They will push for it to be somewhere stupid like the desert in Saudi Arabia instead of the UK.

What an amazing story.
Never thought we'd see him in a ring again after the post-Klitschko coke binge and now he's serenading a Vegas crowd after defeating the scariest KO merchant Heavyweight boxing has seen in decades. One of boxing's greatest comeback stories.

Yeah no doubt Fury would be favored, but at least Joshua is more skilled than Wilder. I felt like Wilder banked everything on his right hand and Fury wasn't leaving himself open for it. Joshua is big and powerful too, I really think the Ruiz 1 fight was an aberration, I wouldn't count him out completely
Plus, after this beatdown, I don't think there's much to be gained from Wilder-Fury 3, even though I know it's guaranteed. Fury simply can not lose to Wilder imo, he's pretty much 2-0 against him, and now that he's in optimal shape he completely ragdolled Wilder.
So I hope Fury goes for Joshua
This is where I am. I exclaimed out loud when he got knocked out down, then as soon as the camera zoomed in on his ear I was like...oh. Yeah.This shits getting called.
Yep. Props to Fury, but the fight was over at that point. Was really looking forward to a classic after that first matchup. Maybe the 3rd time will be the charm.
Ahh missed that. Then that's good shit from his corner.
It's not lol.
I always hate to see a fighter get injured but that's just, sadly, a part of the game :/ I'm not satisfied mainly because of the stoppage. Should have been stopped earlier.
Wilder said his corner stopped the fight. I thought the ref did too at first
American Pie? I'm English and have sang that many a drunken time with friends. Wouldn't want to speak for everyone though but feels like a good song people know and can sing along to, aye.
Still can't believe DAZN paid one billion for AJ and them. He's about to get knocked the fuck out the second time soon lol
Yeah, AJ is a terrific athlete and he has improved but it would not be pretty, he's always been far too easy to hit.
Lol, I am taking you down with me.
it is true though, Fury gets doubted far too much.

I mean, is knocking somebody out a freak injury too? Calling this a freak injury is implying Fury did not go in there and dominate Wilder. The injury happened because Fury was the aggressor and kept on him. It wasn't something that just happened from a clash of heads or something.
I forgot they had that rematch clause built in, so we'll probably get Fury/Wilder 3. Hope it's in Wembley
Any injury during a fight caused by an opponent' shot is supposed to add to his credit, doesn't detract from the victory.

Fury is a beast lol, expected a longer fight.
Not sure what a 3rd match would accomplish.
Don't think AJ can ignore the $$$$$$$ on the table with a Fury fight. It has to happen sooner or later even if AJ gets his ass kicked (not sure Fury has the motivation to stay in top boxing shape though)

Fury is such an unique beast. He could go down as one of the all time greats in the Heavyweight division.
In the boxing ring, an injury, freak or otherwise, can be caused by the person on the other side of the ring applying his or her boxing acumen, correctly, to defeating effect.
That is what happened tonight.
(And I say this as someone who wanted Wilder to win over Fury).
Well Fury proved me wrong, I guess I should stop doubting him now.
Looks like Wilder has 30 days to activate the rematch clause in the contract.

Holy shit. Fury threw a fairly straight on punch. It's not his fault Wilders technique is so bad he turned his head to take the impact side on. Just stop the excuses Fury has now dismantled him twice. Once over 12 rounds and after realising the corrupt judges will never give him a decision he trained for the knock out. What a man.
I want to see Fury v Joshua next and then win or lose I want to see Joshua vs Wilder. It would be a crime if the 3 big boys didn't fight each other. After the boring domination of the klitchkos boxing is now alive and well.
Fair point...AJ has fought there as a boxer, and Fury has performed for WWE.
That said...Wembley is nailed on for their first fight. There is less likelihood of a rematch as with Wilder v Fury in LA, so they'll want to extract as much value as they can from this fight.
That occurs only in London...and in the summer to maximise supplimental PPV/TV rental -5 and -8 BST.
Pretty sure I saw an ad for betfair saying 30/1 Fury winning. Seemed like a new customer promotion but idk, not a gambling man.
There's always been questions about Wilder though, he has a suspect resume and technically he's all over the shop. There's a massive article somewhere calling him out on it and the people he has ducked too. The thing is his power is undeniable and it has overshadowed all that.
I think if Fury performed the same here as the Wallin fight this would have been another W for Deontay. But how he performed here was nuts, once he was someways into round 1 he was completely comfortable with managing Wilder. Those lunging jabs were doing work and probably felt like someone was pelting bricks at him.
It'll be interesting to see if he keeps going with this style, he looked fairly awkward throwing some of those power punches towards the end.
It was 50/50 with the odds slightly in Wilders favour. I got 5/1 for my Fury KO and made $50. :)
Odds weren't anywhere near that unless they were predicting the exact round. I think Fury by TKO was 4/1 or so.
Gotta hand it to Fury. His gameplan worked out to a tee. Did what he said he was going to do.
Wilder will have to undo the mistake of falling in love with his right hand. It's always been there, but he used to mix it up more. He can't fight Fury the way he fought Ortiz.
