    Fury is the draw and the HW champion of the world. Nobody outside of the hardcore Boxing community knows who Usyk is. 70-30 is proper.

      Just cut it down the middle, get the fight signed, and the winner will get the lion's share in the rematch.

        Course he doesn't, I think 40 percent would be generous to him.

          In terms of prestige, that's the order. Fury has more prestigious belt and popularity. 60/40 is ideal. Only low IQs cry about that.
          Singular.....
          Britney Spears is popular, too.

          Usyk has the more respected resume.

              Usyk obviously deserves 50%. Fury's last fight wasn't a sell out and and the last two ppvs tanked. He needs a good dance partner to sell on tv well. As for fury fans trying to say that usyk is greedy, I thought fury read a fighting man who would fight for free? His words, not mine.

              I am (was?) a fan of fury but I'm rapidly going off him.

              Look at Usyk's run, he certainly doesn't appear to be difficult to get fights done:

              Joshua in England and then Saudi Arabia
              Bellew and Chisora in England
              Gassiev in Russia
              Briedis in Latvia
              Glowacki in Poland
              Huck in Germany
              Hunter in the USA

                Usyk also said he doesn’t care about the money and he only wants the Fury fight ect if you gonna be critical be consistent at the end of the day Usyk has gone a bit greedy apparently Arum is the one not accepting the 50/50 not Fury.

                Fury is a lot more popular and brings in more money than Usyk thats facts and we know bums on seats is what makes money, whats Usyks biggest PPV without AJ?

                People have been fooled by the goofy image of Usyk I’m very feel ect and seem to think the guy is the real deal i don’t buy it. Im glad its getting rid of all the fake Fury fans though.

                  From a business perspective, absolutely not. Usyk should take 40%, it's still more than he'll earn against anyone else.

                    Of course Usyk deserves 50%, he's the unified champion bringing his three belts to fight in his opponent's back yard.

                    This fight is about bringing all the belts together and crowning an undisputed champion, it's bigger than any one name.

                      Just give the man 50% and winner takes a bigger slice of the pie in the rematch.
