Hall of Fame promoter Frank Warren floated the idea of a trillion dollar promotional deal for WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury when his current deal expires in two fights. “What Tyson Fury has done for not just boxing, but British sport in general is nothing short of out of this world,” Warren said. “He could be awarded a trillion dollar contract tomorrow and be worth every penny…the biggest character in boxing deserves the biggest contract. It’s as simple as that.”
The current record boxing contract is Canelo Alvarez’ five-year, 11-fight deal with DAZN for $365 million. The 31-year-old Fury has indicted lately that he could keep boxing until he is 40.
I guess Fury can fight till he his 40 years old as he has indicated. However, I really question his true focus on staying in shape and not imploding the next 7 years of his fighting career. The fact is that we all know Fury has had bumps in the road with personal issues and boxing the same time. I do wish him luck with his endeavors, but I worry boxing will get boring to him and money will be his only driving force to do it. Once the passion is gone, it’s hard keep afloat in a sport where folks are always seeking to take you down.
I agree, plus, after Deontay and AJ who else will the fans be excited for?
Billion maybe? Trillion might be alot 🙂
I like the look of Efe Ajagba in his last fight.
Fury is boring. It wouldnt be a good idea to give Fury a lot of money. The guy is also less stable than Tyson was.
One thumb up and 8 thumbs down. I think most would disagree with you. If you hate him you’ll be biased. Like people that say Mayweather wasn’t that good. I don’t like Mayweather as a person but he is one of the GOATs.
Fury battered the alleged baddest man on the planet to a pulp in his last outing. Before that he nearly lost an eye before that he fought an unbeaten fighter with his hands down and slipped punches like no man at his size has ever done – before that he did an undertaker impression after getting hit with a shot that would kill a bull. Before that he was a fat alcoholic.. boring he ain’t…. Reminds me of Maximus – what more must I do to entertain you savages.
Build a time machine and beat some better fighters.
I’ve engaged Elon Musk and he was was already one step ahead. He was in negotiations with Bruce Lee to come into 2020 and Fight Connor McGregor on NYE – I know that this is a boxing forum really but McG v Lee would destroy every PPV in history combined…. while he’s there he might as well ask Ron Lyle to come too as it would be a fun match up V Fury – Ron is happy just to get a trip in a time machine doesn’t even care If he gets paid.
Hey, I was a skeptic at first. Then second fight with Chisora and I started to question my judgement. We have an all time great here even if it ends tomorrow. I own my errors
LAME. Fury wont last 2 years!
So Bill Gates, Soros, Rothschild and the Monarch can’t get there but Frank Warren can? Hahahahaha ha!!
This must be a joke. This is like paying a Royce-Royce or Aston Martin price for a Yugo, then expecting it to perform like a Royce-Royce or Aston Martin. Fury is pathetic, and no amount of loudmouth hype can distract from that.
I always enjoy working with British fight promoters but this is another example of the hot air and bluster that they love to inject into the world. He won’t make a hundred million dollars much less a billion, or a trillion. go back to bed
Warren is going crazy
He is talking rubbish
Let fury first fight whyte
It is about boxing not money
The only decent fighter he has fought since he is back is wilder.
