Matchroom bidding for Klitschko - Fury

[magnus]

Either Frank or Eddie would suit me - K2 undercards are woeful.

If Eddie wanted it he could keep his gob shut, put in a bid while the competition doesn't expect him to, and see what comes of it. To me todays announcement is pure sxxt-stirring.

Agreed, i'm guessing he might just be taking the piss to make others overbid fearing they might lose, causing the winner to pay over the odds to promote the event.

Whats in it for Eddie?

Eddie wants to see BN go to the wall, Fwank wants to see Eddie's exclusivity deal with Sky go belly up. The competition isn't just about nicking each others fighters or beating each other to the next prospects turning pro.

If BN goes to the wall I don't think Fwank would ever recover, and I don't think his sons would ever get a proper foothold in the sport over the long term. Meanwhile, Eddie's dominance rests upon the exclusive deal with Sky.

Fwank needs big events to draw new subscribers to BN and lord knows he has put a lot into getting Fury onside and to a world title fight. Both these promoters have good and bad points and whilst I'm not totally negative about Eddie I think he's being a cxxt by talking about signing Fury and by suggesting he might be putting in a purse bid. Its a business at the end of the day and he can put in a bid if he wants but I can't help feel he is just sxxt stirring. He was at it with Avalos earlier in the year, which I figured was sxxt stirring aimed at McGuigan.

I think Matchroom will team up with Sauerland and put in a joint bid

If i was Eddie I would not be particularly worried about BN right now. In fact I tend to agree when he says BN is good for Matchroom. Even if that was the case, I doubt FW would overbid to defend from Matchroom. Simply because he is not outbidding K2 anyways. Only side that probably is worried is K2 here. So that does not add up for me.

Where did you here Eddie talking about signing Fury. If that is the case then I think this is it. Maybe he wants to create publicity around himself and Fury and then aims to make an offer if Fury beats Klit. Or put him on Sky. Imagine the magnitude of Fury v Joshua clash if Tyson is the unified champion.

German soft rock, Bunces mug or Nick Hallings nonsense. Its quite a choice.

I didn't hear it, my pal does a radio show which Eddie was a guest on, he asked him who he'd like to sign, he said Fury.

I hope Eddie budgets for triple the security.

The were countless stories of gypsies walking in without a ticket and sitting and standing where they felt for the Chisora rematch.

Purse bid today and Fury is talking about Moscow: https://twitter.com/Tyson_Fury/status/6 ... 4870494208

Is this a case of not knowing Geography, not to mention politics, or is Ryabinsky also involved?

[mickey1975]

Tyson says what he wants. I hope Germany. Love the country.

Part bullshit but Frank is working with Vlad Hryunov.

Im going with K2 promotions, held in Germany, around $12million... Bit of an obvious borring choice but thats what I think!

Anyone know what time we can expect the annoucement (Panama is 6 hours behind us) and is Eddie on the morning flight over there???
