Comments Thread For: John Fury Believes Usyk Will Turn Attention To Wilder, Give Dubois a Step-Aside Fee

[peplz]

Why did usyk ask for 70-30 in the rematch? That was the deal breaker. I can’t understand how people don’t see that as a clear duck. He was alllll on Twitter saying he agreed as long fight was April 29th. Fury agreed then they added 70-30 rematch and funny how he didn’t go allll on Twitter and say that. Clear duck by usyk but in the end who cares. It’s an easy fight for fury. Joyce vs Tyson is the best match up to make at HW that one is gonna be Britain’s biggest HW fight of all time not AJ vs fury

You must really love Tyson Fury

Tyson Fury is waaaaay more talk than fight. I have never witnessed a fighter be so eager to turn down fights but have frivolous rematches at the same time. And in general, this new trend of fighters negotiating for rematches before they have even fought the first time is the ******est thing thats ever happened in the sport.

I think Usyk vs Wilder would be a hell of a fight.

Hopefully they do pay Dubois a step aside fee so it can happen.

"It has been bizarre, but I had a sneaky feeling this was going to happen because of the Saudi situation. They are good friends with Usyk and I believe they have signed up with Deontay Wilder," John Fury told Metro.co.uk.

Usyk vs. Wilder? I'm all about that!!! Let's Get It!!!

[SN!PER]

Dangerous fight for Deontay.

If he lands a bomb early, he'll probably hurt Usyk and then finish him off.

But on the other hand, if Usyk has him swinging at air all night, Deontay could gas out in the second half and Usyk could do a lot of damage.

Fury, AJ, Usyk, Wilder any two of them fighting each other would be good (except Wilder-Fury which we have seen). If not, add Ruiz and Joyce to the mix and that would be interesting too. Anything other than this may be just OK but not something I am looking forward to.

I hope to see at least one of them this year.

I don't think he gases out unless he comes in weighting 230+. However, Usyk can make him look silly for the whole night. The danger would always be can Deontay be right for 2 secs out of those 12 rounds?

Fury goes 6 to midnight about fighting Joshua. It will happen next if Joshua beats Franklin at the weekend. He knows who's still the biggest draw in the division even without a belt.

As far as I know, Usyk asked for 70:30 for the winner of the first fight, not for himself. If Usyk had won the first fight, that would have made him undisputed champion - but still he would then only have got 50% against the then title-less Fury in the rematch? How crazy is that?

Usyk was right to go. One humiliation (70:30 for Fury in the first fight) is one thing, but letting yourself be humiliated twice is a different story.

I mean this is clear evidence of a duck from Fury, not Usyk. The request was for 70 to the winner. So Fury is explicitly saying "you're only worth 30 as the unified undefeated champion, but as a defeated contender, you'll be worth 50." If he actually thought he'd win, 70-30 is better for him anyways, because he'd get 70 in both fights. So Fury's turning down 70 in fight 2 and wanting only 50, but calling Usyk greedy for wanting to give him more money. He's running scared. There's no other explanation. He'd get 140 of 200 Usyk's way, and only 120 with his own request, assuming he wins the first fight. The only way Usyk makes more is if Usyk wins. So if Fury thinks he'll beat the "middleweight" why isn't he jumping at 70 to the winner? Fury fans either suck at math or logic or both.
