury. 
Fury on Points 

Went for stupid money didn't it this next Fury fight?

Highest purse bid ever. Frank Warrens company, I assume funded by Bob Arums Top Rank company. They were going to do anything to make sure Matchroom wouldn’t get it, seems to me that matchroom purposely drove up the prize to have more funding for Usyk Joshua 2

Fury will stop him... Probably with an uppercut. 

He’s an awkward little fucker Whyte, orthodox but likes to put people on the back foot, he’s really susceptible to leaving himself open for a big punch. (See Joshua or Povetkin fight) but Fury isn’t a KO artist, he’s a boxing purest. I think he’ll keep Whyte away with his jab

Actually looking forward to the Eubank fight tonight

Zico you do not understand the warrior code 

@Zico you are welcome 

 

Eubank will knock him out round 8.

Ill watch it in the morning...

Anna Woolhouse I would bend her like a pretzel 

Carl Froch said he’s gonna be at the Khan Brook Fight. 
Fuckin hell three of the worst people in boxing.

 

Eubank Jr was alright last night was never getting truly caught. 
 

The bollocks he came out with that he didn’t want to knock him out. 
 

Get out. 
 

I am waiting for him to call out King Canelo
