[ BOXING FURY WON IN ROUND 6 ]: FURY vs WHYTE - THE FIGHT

[coin-investor]

Frank Warren said today that "Fury wanted to make a statement" when he gets in the ring with Dillian Whyte. The fight will take place on 23rd April 2022 at Wembley Stadium. The report can be read here on SKY SPORTS

Fury also taunted Whyte on Twitter by saying he will knock him out but Whyte has stayed quiet and kept a low profile, he was even absent from the ticket launch last month.

The seating capacity for the fight at Wembley Stadium will be a staggering 94,000.

Fury is so good at making a hype of his fight, but this time it's real he really wants to knock out Whyte for not making a way for a possible fight against Usyk, and there's no need for Whyte to hype the fight, with Fury the boxing community is already hyped on this fight, the boxing community is not expecting an upset, Fury already established his legacy and an upset will blow it away, Fury wants to go further by winning all the belts.

The reason why Wembley Stadium will be at 94,000 tell sell out is because of Fury. I doubt Whyte on his own can generate enough interest to fill anywhere near a quarter of the crowd.

-------------------

You are right, Fury is good at creating hype. I think Fury is a walking talking self-promoter and he does not need Whyte in the promotional events and press conferences to sell the fight because he can do all that on his own.

No doubt Tyson Fury is the best and only boxing fighter now that is good in pre-fight teasing words which will always increase the buzz of boxing fans and I could remember the time when he want to fight Wilder in their trilogy fight he called him (Wilder) "a real piece of garbage".
Yes, 94,000 boxing fans will watch the fight but what should we expect in his upcoming fight with Whyte after he (Fury) lost at the press conference.

[Leo]

Fury will definitely win this fight, Fury is a giant at 6.9 and 277 lbs. He uses that weight well and lands his jabs well. Fury is a bigger man, he always threw his big size on wilder when they fought the two fight then, that's one of his game plan, if whyte can overcome this probably he might give fury a suprise........ But all I see in this fight is either a draw or fury wins

[hilariousetc]

In all probability this fight will not leave Frank Warren out of pocket or not reach potential profits because Wembley Stadium will be sold out for the fight and it is almost inconceivable that the fight will not be shown in Europe, US and Canada by cable and satellite operators. The rights to the fight will bring in plenty of funds for Frank Warren and his partners.

Actual ticket sales will make up only a small portion of the income from this fight. The big money comes from the PPVs. I'm sure the in person tickets will sell out but I think this fight is going to have to do very well world wide to make a decent profit. I'm sure the demand in the UK will be huge but I'm not sure how excited American audiences will be.

Whyte has finally done a media interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzsEVKC9nEw

It's not really worth watching as he doesn't really say much. I'm guessing either Warren gave in and acquiesced to some of Whyte's demands in exchange for promotion or there was actually something in the contact that required it. It's in Dillian's interests to do something as he'd be a fool to walk away from this fight which we know isn't going to happen. It's still his biggest payday by far and likely will be the last time he gets that sort of money again unless he actually beats Fury which isn't likely to happen.

[JollyGood]

In fairness to Whyte he was never a great orator, he was never gifted in the way say for example Fury is therefore I am not surprised you advised to not watch the interview

Yes it will be the biggest pay day of his career but Whyte feels he was short changed and as you said he will probably not walk away from the fight as the winner. He should retire after this fight knowing he tried his best but it was not good enough.

I agree about him not exactly having the gift of the gab, but he could have at least offered some insight or tried to do some mindgames on Fury. It was all just vanilla, but I'm guessing deep down he still doesn't really wanna promote the fight given there's nothing in it for him at this point.  Whether he should retire or not depends on how well he does in this fight. If he gives Fury a hard time I'm sure this will renew interest in him, but I'm not sure that will happen. As for the money, he might feel short changed in regards to what Fury is getting but it's still more than 8 times than what he got from his last fight. It doubles if he wins as well so there's a hell of an incentive. He will have enough money to retire after this fight but boxers seem to go through cash like it's unlimited hence why they end up fighting way past their prime.  There's still probably options for him though.

Only few days are left, and I can't wait to see Tyson Fury fighting again, and you can bet your house he will try to win this fight with a style in his country at Wembley stadium.
Fury has a big reach advantage and odds for him are very low, so I would look for value in some special bets.
I think this fight is just a warm up for long expected fight against Anthony Joshua, this would be much moer interesting to watch and I would again support Fury to win.

Whyte waited so long for this opportunity, I worry for him that maybe he has waited too long and will go in to this fight half-hearted. He does seem fairly disinterested in the fight and the opportunity to become WBC heavyweight world champion but that could be down to him feeling he was deprived of his real share of the fight.

In that case if it is all about finances as far as Whyte is concerned, the best scenario for him would be to defeat Fury and then have the rematch. In that way whether he wins or loses the second fight that would set him up for life but I think the chances of that happening are virtually zero.

You seem sure Fury will face Joshua for a unification fight but in order for that to happen Fury must defeat Whyte and in the other fight Joshua must defeat Usyk. In my opinion it is highly unlikely a Fury vs Joshua unification fight will happen. I think a Fury vs Usyk  unification fight is more likely to happen.

What it a pre fight conference? Dont you happen to know, if I can watch it somewhere? Every Fury fight is a double performance, first he makes fun out of his opponent in a conference, then he defeats his opponent for the second time on the ring. I dont think that Whyte was not on the conference, because he is trying to hide his form and impress us this Saturday. With this absence, he actually already lost. He just dont wanted to mentally lose before they meet on the ring.

[inthelongrun]

At last Dillian Whyte gets his long waited title shot. But it is hard to imagine Dillian beating Fury. Dillian doesn't have the footwork, hand speed and strength to outbox and outmuscle Fury. His only chance is to knock or at least hurt the champion to change the tempo of the fight. This seems like a mission impossible for Dillian, seeing how Fury gets up a total of 4 times from one of the hardest if not the hardest puncher in heavyweight history of boxing.

