Good?, it’s another joke and a ******* embarrassment to the sportOh yes, this should be good...
Now I would pay to watch this if that didn't just add to the absurdity of the situation.

Yeah it won’t happen. It’s not just Fury, it’s AJ too. They’re both too nervous of losing for this fight to happen.
I'm not a fan of AJ but I think he wants this fight and seems his team are trying everything to make it happen.

I honestly believe that is one thing you cannot accuse AJ of to be honest. Its all down to cash and people wanting their cut, buying time until they can fill a stadium.

The joke about this is you just know it will go 7 - 8 rounds. Farce.
If anyones more likely to duck this fight its AJ. 100%

Bit of a bizaare statement since he’s been begging for the world title unification fight since he beat wlad. Wilder admitted he ducked AJ for fury for less money thinking it was an easier fight. 
as I said it’s about cash and they are buying time.

It's annoying that this is allowed to happen at all, but even more annoying when Mayweather deliberately won't finish the fight within the first minute.

Promoters are leeches, much like footballers agents. The governing bodies seem to have less and less influence as the promoters run the show(and skim the cash).

This weekend being a prime example!
Chisora V Parker £20 PPV, seriously what is riding on this fight? Chisora wins and he goes back to being the best gatekeeper in boxing getting beaten next time he fights a contender as usual. If Parker wins no one will notice as they'll have all fallen into a coma cos the fight will be a stinker!
It's a perfect Saturday fight night card on sky sports but they've decided to push their luck and sucker a few in while the pubs a still mostly shut.

I’m looking forward to the Taylor fight more than the main event
same jonas will give her a good scrap
Wow they really think that two journeymen heavyweights is PPV worthy. I'd rather watch Jonas vs Taylor but not for £20. Radio 5 live it is then.
Undercards ok but I agree. If you're gonna have PPV for every fight then why not change the pricing? Why is it automatically £20
You know I didn't notice that but you're bang on.
