sure looks like it

[Ruthless-RKO]

sure looks like it

He looks OLD!

[Manchester Hitman]

FW should be announcing the PPV price soon.

Will be £24.95 no doubt .

It will be down to BT to announce. I wouldn’t expect to hear anything until around 2 weeks before the fight, especially if they up the price to £29.00 as I suspect.

Yeh I was thinking that too.

Yeh, BT will get the final say.

FW can push them to a price too if persuasive.

I'm pretty much convinced that if this fight doesn't do big numbers there'll be not much money for Tyson's purse.

Bob Arum will be paying for most of it anyway won't he? BT aren't doing this for free and will be taking 50% of the PPV profits which won't leave much for the fighters. Will this be on PPV in the US?

Has Mickey forgotten his password?

He won,t be long he,s just finishing the last couple metres of tarmac Only joking Mickey

No worries, coneye, I can take a joke has much has the next man.

What if the next man is Will Smith?

Well spotted. Mickey can be way more subtle than he's given credit for. Good response. I'm sure coneye will agree.

Yes. Plus rights from the rest of the world and sponsors. The gate will break all records here.

Hope you are right. I don't see how they are going to get near what Fury's end of the split looks like on paper.

But you'll miss Tommy "Insta" Fury!

At this rate he will be fighting Freddie Flintoff to help save the undercard.

Freddie might be a bit much for him yet.
Baby steps mate, baby steps

just checked the card and tommy not there, just isaac

Yes, nothing on boxrec right now.
But there have been a few fighters mentioned.
Dunno how true it is, but I'm guessing this will be a historic undercard guaranteed to have members of the crowd foolish enough to turn up for it early- unsettled, angry and feeling short changed by the main event.
Classic Fwank

Jesus, imagine a Fury-Chisora 2 crowd
with 80,000 people there

It will be nearer 100,000 and almost all Fury fans, mainly from the travelling community. It would be the same against AJ. People said I was mad for saying that. Watch.

[margaret thatcher]

crowd of 100,000 for aj-fury, imagine how it will set off when josh ko's big tyson

[maverick23]

There’s been a few people mentioning that Team Fury were given the best part of 10,000 tickets for this at face value with the idea that the tickets could be sold on at a profit.

Anyone else heard that? Surely any profits would then be passed on to a charity of Tyson’s choosing.

Goldstar have some.... I really don't think Tyson gets involved with all that. Tony Booth is selling some and he has a good relationship with Goldstar.

I would imagine Dillian will have some very serious boys buying up tickets as well to support him.

I just really hope Warren is employing a very heavy firm on security.

I’m sure he doesn’t get directly involved with it but it’s not a good look to have the extended team of Tyson profiting like this.

Can you imagine going to this fight? You'd be on hyper alert all night thinking you could get your head caved in at any moment.

I'm a coward at the best of times. Add in casuals, coke fuelled experts and piss covered floors in the toilets and there isn't enough money in the world that would make me go to this!

[mickey1975]

Fwank can bring whoever he wants in as security. It will be a total takeover on the night. Boxing only has decent security for ringside anyway.

Big Baby Miller has joined the Fury camp

Big Baby Miller has joined the Fury camp

Even after Fury mocked Miller being a useless sparring partner for two years? Another Fury U-turn.
