Comments Thread For: Fury To Usyk: I'm Tired of The 'He Said, She Said' - Why Don't We Just Do This?

[richiechris]

Yeah defo. Kronk fighters have to be respected.... Gerald McClellan, holyfield, Lennox, Julian Jackson.... Fury I don't know what is going on. He just needs to stop talking and sign a contract and then start the yapping. It's like he's trying to hype and sell a fight he isn't fighting

Fury still wants purse split massively his favour. I don't blame usyk from walking away. Disrespectful contractual demands. As soon as one demand met fury brings another one. A nonsense. And I say that actually truly believing fury would win. But I could understand if fury has no belief in himself cause usyk an enigma.

Fury draws out the haters. That's for sure. I think some of the posters here have any mention of his name as an alert on their phones, so they can rush here and bash him.

Usyk got the rematch, but when Fury's team didn't agree to the split, Usyk pulled out and flew to Ukraine. His own promoter said that. I watched Warren read messages from Usyk's manager, and the manager said "this is not your fault or Fury's fault, but Usyk has gone to the Ukraine, the fight isn't going to happen".

Usyk, a favorite fighter of mine, is not a big draw. He isn't a big puncher at HW, he isn't selling a ton of ppv's, his opponent has to sell. The big question for me is...everyone saying Fury asked for ridiculous stuff. Fury didn't want the rematch and then said ok. Why would he agree to a split for Usyk when if he wins, and is the draw in the second fight, he has to fight again for a contenders percentage?

[richiechris]

I agree. Usyk is probably one of the most gifted fighters I've ever seen in terms of ring mentality and skill etc, and no doubt fury is the ppv draw etc. I've argued for years that fury Is an incredibly talented and skillful boxer. Fury sells the fight for sure to the mainstream but how come usyk Vs Joshua gets made twice..... Joshua Vs wilder looks possible but when ever Fury's involved these fights never happen....fury Vs wilder is different. He needed the first fight to boost his rating.....don't get me wrong I think fury beats usyk because of his size. Fury definitely beats Joshua every day of the week. I don't know why as a huge fan these fights with fury don't get made.....I think he's the best fighter of this generation with the only contender to that being usyk

[richiechris]

How do I set up the alert on my phone bro ??
Lol. I'm only messing. Just thought that was quality lol

Fury don’t do rematches ? Chisora was a rematch? Now fury want to fight Usyk because he has no dance partner. Let’s not forget fury wanted 70/30 split for undisputed HW title unification which is crazy in itself regardless of who the A side is then demanded 50/50 in a rematch if he lost the first fight while usyk insisted , and rightfully so if he won the first fight it’s 70/30 split in Usyk favor for the rematch and fury said no so Usyk walked away and I do t blame him.

What?? The Rematch was from Fury's side. They wouldn't allow Usyk to get the better split even if he won the first fight.

If Fury won, the second fight would have been 70/30 again. if Usyk won, they would do 50/50

Usyk is the one who walked away from negotiations and still hasn’t got a fight lined up he’s the one who said rematch or no fight don’t let that ruin the narrative circlejerk though.

Usyk is fighting his mandatory.

Fury booked Wembley for April 29th and is on record saying he is fighting on that date with Warren backing him up on it . Thats his reasons for declining the Saudi deal which we all know was an excuse to get out of that one then had to make one more move at an attempt to offer 30% which also failed so who exactly isn’t lined up to fight bc isn’t Fury asking Frank to find him an opponent and threatening to terminate Arums contract which only helps Bob out ?

Again critical thinking skills is absent here as always . Lol

[Roj]

Has he started to figure out that he isn't bringing in any money if he isn't fighting? And if he makes excessive demands, nobody is going to fight him? The breaking point in the first Usyk negotiations was that if Usyk won the first fight, he would get the bigger percentage in the second. I thought Fury said that beating the middleweight was going to be easy. Why would he be concerned about the split for the second fight? He seemed pretty sure that he was going to win.

Exactly right - well said

[pollywog]

It's a 50/50 fight as to who would win. Why not make the purse 50/50 and the same for a rematch ?...Fairs fair.

50% of something is better than 100% of nothing.
