It could be anywhere and people would tune in and watch.

The highest bid will win and that certainly won't be Wembley <laugh>

England will probably come about 50th in the bidding.

Assuming the fight gets made, I’d imagine the Saudi’s will offer the largest purse, but the fight has to be here, the Summer in the open air or Cardiff under the roof. It’s a fight for the fans and it needs a huge U.K. venue.

Hearn will claim Fury won’t give AJ his fair purse of 95% for being muscly.

One thing is for damn sure, AJ will not want this fight in The US.
 
Superb from Fury. Completely outclassed him from start to finish and make him look a joke. Hard to see Wilder coming back from that.

We'd like to think that but in reality people will tune in and watch no matter where its held.

They had this discussion on the radio earlier and the overriding response was its unlikely to be in the UK. Even Frank Warren mentioned it.

It's a business so why would they turn down the biggest deal to keep people happy that are still going watch it no matter where it is.

I'd love a Wembley night in August, but unlikely from what I just heard.

I meant a fight for the fans of live boxing, who attend fights. Both boxers have massive support and the fight should be held here in a huge venue that allows 80,000 of them to actually attend.

But no, they’ll go where the biggest purse is, and **** the fans, they’ll pay on PPV anyway.

@BigFox will be livid that the big puncher didn’t beat the ex junkie. One year on from AJ ruling the world, the American dream is in tatters and Bigfox is crying into his half-finished ****.

I haven't posted here on ages, glad I'm still remembered at least even if I have no clue what you are on about - do you watch boxing like football and are only a fan of one boxer so can't support any others?

I admitted many times I don't like Fury as a person but liked him as a boxer. I did watch the match and it was a masterfully boxed match - am glad that his new trainer finally taught him how to punch properly as a guy that size should have been boxing like this his entire career to go along with his skill.

Fury has said that he wants to face Wilder in the rematch in the new stadium being built in San Francisco and then Joshua - hopefully those fights will happen but if not, I hope the WBC will finally give Whyte a shot after being #1 contender for over 2 years rather then carrying on Wilder's run of ducking him and fighting bums.
 
Respect to Tyson Fury ... what differentiates him from many boxers is not his fists ... it's his brain ... dismantled a very dangerous opponent spectacularly .<cheers>
