    Haha bravo this comment made my day well played

        “For me, the idea would be to fight maybe early February or beginning of March, like 4 March, because I am an orthodox Christian. During the great fasting before Easter I do not fight, so it should be all before or then after orthodox Easter [16 April].”

        Nope. He means Ramadan.
        Ramadan is a holy month for ****** and it lasts 30 days. They will not attend the fight and neither will they pay to have the fight during that month.
        Easter is not even a week

          Lol no doubt now they won’t get It done before Ramadan and Fury will pull the the Muhammad Fury Card and be hiding in a mosque somewhere in Manchester for the rest of the year.

                ok, if that’s what Bob was referring to it means they can’t hold it in the Middle East during Ramadan, and can’t hold it anywhere else during lent (40 days in the run up to Easter rather than Easter itself) as Usyk himself has said he won’t fight during this period… call me cynical, but along with the added Hrgovic complications, this one is starting to look less and less likely…especially in Q1 of 2023.

                  Places in the world holding different views is one thing. The Saudis pushing for a massive oil production cut in order to fuel inflation at a time when the whole world is reeling from a cost of living crisis is another. From where I sit, they are unmitigated cuuuuunts.

                    That's a policy of opec nations, not just Saudi, and I'm talking about religious beliefs and difference's, not economic decisions, yes everyone knows it's wrong to throw g*ys off building's, but that is their ultra conservative culture, I just find it so ****** when ppl spout off on the internet about this stuff when really all there hoping for is a bit of validation from there peers that there a good guy who supports the current thing.. if u support it so much, do something about it rather than talking **** on here which is a boxing forum might I add, go do your g*y lil protests elsewhere cos most cun*s couldn't give a **** where they fight

                      Arum out of touch again , it’s not up to Usyk it’s up to Hrgovic to decide to take the fight or not he’s the one that’s being mandated a fight by the IBF . Team Fury isn’t exactly known for trying to get fighters to step aside either they didn’t do it with Wilder when saying Joshua was next and laughed at the idea of offering step aside money to Wilder then when a report came out Joshua wanted step aside money for Usyk they weren’t doing that either .
