Tyson Fury signs with Zuffa ?

[mickey1975]

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

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

Do you think Fwank will take it on the chin?

Depends on whether he has a choice or not. He'll get what he's entitled to. Nobody knows anything, yet.

As I said earlier I wonder if all ok with Fwank health wise as he's not been around much recently. He's 74 now

[Taansend]

He really never has wanted to fight Joshua, has he

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.

Let us not forget about him & his wife lying about donating his whole Wilder 1 purse to homeless charities.

Wrong 'un.

Definitely.

Makes sense Fury signing with Turki in all fairness, his views on homosexuality aligns with the Saudis

If that’s the case, most boxers are with Turki’s

He’s been paying a lot of purses recently.

[CaptainSpacerod]

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.

I observed him at reasonably close quarters at the Dubois Wardley fight. He looked to be in rude health, stood on his feet for ages enthusiastically glad handing all and sundry.

[CaptainSpacerod]

It's a little bit silly to conflate a throwaway line from a young daft Tyson Fury with a despotic regime that actively persecutes a section of the population

His detractors are too quick to seize on a handful of careless comments whilst ignoring all the good that he does. Like many famous, wealthy sports stars he gives his time and money to numerous charities

[Eolaithe]

I wonder if the AJ-Fury fight, which was apparently contractually locked-in and included specific language to prevent Zuffa or TKO’s involvement with the promotion of the bout, has been called off?

Turki Al-Sheikh is a co-founder of Zuffa and indirectly owns part of it (via Sela/General Entertainment Authority).

[dbf]

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.

Yep. Worst exclusivity deal ever. DAZN have to be annoyed at that.

When AJ fights on Netflix, they pay DAZN a shitload of money for the privilege.

Dana's a wife beater, which makes him scum in my book.

[2457825]

It's a little bit silly to conflate a throwaway line from a young daft Tyson Fury

Well said, he's matured so much since then and never, ever says anything 'daft' these days.

Well done. Good to see someone with someone with some backbone

Yes it takes a lot of 'backbone' to make a disparaging comment about someone when the person it's aimed will almost certainly never see it.

'someone with some'

That's a horribly constructed sentence, may I suggest:

'someone with THE' etc

[gregregegg]

Going with Dana would clear up any of him or his teams USA problems I guess… just a quick phone call to the prez.

He is a big name with a big fight potentialy lined up but at 37 having not beat a top 30 in 3.5 years… should anyone really care… (obviously fwank should care, missing a % of fury vs aj would sting).

What fights would you actualy be genuinely excited to see fury in?

AJ, way past it but I’ll be excited to see that if it happens…

Moses, but fury won’t like the risk vs reward of fighting a kid.

DDD? Fury has been pretty vocal about not wanting or needing that…

That’s it for me. Fury just dosent interest me that much these days with all his bulshit excuses and fornicating around.

Sarcasm aside i think my point is valid

Epstein = Scum

OrangeNonce is in the files about 35,000 times so also scum, among the many other reasons for him to be scum.

Fury wears a cap wanting sex offenders to lead the UK so scum in addition to many other things he's said plus the mysterious entire purse donated to charity bollocks.

And is going to be promoted by the wife beating scum who cosies up to the friend of Epstein scum (34 felonies) which is why Fury was quickly allowed back into the US.

I'm done hearing defences for these people.

Fury is showing you loud & clear what type of person he is.

Then the downshift into playing the victim. Classic DARVO behaviour.

Do you not recognise parody when you see it?

And what 'classic' behaviour do you think you display?
