    Well he will make more off this fight than the fight with Chisora regardless obv its just a risk vs reward thing and i feel Fury is unsure about Usyk he knows it will be a good fight. I have Fury winning but i do feel he is a little nervous. He's apparently worth 60M + i don't believe all them sites to be realistic but i don't feel it's too far off that's more than enough money.

    He shouldn't throw out statements like "i don't care about money" "i have enough money more than i would ever need" "i'm a fighting man" because he will be held accountable to them words and gives the haters ammunition.

    As i say I'm a big Fury fan but he needs this fight for legacy so if he's willing to slip it away over 5m when he has mega money already then we know what it is.
    Well you shouldn't really believe any of them sites about his "worth" truth is he's as I said grossed roughly $100m but fighters come home with 38% give or take a couple of percent of their purse after taxes,managers,trainers,advisors etc etc so realistically he's earned roughly $38m

    And to retire on an average wage comfortably you want about $1.5M in your retirement pot and that's an average wage not the lifestyle him and his children are use to and he's about 35 years away from retirement age, hence why I said his money isn't as long as people think it is...

    Well we already know what it is, Usyk is the hardest fight of his career and he isn't keen on it, Fury mirco managers his career in a similar manner to Mayweather sadly.

          Its too early for me to predict who wins. I know many think Usyk beats Fury easy, but im sure Fury will do well. Never underestimate fury. Just get fight made.

            Last time a Heavyweight Champ nicknamed his opponent "The Rabbit," it didn't end well for The Rabbit.

              People don't seem to realize that Fury has pulled out of TWO Joshua fights now after talking a lot and boring us senseless. He is just going to talk about fighting Usyk and then will make sure the fight doesn't happen and will put the blame on Usyk

              If you are that good why do you fight only 2 top-10 opponents in 7 years?

              Look at Usyk - he always fights the top guys. He fought AJ within 3 fights of being in the HW division. He already has more belts than Fury

                Wouldn’t be shocked now if this never actually happens and Fury fights Ngannou next.

                  "Only" made 100m. That's pretty rich by most people's standards. I have no issue with people wanting to maximise their earnings or get what they deserve but wanting more when you're already rich does come under the definition of greedy imo.

                    Yes ONLY if he retired today accounting for the tax, managers, trainers. sparing partners etc etc he'd have to make roughly $38m last the rest of his life roughly 46 years (80 years old in UK) whilst also supporting his 6/7 children (Gypsy culture they support the daughters till they're married off) and the lifestyle they're currently used to it's untenable, I don't think some of you realise how little $100M is...

                    I know when you're broke it might seem like a lot but trust me it isn't... as I pointed out in another post just to live relatively comfortable on "average" wage in retirement you have to have $1.5m in your retirement pot and that isn't living it up by any means it's just "comfortable" for 12 years and that's assuming no medical emergency pop up in those 12 years...

                      I'm not trying to argue here but my point is it's more than enough to live on. It's way more than most people live comfortably on so wanting more can be considered greedy imo. Maybe you don't realise how much 100m is to the average person.
