Tyson Fury signs with Zuffa ?

[Controversial]

Seeing this doing the rounds, Fury at UFC event a few hours ago

“I’ll let Dana do the speaking and do the announcement. It’s a massive announcement. I’m very excited for this fight [with Joshua]. It’s been over a decade in the making. For whatever reason it hasn’t happened.

“There’s a potential fight in August and maybe at the end of the year it happens [with Joshua]. I’m looking forward to fighting whoever they put in front of me and getting back to what I do best, winning.”

Nor sure if he has signed to them

But

He was previously unable to attend the USA because of his kinahan ties (https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/18998859 ... %20victory.)

Now he's at the White House

Zuffa/TKO Group has got unreal levels of political power and access - Ari Emmanuel is a big player in the Israel lobby as well as being a huge player in the mass media /mass entertainment market.

2026 and Fury still sh1tting it from a shot to pieces Joshua

I was waiting for this one...Hearn will not stop a fighter getting the best deal. Tyson will always go where the money is, even if it means shitting on everyone. Hearns ego is all that can stop this fight.
Ps I'm not spending the next year arguing like we did when you all said he wouldn’t fight Usyk. I think Fury's bank manager would say he played that one ok.

[coneye]

Well well well , first of all you would have to say , wait and see, it would seem highly unlikely he would , simply because of the Hearn --- Whyte feud it would be highly doubtfull of Hearn letting his contracted fighter go anywhere near a Zuffa show. or Whyte

But if he has , well its just the equivelent of pricing himself out , and he did'nt want it in the first place

What about Fwank?

I don't know anything about their legal situation. Or anyone else's for that matter. Let's see how it all unfolds. I do think Hearn was being a bit premature calling Dana, TKO, Zuffa amateurs...

Hearn said recently in an interview that they had a contract to say no Zuffa involvement and it has to be in England but then went on to say Turki/Sela could send a new contract through so basically White could promote the event if Turki wants it that way.

Also the whole angle Hearn will spin is AJ desperately wanted in the uk for the fans but Turki has made it in (well it looks that way) Vegas. Hearn conceded as well that the gate would be a lot higher in the US

So funny if Zuffa heavyweight title is on the line considering all that Hearn has said.


AJ’s exclusive Matchroom and DAZN deals made a mockery of as well - AJ’s previous fight was promoted by MVP on Netflix and this could be a Zuffa show on Netflix. One thing is clear despite what Hearn says - they will go where the money is.

Fury may have played a great card here by linking up with Zuffa. Got himself back in the US has the president on his side!!

Since signing his exclusive DAZN deal, AJ has boxed twice exclusively on DAZN. Franklin and Helenius. Neither ppv.

Fwank says it's in Fury's contract that Dana White can't be the promoter. I'm not sure how that means Eddie is the only person who can stop the fight happening.

They must all know something we don't.

Well Joshua's promoter is claiming Zuffa cant be involved legally and now Fury may be signing with Zuffa, it don't look great

[Controversial]

Talking of FW I wonder if everything is ok with him health wise as he’s not been very visible recently, haven’t seen him in interviews or at events you’d expect him to be at.

[Controversial]

There’s a short clip of Spencer Brown being interviewed and he gave a very noncommittal reply when asked about Dana and venue of AJ fight. Basically said it’s boxing and you never know and Eddie has had to change what he’s said before. Also said they can’t have it where it’s cold and rainy. Money talks as always.

[handsofstone]

See Fury wearing a Trump for prime minister hat, bootlicking clown

Yeah, but you're saying Eddie's the only person who can stop the right happening. Why is that?

Fury's had a stadium fight in the winter before. Bit odd for Brown to say that.

[SeanBrennan]

Has he definitely signed?

I guess they will say whatever pays the most money.

[Taansend]

He really never has wanted to fight Joshua, has he

Because I believe he is. AJ is very, very loyal to him. Just my opinion.

[Controversial]

Fury has posted that Turki is now his promotor until he retires

Do you think Fwank will take it on the chin?

[keithmoonhangover]

I mean Christ, they've both signed contracts and it's good to go in the UK. Now all of a sudden, Fury is trying to worm out of it.
