This is old news (1 week ago), so maybe it was posted earlier. Couldn't find it in the search so I'll drop it anyway. Apparently Fury is risking a £200 million lawsuit from the Saudis for not sticking to the December date to fight Usyk. But if he doesn't end up getting sued, I wonder if his postponement of the fight date might mean the Saudis won't be willing to pay him the previously agreed amount for Usyk. Because to them, the date was important and the delay has messed up some major plans. So now another possible knock-on effect of that is that if Fury's purse is reduced (lets say hypothetically by half) it might cause Fury to pull out of the fight entirely? Worrying times for this fake undisputed fight between two former champs.
Fury had previously announced he would be fighting Usyk two days before Christmas.
But, since going up against Ngannou, the veteran has sounded less confident that the fight will go ahead.
Should the date have to be changed, then Saudi Arabian chiefs could sue Fury for a massive £200m.
They reportedly have a whole festival planned around the event and know it will be lucrative - as well as beneficial to the country.
However, Usyk's promoter Alex Krassyuk has now given Fury hope of a delay by saying they're open to agreeing to fresh terms.

Fury (and his team) apparently wanted to postpone into January/February - possible training issues, timing, etc.
You and I both know that state-sponsored papers aren't going to post anything until the powers that be decide how they want to handle the situation.
As I said previously, Fury is getting saved because Usyk's team is willing to be flexible on the date, and Ngannou is willing to step into the Dec 23 date.
Do your own research, ya lazy bum.
You're the one who should do research. You're naive and gullible absorbing all these fake news with zero source.
Those are tabloid news.
Give me something from Saudi Gazette or Arab News.

Because they planned an entire 6 month sports festival around it, which kicked off with the Fury - Ngannou fight. When you've spent millions already and someone is screwing up your plans because things didn't go his way in his voluntary fight, you're going to be a little pissed.
I think the main things saving Fury right now are Usyk and Ngannou. Usyk for saying he's flexible on the date, and Ngannou for stepping up to fill the Dec 23 date for them.

fury probably said to the saudi guys yeah ill take care of mma guy, have a couple of weeks off & be back to polish off the little dosser and all before xmas, saudis said ok sounds good
i doubt the saudis are in the business of suing people, frank wouldnt let tyson put himself in a legal position like that knowing the sport of boxing & heavy boxing at times
Where is the news source of the lawsuit? Why would Saudis with so much money to spend on trivial entertainment go to such stupid length?

Lawsuit?
Salman don't play those games, he'll have his posse of goons cut Fury down to size no problem if those gypsies start playing up.
That coke head Fury better be ready for his Christmas pounding :boxing:
Mental health is real, i could have made so much money fighting Usyk in December, but when you're in a low place none of that matters
Funny how his mental health issues come up only after he fucks up, that was truly the best PR stunt.
If the Saudis really want to be a player in boxing they aren’t going to get there suing their fighters. Fury got busted up a little more than he figured he would in his last fight so move the date to February. No harm done. Didn’t Warren say December was kind of a working date?
Ignoring the fact it's a GBN report, it's obviously nonsense.
They can either sue him for breach of contract (if there ever really was one, which feels unlikely) or they can negotiate the date.
It's pretty clear they're going to negotiate the date.
I'm not sure how many gypsies Al-Sheik has dealt with before but I reckon he's going to need his wits about him.
