Very feel!

I doubt Fury accepts it at this point.

Seems to be that he doesn’t want it. Hope I’m wrong.

That would be a bltch move. Already Fury was acting like a diva throughout the whole negotiation period.

Fury COVID or injury incoming, hoping to delay the 29 April date, as the lazy bastard hasn't gotten off the sofa yet to train.

they probably both been in training

I think this proves that Usyk is the true bad ass of boxing. Anything to make it happen. Fights in your back yard and accepts low ball offer after beating the other champion twice and cleaning out cruiserweight. Usyk is the man.

[Roadblock]

So listening to this again, Usyk says he'll take it if Fury donates a million pounds immediately after (i.e. publicly in the ring) to the Ukrainian people.

The second part is less clear. I don't know if he wants Fury to agree that every day that he/Fury delays the fight past April 29th, an additional 1% of his purse is donated to the Ukrainian people ... or if he wants Fury to agree that every day that he delays donating that he has to add 1% of his purse.

regardless, the latter is likely for Fury saying he would take off 1% of the offer for every day that Usyk delayed accepting the offer

The second part is probably because Fury said for every day he waits for a 30% acceptance he will take 1% from that offer, Ursk is adding his for every day you delay give 1% to Ukraine or something like that.

It's not happening. Apparently Usyk's promoter has been told that even if Usyk fights for free, they'll still lose money on the purse that Fury is demanding. He's a ducking fraud, and it's crazy that people still defend him and think he's some kind of A-side hero. This is textbook ducking. Make impossible demands. Doesn't work on Usyk clearly. This is the guy who has fought for every title on the road and never ducked anyone. How many big fights has Fury ducked now?

That doesn't mention Ursk on video saying he accepts, obviously, they are not in sync articles, this one doesn't know Ursk has spoken.

Usyk is saying happy with 70/30, as long as Tyson donates £1m to Ukraine + 1% extra every day that he delays accepting this offer.

Shouldn't be a problem in that case. Tyson loves donating his money to charity... Doesn't he?

Doesn't matter. Fury still isn't signing squat, especially not with the demand that he donate to Ukraine. If he is demanding so much that even if Usyk takes a 0/100 split they'll still lose money, he's ducking. You feel free to get your hopes up, but I'm not buying anything that Fury is trying to sell here.

ive been watching fury and cheering him on since the channel 5 days when he was considered a novelty act but he has been coming across awfully recently, the constant contradictions and bull**** seems to be wearing thin with the british public. one day its 'i will fight for free, money doesnt buy me happiness' the next he is acting like a diva. then its the whole mental health advocate act before he posts some vile abuse about someone
