I'm guessing you paid £30 for your hero vs Del, I wouldn't pay £27 for this but it's a better fight.

Absolutely. It's good business for Fury’s team to hang on to the commercial coat tails of Joshua.

Seriously, the Netflix thing launches soon. Do you know the difference in exposure between Netflix and DAZN PPV?

I guess each episode will alternate between Fury calling someone either a dosser or a sausage.

I wonder if, after the inevitable tender moment about helping people will mental health issues, it will cut to footage of Fury laughing at AJ having a breakdown in the ring?Or saying horrible things about Uysk and Simon Jordan?

Or will it be a sanitised, scripted documentary, do you think?

I'm looking forward to Ronnie O'Sullivan's series when that comes out as it shows the highs and lows of the snooker season and him beating the best round after round to win his 7th World Title.

Still, the Fury fanatics will get to see the Chisora III fight all over again. Good Times.

Incidentally, there is an excellent documentary of Lennox Lewis' training camp for his first fight against Evander Holyfield

I’d imagine the views will reach millions worldwide. Are they all fanatics? You said he’s clinging on to AJ for recognition… he’s clearly light years ahead hence Netflix-DAZN PPV. If you really believe AJ will do a tenth of their views then you need help.

IMHO, with the styles they both have, it should mesh better than his fight against Fury.
Fury's great at controlling a fight, dictating the pace, and choosing when to get involved after keeping it at range or using his lateral movement.
Joshua doesn't have that ring IQ, tends to get more involved (although less so nowadays) and that would suit Whyte more.
The first fight, apart from that brief moment when Whyte stunned and wobbled him, it was basically all Joshua and he seemed to relish just walking through Whyte and letting his hands go. This more hesitant version runs the risk of getting caught by Whyte by not maintaining the pressure and using his offence to deter Whyte.

AJ doesn't need to do a Netflix show. He has been global since he won the Olympics. Fury has been playing catch up ever since, before losing his boxing nerve along the way..

Also, people watching a Netflix show is not the same number as those buying pay per view to watch Fury box a no hoper. AJ has a long history of bigger PPV sales than Fury..

AJ vs Franklin did 700k buys

Fury vs Chisora III did 300k buys

Aj v Franklin wasn’t ppv! Aj is global? Where? Nobody outside The UK gives a f uck about him. Maybe a few in the Middle East. Losing boxing nerve? Have you seen both box in the last few years? I mix up a few facts and have a laugh but you’ve gone 100% fan boy. Global!!! Lost his nerve! From a guy scared of his own shadow and only comfortable hitting mattresses!

Comfortable enough to get in with Uysk twice and Ruiz twice, neither of whom Fury has been able to find a pen for and sign a contract to fight.

Looking at all the comments on social media, it is clear that Fury has trashed his own legacy and viewed as being a ducker.

mickey1975 wrote: ↑07 Jul 2023, 03:24 I suggest you watch his ring walks against Ruiz 1 and Usyk 1 again, if that's comfortable then I'm bailing!

Did he look comfortable on the main stage at MSG? Why has he never been back to America? Every big name heavyweight fights in Vegas, why hasn't he?

He has been to Saudi Arabia where the money is a lot bigger than in America. Why hasn't Fury thought in America recently?

He was undoubtedly nervous, but he still had the bottle to get in the ring with Uysk and Ruiz. Fury, sadly, lacks that bottle, hence Chisora III and an exhibition against a non boxer pending.

You are obviously a huge Fury fan, so hopefully, non competitive match ups (where the result is known in advance) are a source of real comfort for you.

Are you pumped for the Ngannou exhibition? It's going to be game changing apparently.

He's on the banned list. He's proven out there. Beat Wilder twice in Vegas, inside the distance, one of the fights some people are saying was the greatest heavyweight title fight in Vegas history. Highest grossing, too.
