[BOXING POLL ADDED] FURY vs JOSHUA: A Two Fight Deal Has Already Been Signed !!

[dunfida]

There's no other opponent of Fury that could excite us, except Joshua. We would not know who will be the best heavyweight fighter if two will not meet, it's not good for boxing and fans would not be happy on that as they only hype things out but turn out not realizing it.

The best Heavyweight is hands down Tyson Fury as he always fought high profile opponents as an underdog away from his home and yet he was able to defeat each and every one of the high profile opponents and even when Tyson returned after a few years he was able to defeat Deontay Wilder and then the judges messed up and then in the rematch he proved his worth as the best in the world.

Honestly its unpredictable but once those fighters inside on the ring then you can already able to tell out on who does have the advantage but as long the fight isnt over

then tendency of such changes of situation could really happen from time to time.I agree into those words that this fight had been anticipated by many and it would be much more better
to make out some revenue out of this fight rather than letting those boxers find another opponent which isnt really even that interesting to see on.

Frank Warren is the promoter of Tyson Fury and he says that basically there is no deal in place and Tyson Fury will not sign up to the fight with Joshua until the money is guaranteed by a bank. Warren said:

"That's where it is. I'm not going down the road of where the fight's going to take place, who those negotiations are with because it's all moot at the moment."

It is clear Eddie Hearn (promoter of Anthony Joshua) has been exaggerating the whole situation by claiming a country had offered to pay lots of money to host the fight but the fact is nothing has happened. He was stringing Fury along and by default he was stringing his fighter Joshua too.

Months after the contract to arrange the fight has expired there is still no venue and no money has been guaranteed.

I blame Hearn for this fiasco because he was so desperate to pocket his share of the commission from the fight he allowed this mess to occur. If Hearn did not have a deal in place with any country then he should never have spread misinformation in the media about the fight going ahead.

In other words, this fight has no assurance to happen as well? I think they are just giving us reasons because of the current situation where they cannot maximize their earnings due to lack of pay-per-view money when it comes to this fight. We are still in the second wave of the pandemic so it simply means when they make this fight happen this year, their earnings are not really that high and they also miss some opportunities since the other company won't take participation in this fight because they already know they will only get low percentage gain.

That could boil down to the money they will generate in this game, Fury and Joshua have a big purse on this fight if it will happen, without big funding it will not happen and IMO, it's really difficult to raise a huge amount during this time, so maybe they are just saving it at the right timing.

For now, Fury and Joshua have to win fights if they want to preserve that excitement and sure they can find the right time once the pandemic is over.
Fury has to end the trilogy by a win against Wilder so Wilder can fully accept his defeat and he will stop talking, maybe we will see that fight happening soon as that is a potential income-generating.

Hearn is a slick salesman and he can make people believe anything. That's why so many are blaming Tyson Fury's side for the fight not happening even though it is reasonable that he would want some kind of guarantee that the money he is being offered is actually there. Fighters get ripped off all the time and you can't just blindly accept $75 million dollars that might not exist. He could be fighting Wilder for half that amount instead but at least he would have peace of mind knowing that the money is sitting in a bank and he can legally claim it when he fulfills all the requirements of the contract.

So this one ends up not happening. But Tyson's camp is right on this, how can someone announced it to public about their upcoming fight if there is no final agreement in place?  Hearn is after for the commission and now it is gone. Should have done the deal first. He thought Fury's camp will just say yes.

Here is another bit of news, according to a statement from Eddie Hearn he said the fight will go ahead in Saudi Arabia on either 7 or 14 August and he said he expects announcement in next few days BUT we have all heard this drama drag out for so many months. Hearn seems to have behaved in a very unprofessional manner throughout, he seems completely untrustworthy.

I wonder what caused this behavior - real problems with the organization of the fight, or is it a moronic tactic of fanning the excitement, which ultimately leads to the fact that new information about the fight only causes irritation? Hopefully the situation will clear up in the coming days.

As of the moment, Fury has a good chance of finding a good match as they can proceed the Wilder vs Fury 3, which is for me a big fight and time for Fury to end the countless excuse of Wilder if he can again KO Wilder. hopefully, there's positive news regarding this fight, for me it's more interesting than any fight now in the heavyweight since Fury vs Joshua fight was not realize.

It is impossible to create any sort of hype between Wilder and Fury 3 because in the first two fights everyone witnessed who the best boxer was as Tyson Fury dominated Wilder even though he was returning after a long break and he just landed less than a dozen shots and one big shot which Tyson Fury was able to overcome and even after that knockdown Tyson Fury was winning the fight and the second fight was a complete domination from start to finish and if not for the corner stoppage he will be hurt badly.

I would not say that it is impossible but it is going to be something very difficult to do, everyone saw Fury winning both fights and even if the first fight was officially a tie we know who won that fight and this was clearly demonstrated on the second fight, this is why I thought it was a good idea to fight Joshua first, we could have two fights against Joshua and maybe a mandatory defense and this would allow Wilder long enough time to try to improve and if the fans saw that then this could have been good enough to hype a third fight.

For fans hoping that this fight will happen, they will understand that they might be frustrated a bit but the good news is good news as that could possible give them what they are expecting. Whatever the development is as long as the right will happen, that's the only thing that is necessary.

This is a MEGA FIGHT, we can understand why they are excited because they can make big money here while on the fans side, we can also witness a good fight between these two great heavyweights. Now, its up to us if we will still trust the information or not anymore.

Here we go again, another big news to excite us then over time we will see bad news that the fight will not happen anymore. I don't know if I will trust this information, they keep delaying the fight and they keep us waiting, better if they will just cancel this fight and both figures will move on looking for their opponents.

The pandemic would not just allow them to reach their big target revenue.

BREAKING NEWS !!

Here is another announcement from boxing promoter Eddie Hearn, a short while ago he said Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury will fight in Saudi Arabia on 14th August 2021 in a stadium that "will shock the world". Will this be a real announcement or another failed attempt at another promotional stunt from Hearn.

A trilogy at a later time could create interest if Tyson Fury and Wilder fights again but for that Wilder needs to win a few fights with impressive fashion and then Tyson Fury has to maintain his record to make that fight interesting. I am hoping Tyson Fury to dominate and win the fight against Joshua as he is a completely changed man after returning as he is training on a daily basis and he is mentally tough inside the ring.

That is the date Hearn said but it is not official yet.

Lets see if this one would pushes through or would really be hearing out another excuses for the fight to be postponed. August isnt really too far off and its not surprising that they had really indeed decided
to take the fight in Saudi arabia or UAE part. They do know on how to make more bucks.

Here is what is being said: Joshua and Fury's fight will be on August 14 in Saudi Arabia and was described by Hearn as "a done deal" although it is yet to be officially confirmed by both sides.

If it has to be confirmed by both sides then nothing has been confirmed except Hearn trying to be centre of attraction again....

In fact, these announcements of upcoming announcements and the subsequent postponement are already just annoying.
It seems that some side in this deal is dissatisfied with something and does not give a clear consent or refusal, and the organizers of the fight force them to "make a move" with such public statements.

It is annoying as a fan as we are hearing dates from their promoters and even the dates are almost confirmed that the fight would take place in Saudi on August 14th and they wanted to build a new stadium for the fight like they did with the Ruiz fight . May be the final announcement is delayed due to the pandemic situation and clearance from the Saudi king, who knows what is the final hurdle and even Bob Arum thinks that the fight takes place on 14th August.

[FinneysTrueVision]

Tyson Fury just announced that the fight is happening. For me this clears up any doubt whether it will happen or not. Now we can focus on the actual fight instead of the soap opera regarding negotiations.
