The WBC-ordered Tyson-Fury vs Dillion White Heavyweight Championships could not be more appropriately described as a twist and turn, because the two sides could not reach an agreement due to differences in remuneration. The latest news shows that the WBC has made a decision to require the Fury and White teams to conduct a public bid, but the public bid may be more unfavorable to White, because the WBC agreed to the game to be contested at an 80-20 honorarium ratio, which means that if the bid is successful, White can only get a pitiful 20% share, which is far from his previous request.
According to chris McKenna, a columnist for the British "Daily Star", the public bidding time is scheduled for the 11th of next month, depending on whether the two sides can reach an agreement.
The WBC said it agreed to an 80-20 payout ratio for the Furry and White battles, largely because of the money the boxers on both sides have made in recent matches.
In October this year, Fury once again defeated Deonte Wilder in three battles, ushering in a new peak in his career. According to common sense, Fury should next confront White, who is the WBC Transition Boxer and Force Challenger. However, the WBC initially said that due to the legal dispute between White and WBC, it would not approve him to force a challenge to Fury, but this month WBC changed its attitude and agreed to White's duel with Fury while implementing arbitration, but in the subsequent negotiations, White and Fury teams refused to give in, making the contest deadlock again. At first, the WBC said that if the free negotiations failed, they would not arrange for the two sides to conduct a public bidding, because white and WBC had a legal dispute, but to this day, the WBC still hopes that this contest will be staged early, otherwise they will not ask for a public bidding.
In the initial free negotiations, the Fury team offered an 80-20 honorarium share offer, which was opposed by White, who wanted to divide the honorarium at 55-45, and the two sides quarreled. In the end, Fury's co-promoter Bob Arum gave in slightly, willing to contribute to the war with a 75-25 honorarium, but White still disagreed, so that the negotiations broke up.
WBC President Mauricio Suleiman commented on the public bidding of Fury, White, saying: "It was a frustrating process, but we made a ruling, this is the situation now, why can't we do any more work?" I am happy because I am hopeful about achieving my goals. ”
The advantage of the public bidding for White is that at least it will not completely lose the opportunity to challenge Fury, but the disadvantages are more, because the WBC has agreed to negotiate between the two sides towards the 80-20 honorarium component, before Arum made an offer of $5.5 million to White, which is said to be calculated according to the proportion of 25%, I am afraid that if the public bidding is held, White will not get this amount, which may lead to the fact that because the honorarium is too low, he really does not want to fight with Fury, but White is certainly reluctant, after all these years, Don't want to give up easily.
White had demanded $10 million during the free negotiations, which is also said to be the meaning of the promoter Eddie Hearn, who calculated it according to the 55-45 share ratio. With the next public bidding, Hearn is likely to be overwhelmed to give up, and Fury will certainly not be satisfied. Although Hearn has always been rich, what is the concept of $10 million? This means that Hearn will have to come up with more than $50 million, I'm afraid he won't do it, after all, how much money can be made in the battle between Furie and White is unknown, what if he loses? For boxing fans, it is to wait for the results of the public bidding on the 11th of next month, and the general analysis believes that White is likely to take the trick hard, but the amount of the honorarium is definitely very different from the expectations.
