Purse splits for Brit’s rematch vs Deontay Wilder and trilogy

  Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder will split the purse for their highly-anticipated rematch 50-50 with terms already in place for a trilogy fight afterwards. 
 The WBC world heavyweight champion knocked down the Brit in the 12th round to salvage a draw last year.

  And Bob Arum has revealed the pair will share the revenue evenly when they meet again on February 22 – with Fury required to get past Otto Wallin on Saturday and the American pencilled in to put his belt on the line in another rematch against Luis Ortiz beforehand. While the winner of the rematch will gain a majority share for a third fight between the pair to finally settle their rivalry.

  “It’s a signed deal,” Arum said. “Not only is it a signed deal for a second fight between the two best heavyweights in the world.
“The winner of the fight for a third fight, which is already signed, gets 60 per cent of everything and the loser 40 per cent.
