    There is no way this fight happens anywhere but London. King had Witherspoon fight Bruno at Wembley. He won’t pass up the UK money. He might even work with Warren on this one. What I mean is serve up Bryan in London for an envelope full of money from Dubois’ next few fights.

          Why would he say it wasn’t? It has been pointed out in many articles since the IBF mandatory against Pulev. This wasn’t top secret by any means. Pulev was IBF mando & Usyk was WBO. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out the WBA is next…
          Because he's not very bright. He keeps insisting that the WBO will come up again, despite Usyk just getting that mandatory.

              The only way King doesn't take a bath on this is if he has the fight in London, nobody cares about this fight in any other place but Great Britain. Bryan isn't even a household name in Albany let alone any other place in the US.

              King doesn't even have a tv deal in the US to me if the purse was 1/10th the money there wouldn't be much profit in this for him.

                King is another cancer to the sport. He used to put the best cards in boxing for a while but he has been out of the picture because he has been exposed how bad he is to his fighters.

                He likes to keep some form of HW championships or Mando spots secured and then cash out on them one way or another. With the Usyk fiasco now God only knows what he has in mind.

                  He basically gives a very healthy advance to fighters to lure them to him. Like when Vanes Matirosian boxed golovkin, king gave him $300k upfront as signing bonus and advance to cover camp expenses... that was all vanes ever got. Never got a cent after and then he got stung by the taxman asking him to pay tax on the money he never even recieved. He reached out to king saying least you can do is pay the tax on the money that i didnt get, obviously d.k being d.k declined and said not my problem. As much as i wish he went broke a doubt he will. Hes too much of a savage business man to lost the 10s of millions he made robbing boxers blind. Hes over 90 now, when his day finally comes... i shall have lil celebration along with many many others id imagine.

                      The WBO already had its mandatory sorted out ,it is Joyce he is guaranteed the winner of Usyk vs A.J . We know the WBA is going to again be far behind in any title fight in the near future just look at the situation already . Only a postponement has made it possible for the WBA to be maybe next but make no mistake Joyce vs Usyk or A.J would have happened before DDD and these guys would have been proven wrong .
