Comments Thread For: Report: Fury-Usyk Targeted For February, Super Bowl Weekend, In Middle East; 50-50 Purse Split 'Is A Given'

Airing on Super Bowl weekend is a terrible terrible idea as it won’t get any coverage then, they should do it for a week after Super Bowl and have ads running during the Super Bowl.

These big fights should be accessible to the real fans and not the Middle East , we all get the money but this is a bad turn for our sport!

They are accessible it's called TV. Do you really think a fight between a Ukrainian and a Brit deserves to be in the United States? Fury already had a trilogy with Wilder here and it seems he's not allowed in the states. The Middle East is neutral ground that allows for both fanbases to come and support considering their proximity. People need to stop complaining and remember that the W in WBA/WBC/WBO stands for WORLD. The I in IBF stands for International.

I didn't know the Super Bowl was a worldwide event that would detract from a match up that would take place the day prior with 2 foreign nationals.

Usyk has more belts, and Fury can't get much without Usyk.

Exactly. Who's gonna pay for Fury/AJ now? Anyone else?

Yeah Americans lol it's gaining popularity in other countries but not to the point where they are going to fill in the masses.

Prefer no Saudi - but 1 vs 2. Let’s gooooo!

Don’t get too excited. These terms will be quashed by Fury. The way he talks about this fight, he’s either deluded as to how much he’s worth, or he plainly doesn’t want that smoke. Either way, there’s a long road ahead before we get this fight.

I'm not hating, it should be in Vegas. The place will be packed anyway and they have accommodations. The place was built for it, not some tent out in the bushes.
