Comments Thread For: Usyk Promoter Responds to Fury's Demands: This Is Sports; Go to Hollywood If You Want That Kind of Money

[bullydean]

Didn't Usyk say he would fight the free the other week? 40% shouldn't be an issue for him.

Exactly. You can't blame one side.

Tyson Fury only wants more money so he has more to donate to charity. He handed over his Wilder purse from one of their fights, will do the same with Usyk. He doesn't need money, he's a fighting man doing it for the people. He offered to fight Joshua for nothing on free to air TV in England for the fans, but Joshua and Earn with Hearn didn't want a bar of it. Nash out

Very little of what we read on the Internet is actually true. Tyson Fury is a fighting man, no doubt, but he fights for money like everyone else. So much so that he may well ruin the Usyk fight over a few bucks.

I agree to a certain extent. Usyk most likely did better numbers bc Joshua was on the other side for 2 of those fights and Joshua is a bigger draw than Fury. Regardless, if Warren did make those comments and this does fall thru, they're gonna take a ton a heat for not standing by their word. Nothing new as these promoters backtrack all the time, but most are probably gonna put the blame on them and accuse them of ducking. That's when the real pressure will be put on.

Anyone fighting Joshua will do the better numbers that’s not debatable.

Frank Warren used the same exact logic when Fury fought Wilder while Whyte fought Povetkin included those fights and crunched the numbers up leaving Whyte with about 12% of the split if I remember correctly ? Lol

But Usyk has multiple belts now and has a legit following fan base and grew enormously after the Joshua fights ,we don’t know what he dies because he’s not fought as the unified champion outside Joshua, we do know Fury needs U.K dust ups to attract a sell out of stadiums which means he cannot box anywhere and be a big draw . There is only one man stopping this fight that’s Fury .

yeah right, if he did that he would have a photo with a big cheque on it and that goofy smile handing it over to the charity guy

You didn't detect the sarcasm in my post, Smash. I love Fury, but I don't believe he gave a bean to charity, never mind his fight purse. Nash out

He wants money to sign autographs, giving a reasonable amount to charity is a big step for him having to dig in his pockets . Maybe Fury feels he was short changed on the autograph end and took it out on the charity donation he never went through with as revenge while John Fury shouts everyone is against us ?

Fury shouldn't have mentioned the charity donation as he dug himself a hole there and people, rightly so, have called him out on it. I know people can say he doesn't have to prove it, but in that case, he should not have brought it up. Once you have blurted it out to the world, and it's not an anonymous/private donation kind of thing, then you have to go though with it and prove it. No doubt in Nash's mind that Fury donated 0. Nash is a massive Fury fan, but Nash calls it as Nash sees it. Nash out

I guarantee that Fury hasn't given a single penny to charity his entire life lol
