    It doesn’t matter who the bigger draw is , Fury is pricing himself out and the 70/30 split I said he’d ask for is official, so go kick rocks as usual because your in another world way out in left field ,you haven’t a clue what’s what on here and are on a completely different topic as always that no one’s even talking about . Lol

      Before anyone will pay fat money to see Fury vs Usyk. Usyk has to beat someone not name AJ. Usyk has no name in the states. His team will not put him in with Ruiz or Wilder. Fury doesn't need Usyk. I think a Fury vs Ruiz would make as much or more money.

        Usyk must not be small and old enough. Maybe next year or soon after, when Usyk is 37-38.

          I really thought this fight was in the bag, how naive i was? I thought after Usyk recovers from Josh fight and Fury finishes fighting chisora and whyte, voila? It was that simple as far as i was concerned. I was looking far ahead and thinking who fury and usyk will fight after they beat up on each other first. THinking Usyk will likely fight Wilder if Usyk beats fury. And Fury will fight Josh if he beats Usyk?

              what happens if usyk offers to take 40% and a better percentage if he wins and there is a rematch, that seems like a good option & maybe it should have been used by now

                As a fan of both fighters, for a man who likes to live a simple life, Tyson sure does liek to price himself out of a fight. Usyk done what the british boxing public have wanted Fury to do for years and fight Joshua, not once but twice. Whilst Fury has fought a fighter tailor made for him. Albeit one with a big punch, but probably the least technically gifted heavyweight in the higher ranks. The more this drags on the more I believe Tyson is genuinely worried about facing an actual boxer with the tools to frustrate him. Just a shame Usyk isn't 3 inches and 35 lbs heavier or else he would walk this division

                  A 60-40 split with the winner taking the lion share isn't right, because the bigger drawing power is Fury, hands down. I can't believe that Usyk's promoter is saying a fight in Wimbley Stadium can't produce enough money to satisfy Tyson. The place will be packed with 90K screaming, chanting fans!
