Barclays isn’t bad at all. At least it would be on in the UK at 3am and not 5am..

I’d much prefer it in the UK. Time for Wilder to return to the UK, this time as a champion.

Before reading, I was assuming it would be a US vs UK article. Apparently, Wilder wants Vegas or New York...

Fury should demand Wilder travel, after being the victim of hometown scoring once. He has nothing to prove. If Wilder says no, Fury negotiates a fight with Joshua instead. Leave Wilder to fight Breazeale for a fraction as much money.

Of course, it's not that simple. Not least, because Hearn and Warren would have to do business together.

I would rather it be a stadium card in the UK also.

Vegas will likely beat out Barclays if the options are that limited.

Well let's see which promoter had the most money. If this is wbc ordered it may have to come down to a purse bid. Then it's anyone's game to jump in and take control.
Looking forward to this fight

As I understand, it's not actually WBC ordered, just WBC approved (I.e. they'll allow, or even prefer this, above forcing Wilder to face Breazeale). If terms don't get agreed, I think they'll just order the Breazeale fight, rather than purse bids for a rematch.

I know it was a draw and all, but if you were Wilder it Fury, could you be arsed?

After all that, training camp, gruelling fight ect.

I’d wanna tune up with a current Joe Bugner next if I was either of them.

I’m knackered out just thinking about another fight between them

UK is the best option. Once at Wilder's, once at Fury's backyard, it sounds fair.

UK makes more sense, Shirley ?

Putting a PPV on the early to late afternoon is unlikely to turn off that many US punters, but, (understandably) having the fight start at 2-5AM is a big turn off for UK viewers.

Almost certainly not - the tube would be closed. No one could get home. Doubt the council would grant a license either. Plus... 4Am Kick off - who'd go ?
