Comments Thread For: Usyk Promoter Says Fury Rejected Proposal of 60/40 Split With Winner Taking 60

[Combat Talk Radio]

Usyk is not the B side. You should take off your purple Fury glasses.

Fury is the lineal champion. That MAKES him the A-Side.

Fury is the lineal champion. That MAKES him the A-Side.

Usyk is a greater fighter than Tyson Fury currently right now on achievements.

At every single level of the sport to date 'Usyk has achieved more than Fury'.

Tyson Fury is not the A-side to the extent people are trying to make out.

Why is Fury the lineal Champion? Because he beat Wladimir Kiltschko?

Anthony Joshua has also beaten Wladimir Kiltschko 'And knocked him out, in the greatest Heavyweight title fight of the past 2 decades'.

Yes that is right and Usyk has beaten Anthony Joshua twice back to back.

Usyk has won a Olympic Title, Undisputed Cruiser-weight title, and he currently holds 3 World Championship belts at Heavyweight.

Usyk is also the Ring Magazine Champion. So as you can see, Usyk is not quite the B-side like people are trying to claim.

Fury's only claim to being the aside is what? That he sold out a stadium in the UK? That is UK boxing for you 'You are aware that most the people that attend those fights are there to sing songs and do whatever' And those same so called fans switch up real quick mate.

I am not claiming that Usyk is the A-side. And I am stating that his fight is not entirely as clear 'If you was to ask any boxing purist who the A-side was, they would have to tell you that in the pure competitive sense it is a 50/50 fight'.

Now if people were to ask me, what I think this fight should be made at 'What is acceptable'. It is a 50-50 fight, but if one fighter was going to make a demand to get more 'That fighter is most likely Tyson Fury'. Like I could understand why he would demand more, but that is about it.

My reasoning for this has nothing to do with economics 'It is purely on the fact that Tyson Fury has the two best wins in the Heavyweight Division' and this fight is happening in the Heavyweight Division.

But Fury is not at the level were he can just dictate and make demands towards a fighter of Usyk's level and achievement 'Because statistically and pound for pound to date, Usyk is a greater fighter than Fury'.

So really it is pretty much a 50-50 fight.

November 2018 - Usyk is already undisputed cruiserweight champion and knocks out Britain's second biggest star Tony Bellew

August 2018 - Tyson Fury fights Pianeta on Carl Framptons undercard.


Don't let anybody fool you that Fury is the superstar here.

interesting comment made recently that fury wants more money than it is available for both fighters in the pot. which suggest this fight might not even happen this year until Fury beat Chisora ... 4? And Usyk take care of 2 of his mandatories, may be after that and tons of trahstalking from fury, saudi will put money on the table
