So, Saudi is "rumored" to pay Usyk-Whyte $25m? And AJ was asking for $20m to step aside, so is Saudi putting up $45m for a Dillian Whyte fight? If they wanted Whyte so bad, why not put that much money for a Fury-Whyte fight? And what happened to Joshua wanting his belts back so bad? Is he going to duck an immediate Usyk fight?
Suppose all this is true and Eddie can move away from Warren and the WBC, what are they gonna do when Joyce and Dubois come knocking with their mandatory positions? Aren't they going to have to deal with Frank again?
Lol....good job sniffing out the BS.
This is just siliness. Rival promoters often plant fake "news leaks" to disrupt ticket sales and sap public confidence that a scheduled event will take place. That's the lawless business of boxing.
Another true rumour going round is Vitali coming back to fight Wilder in New Zealand
That's total bullshit and completely untrue, someone made that up - Vitali is planning on fighting Sylvester Stallone. On the moon.
Rumor: Usyk vs Whyte in Saudi Arabia with AJ step aside. This option is being explored and likely to make more vs Usyk than fury fight.

There has to be something going on. Hearn and whyte are too silent
Taylor Serrano presser today, so a Hearn interview or two will probably drop tonight
Entirely possible depending on how much the Saudi’s put up
not unreasonable they would pay the £10m to Whyte that he wants. Then he gets his title shot, no more dealing with the WBC and he makes more than the 20% he gets for the Fury fight
Then AJ gets out of the Usyk fight, which it seems he and Eddie are desperate to at this point.
Seems ideal all round for Eddie, AJ and Whyte at least

So Whyte makes more but Usyk makes much less than fighting a guy he already beat? Makes no sense.
It's being funded by Saudi, usyk might be making more with a bigger split.
