I believe, Irish drug barons, fronted by Matthew Macklin.
Should mean Tyson gets a fvcking cracking rate on his sniff at the very least!

Oh it's those lot. Some ex IRA (allegedly) in there isn't there or is that their rivals?

Maybe who BJS was alluding to when he said Tyson had huge backing. The Kinihan mob are reported to be worth €500m.

A good move providing daniel kinahan doesn’t get whacked and is able to fund mtk global with the profits from international drug smuggling.

Hasn't Kinahan just sold mtk?

I don't think they're out running gear for them. Daniel Kinihan is a huge boxing fan and has bankrolled MTK from the off. Obviously, some will get caught up in the crossfire, like Jamie Moore, shot for going to a party!

Reported in papers like the Irish Sun...not like them to ever overstate and dramatise! Their write ups would have people thinking these Irish chaps make Pablo look like he was a pauper.mickey1975 wrote: ↑25 Nov 2017, 20:19 Maybe who BJS was alluding to when he said Tyson had huge backing.

Safe to say they have a few quid kicking about though.

We'll never know the ins and outs but I always thought it was monumentally stupid to agree, at the 11th hour, to rematch options with Wlad, at the purse bids time before their first (and only) fight. Tyson was the #1 contender and did not have to concede that option. In the end, he ended up fighting on German soil anyway. The rematch obligation well and truely screwed things up for Fury, along with (obviously) the drug allegations. I don't know why anyone would work hard to get into the mandatory position slot and then sign away something so important. If you win the big fight of your career you should be in charge of your own destiny from then on, and the people around you should make sure contractually you can.
I feel sorry for Mick but it is fair to say Fury has not been well managed or well advised.

The Klitschkos had rematch options sown into loads of their contracts though. And it's not like an outsider winning the heavyweight title doesn't usually result in a rematch anyway: Tyson Holyfield and Lewis Rahman for example.JimJim2009 wrote: ↑26 Nov 2017, 05:27 We'll never know the ins and outs but I always thought it was monumentally stupid to agree, at the 11th hour, to rematch options with Wlad, at the purse bids time before their first (and only) fight.

Yep it was standard operating procedure for voluntaries and they would have negotiated it into mandatories too, given half a chance. Fury shouldn't have conceded it contractually. Doesn't mean there can't be a rematch, it just prevents you for being contractually tied to the guy you just beat. If my memory is correct this contractual clause was not mandatory, it was agreed voluntarily at the purse bids in south america at the 11th hour.

Best example is Buster Douglas; he was such a rank outsider nobody put the rematch clause into the contract. He shocked the world, held out for the best offer, and got $24.5m to defend against Holyfield.

But Wlad was never going into that fight without a rematch clause and the rematch itself could still have done big money in Germany. (Neither Wlad or Fury have any sizeable UK fanbase hence the rematch over here tanking.)
Not sure Fury was badly advised regarding the rematch as much as his team overrated his popularity, leading to the need to host it in a comparatively small venue and therefore astronomical ticket prices.
