Sherdog Boxing: The Weekly Wrap

The news that everyone feared after Tyson Fury signed his deal with ESPN came true this week, when it was confirmed that Tyson Fury’s next fight would not be a rematch with Deontay Wilder. Supposedly, Arum’s offer to Wilder made is so that Wilder would have had to fight multiple times on ESPN, which “The Bronze Bomber” was unwilling to do. Fury insinuated that he was robbed against Wilder because the fight was on Showtime, which added to the idea that the fight would need to be on ESPN or it wasn’t going to happen.
