Comments Thread For: Fury: Usyk, You And Your Team Are Worth 30 Percent; You Either Take It Or Leave It

No he would have to face Dubois then Hrgovic if the Fury fight don’t happen next. It is Usyk who is making unreasonable demands. How many of the sold out stadium in the UK are there see Usyk? How many Ukrainians flying in to watch Usyk? He wants 60/40 for the winner. He has no fanbase so he can’t make any demands. I want this fight to happen but unless Usyk’s team comes to grips with the fact that Fury is the A side in the UK this fight may fall apart.

I know Usyk has mandatories but sometimes sanctioning bodies will let you make a voluntary defense first. Just saying I think next big payday beyond fury is wilder. I just fury on twitter saying from TV is moment on he is going to lower Usyk offer by 1%. Is fury out of his mind ??? Forget fan base Usyk has 3 belts and best Joshua twice . I do think fury would best him but if fury is so confident 60/40 to the winner seems awfully fair .Fury is the A-side but he is being ridiculous and it’s not a good look. It attitudes like that why the biggest fights in boxing aren’t being made. Doesn’t fury want it for Legacy? For his fans ? For his family? Thank god for Garcia/ Davis. Others could learn from them.

On reflection, you're probably right.

Personally I think 60/40 in favour of the winner is an excellent proposition and an agreement on that basis shows confidence.

Lmao what kind of nonsense is that? 60% to the winner? Floyd mike Tyson Lennox ODLH trinidad hopkins no fighter has ever fought under such a ridiculous contract. Fury’s response to that was foh 70/30 minus 1% a day. Usyk deserves 40%. I think everyone would agree to that. Everyone BUT usyk and his camp. They haven’t gone below 50/50 as a negotiation tactic in the press. Usyk camp next response is “60/40 winner take 60” all in the press lol. That’s not how u negotiate a fight. Fury has a big fight with joyce coming either way. who’s usyk gonna fight? Dubois? No one cares about that fight and it’s a fight that he might lose. They should negotiate for a fair 40% behind closed doors and get it done. Usyk ain’t getting 50% tho he don’t deserve it just cause he’s from Ukraine and Ukraine is at war and people are sympathetic to that

BREAKING NEWS Usyk just accepted the 70/30 split. W/hat willl Fury do now??????

'Furious Kingsize Gypsy' doesn't want this fight. It was obvious long time ago. Nothing has changed since then. He just cannot be excited about this fight: there is no glory if he beats 'the rabbit', but there is also no HOF if he loose... Well, with only Wilder and no revanche to Klitcho on his record there is no HOF anyway.

Now that Usyk accepted the terms, waiting for Fury to re-acquire COVID or sprain his wrist. No way Fury will be ready for 29 April,

Embarrassing.

Fury does himself no favours in these situations and it seems he actually thinks he sounds good when he does it.

As soon as Ngannou became a free agent, i knew this fight wen't from being in trouble to dead in the water.
Hope I'm wrong, time will tell.
