It seems daft. But he's still got to negotiate the VADA and BBBOC investigations so will be interesting to see what they say.

They'll surely reject those explanations but boxing can be a corrupt place at times.

The big one tonight.
Two undefeated fighters on PPV. 

The mighty Fury (Tommy) vs. the global sensation Jake 'The problem child' Paul.

I will actually watch it as I am intrigued to see  who gets their mouth shut as they have both been talking the talk.
Obviously will be watching on dodgy!

If it's true Fury is getting paid 7M for this, then he is 100% taking a dive.

Paul vs. Fury. Good to see Fury win it but was such a bad fight. And the unfortunate thing is it seems Paul is going to go again. 

Fury was a little bit better but he never going to to be a top fighter and showed it again last night he made very hard work of the win.

Anybody expecting anything different needs their head read.

No way I would have paid for it but decent entertainment on the dodgy box on a Sunday night overall. 

Badou Jack fight before it was actually very good.

Fury might as well take the rematch. He’s miles off challenging for an actual belt and on last nights evidence, will probably never get there. Easy money for him.

That's the biggest fight Fury will ever win. Influencer boxing is his level.

How one of the judges scored the fight to Paul I will never know! 

One of the main reasons I barely watch boxing anymore, corrupt to the core.

It reminds of the incident where Mick McCarthy (back in his playing days) raced the journalist to prove he was faster. He won the race but it doesnt look great that he even entertained the idea.

Looked up Fury's opponents so far and wikipedia doesn't even know who they are. Nice earner for him though. "Celebrity" boxing seems to be the way forward.

Both are celebrity boxers and this scrap just proved it to me. Never watched either live or paid to and never will.

Katie fight off for May 20th or at least not against Serrano due to injury to Serrano.

Probably a good thing. Could push for that big stadium fight in September and maybe do more of an easier fight for the May 20th card in The Point. Assume they will still go ahead with it as he previously said they have that dated committed for DAZN.

Should still be able to sell out both if they get the fight cards right.