Okay I am taking my bet on Tyson Fury now. Odds isn't good but I believe that Dillian Whyte doesn't have the stamina to survive Fury's fighting pace. So i'm taking that 1.82 Tyson Fury by ko/tko.

I dunno. I think he'll be up for it. He has to be. Going into this fight half-hearted would be a very bad idea. He knows what he needs to do and this is the biggest stage he's ever going to have so even if he doesn't win putting on a good performance will earn him some fans. It's pretty much his last chance to make an impression on the world stage and after this it's likely just bums he'll be facing unless he exceeds expectations.

In that case if it is all about finances as far as Whyte is concerned, the best scenario for him would be to defeat Fury and then have the rematch. In that way whether he wins or loses the second fight that would set him up for life but I think the chances of that happening are virtually zero.

I don't think there is a rematch clause if I recall correctly what Tyson said, but I'm sure if Whyte did win he'd be all too willing to fight Fury again. If there's no rematch clause then the ball would be in his court so he has all the power and can dictate the terms of the rematch which Fury would have no choice but to accept.

They can still fight even if AJ doesn't have a belt. With or without any belts I still think the fight would be the biggest British boxing match of all time. Bigger than Fury/Whyte that's for sure. Of course it would be even bigger if all the belts were on the line. I don't think it's impossible that AJ can't win the belts back either. AJ knows what to expect of Usyk now so I don't think he's going to make the same mistake. My money probably would be on Usyk again but I could see it going the distance next time. The only issue is Usyk might have a rematch clause for this fight so it could end up going to  a trilogy fight like Fury/Wilder.

This fight seems to be a challenging fight for Dillian Whyte and that only means that hurting a champion like Tyson Fury he needed to prepare for this game more than his 100 percent best and should develop his speed, footworks and strength. Whyte waited so long for this opportunity and with that being said this is also the opportunity which a challenging opportunity for him so he needs to take it seriously because his opponent is an undefeated champion..

You're right, Whyte has no chance of outboxing Fury, so if someone believes in Whyte, they shouldn't bet on a simple win with 4.9 odds. It is much more profitable to bet with 6.2 odds that Whyte will win by knockout. To be honest, I'm now thinking about making such a bet - the odds seem to be profitable, the only thing that confuses me is that Fury is able to get up after a knockout and continue the fight without any problems.

[Rruchi man]

You're right, Whyte has no chance of outboxing Fury...

Very excited that i will get to see Fury fight again and so soon. We may just be witnessing his last days in the ring. Whyte although we may all see him as the underdog for this fight has some pretty good statistics coming into this fight and should not be widely underated especially by Fury himself, because that will be his first point of failure. A lot is on the line for Fury, i don't think this is a KO match, both fighters look capable to fight to the last round.

[JollyGood]

If there is no rematch clause then that will be another potential error on part of Frank Warren. The other was not having including obligations on part of Whyte to attend fight promotions.

It was not exactly a smooth face off when they met yesterday. Their teams had to be pulled apart. John Tyson nearly had a fight with a member of the Whyte team but they calmed the situation down.

In the end the boxers were not involved in trying to have a pre-fight fight. It looked they were best friends when they stood in Wembley for the photo shoot

It's indeed a big error we never know if the fight will be excited that fans will want a rematch if Whyte wins Fury will have to go to the winner of Joshua - Usyk to get another crack at Whyte, and boxers should be obligated to promote the fight the promoters spent money for the fight and they should help the fight to make a profit, that's the reason why Whyte is always absent in their conference who would promote a fighter who is not attending promotion anyway Fury is the big attraction here so I guess Whyte will have to take a back seat.

This fight is happening not because of the normal way in staging fights where champions and superstars offer money to their challengers while demanding some fight details especially a rematch clause. But this one is different. There was no agreement reached until deadline which prompted the WBC to schedule the purse bid. Bidding for a single mandatory fight where both fighters purse are even fixed which defending champions usually take 60% to 75% depending on the sanctioning body (WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO). These fixed purse splits can be advantageous when someone is fighting a superstar like in this case. Dillian Whyte was probably not satisfied by Fury's previous offers so he could easily wait until deadline of negotiations where purse bid becomes the final solution. These mandatory fights are also common reasons why some unified champions will just relinquished their belts. Lennox Lewis and Canelo for example dumped their IBF belts before.

[Welsh]

Surely, since Usyk I believe is currently in Ukraine fighting for his country, surely the most logical thing to do now would be to put that fight on the back burner, since we don't know exactly when he'll return, and set up the Fury vs Joshua fight, assuming that Fury beats Whyte on the weekend. I know Fury has said he's retiring, and for those that are taking that serious, it might just be a plan to try, and make the above happen, since we've all wanted that fight.

Usyk could actually then get the opportunity to beat Joshua on the rematch with belts in his hands. Even if I don't personally believe Fury is retiring yet, he hasn't got an awful amount of time ahead of him, at least at his peak. So, I don't see the match makers making these two fights in the next couple of years, since in boxing they're notoriously slow at it. This might be the best route for all fighters given the current circumstances.

Also, I probably won't be watching this fight, but I'm expecting Fury to win it without any issues. Probably finishes Whyte too given his age, and lack of stamina. Although, I could easily see it going to a decision win by Fury too, depends on the route he wants to take.

I don't think this is a error (if it exists at all). Firstly, the Fury team is completely confident that Fury will win the fight and we must admit that they are most likely right. Secondly, if Fury loses, then the interest in the rematch will be such (and so much money will be at stake) that Whyte will have no choice and the rematch will still take place.
