Comments Thread For: WBA Prez: Fury-Usyk Reach Tentative Deal, Ask For Time To Work On Contracts

[juggernaut666]

For once, I don't think it was Warren who was the problem here.

No it was Fury . That doesn’t mean Warren isnt going to take Furys instructions and deliberately faulter a contract , he did do that in the Joshua negotiations because they had agreed a fight with Chisora while using Joshua as the promotion . Lol

Warren has a different relationship with Fury and is petrified of him so whatever moves he makes he makes sure Tyson gives the O.K , if Fury doesn’t want a fight you can bet Warren will make sure it’s not placed on him and will be somehow placed on someone else’s fault .


I expect this fight not to happen at least in April and drag on ,Furys facial expression of someone being pestered and annoyed in getting a 70% of the split fir undisputed says it all . It’ll be lucky to come together at all if Fury can’t keep it together .

It's the biggest ,undisputed , heavyweight title fight since Lewis v Holyfield that has just been agreed by both camps and this seems to have upset some so called 'boxing fans' , I think that about sums them up.....!

Usyk is a real fighter.

Team Usyk should just fall back, and then make better terms in the rematch clause! Fury is in the driver's seat here. Usyk should just remain focused on becoming "Undisputed!"

Thoughts on undercard? Dubois injured, Yarde has already fought, Joyce and Heaney have fight dates. Ball? McCann? Heffron? Adeleye? Cacace?

Then what is he

No he's right - at least as the way the term is rightly understood in the UK. Journeymen are the guys who fight all over the country week in week out basically to fill out small cards and provide a test for up and comers without being expected to win. Thery're an essential part of the sport and it actually takes a fair bit of competence to do what they do because in order to make it a living they got to make sure they don't get busted up too bad or else they can't fight the following week. Also promoters won't keep using them if they start beating the prospects they ain't suppossed to - they're suppossed to give the impression of a solid fight, not to actually win.

That ain't what Chisora is.....

Fury is a bigger diva than AJ ever was.

Fury is a bigger diva than AJ ever was.

And that's saying something. At least AJ fought Usyk without too much hesitation. These "negotiations" have been going on for months!

Usyk is the real deal. Fury wants as much doe as possible because he knows he could well lose. His toughest fight. A guy who knows how to box, Wilder is exciting and a huge puncher but the guy has no basic boxing skills. Usyk has phenomenal boxing skills. the size could well be a problem as fury is a great boxer and a beast. the purse split should be 50/50 but admire usyk in taking a cut
