Fury just didn't want to give a man who doesn't deserve 70% that percentage win or not i don't blame him Usyk isn't a seller that's why he didn't want the fight without a rematch clause because he knows Fury will bring in the fans not him so he can cash out with that 70% and he doesn't have enough faith in himself to win the first fight so he wants a second roll of the dice going by your standard of belief. As i said before Fury made things overly complicated but Usyk could of got the deal done if he wanted but he wanted that rematch for a reason.
50/50 and no rematch clause was the original deal that Usyk agreed to.
70/30 to Fury was a ridiculous demand that Fury didn't think Usyk would accept. He was trying to price himself out of the fight. Remember, his first response when Usyk did accept it was to go on social media saying that Usyk should sack his manager for agreeing to such a lowball offer?

70 - 30 wasn't a ridiculous demand because Usyk isn't a draw and he will make nowhere near as much vs Dubois 30% is about what Usyk is worth compared to Fury.
Fury is a wind up merchant obviously he's going to say that if you believe everything Fury says you are ****** but some things just make sense in regards to this fight Usyk should of just took the no rematch but why didn't he? Bottom line Usyk pulled the plug.Last edited by Kzbox; 05-29-2023, 05:17 PM.

Top Rank
Loma Haney
Lopez Taylor
Inoue Fulton
PBC
Plant Benavidez
Tank Garcia
Spence Crawford
Those 6 fights are 6 big fights for boxing fans. Fight i im excited for that i was or are hyped for at least 7/10.
Matchrooms not 1 of their fights this year even comes close to those in terms of matching up 2 great fighters and big match ups not one of there fights this year have i even been excited for higher than a 4/10 rating of how excited i would be. Unless im forgetting one but someone remind me. AJ Franklin and Canelo Ryder the biggest? 3/10is how excited i was looking forward to those.
Arum is right he's trash in the US. That is why he named 4 fights, 3 of those Canelos last 3 fights, and the 4th one he named Katie Taylor in NY. Shows how trash his shows have been take out Canelo who fights who he wants when he wants and what netwprk he wants and all he had left to name was the womens card.
Again going forward what fight is there to look forward to from MR that you give a 7/10 at least on hype level that you look forward to? 0 for me.
He tries to downplay Taylor Lopez. Top fight for me lookong forward to it. 2 top fighters. 2 who are also now hated a lot and need to prove themselves. Both ex undisputed (or Teos case robbed off it officially by Loma and WBC franchise ****). Meanwhile he got Catterall who for a year hyped up how he was robbed, yet comes back and fights on a co main not even a main event and fight someone ranked what? Something like 27 or 30 i think it was. Than you got Prograis fighting a journeyman. Taylor is fighting Lopez without a journeyman inbetween. If he had signed Prograis and Catterall and made the fight i would call that a decent fight but na hes put them in with journeyman instead yet wants to downplay Taylor and Lopez as if he wouldn't love to have them. Had Haney for like 6 fights and did barley nothing for him. Went to TR and within 2 opponents he's got undisputed titles and a shot at a highly rated opponent in Loma
He's out here making mediocre match ups and still trying to make Eubank Benn to sell it off as some huge fight, maybe but solely cause of their dads name and now the ped circusLast edited by Boxing 112; 05-29-2023, 06:43 PM.DClefthook likes this.

Here's another perspective for you Fury believed in himself so much he thinks he will do a demolition job on Usyk so there will be no interest/intrigue for a 2nd fight so he will be locked into a fight with a no draw Usyk when there is no need when he could go on to fight AJ for the real money.
70 - 30 wasn't a ridiculous demand because Usyk isn't a draw and he will make nowhere near as much vs Dubois 30% is about what Usyk is worth compared to Fury.

Lololololol
You Fury Fan boys are hilarious
Btw
Tyson Fury himself admitted that Usyk should fire his manager for accepting such a low offer
No World Champion ever would accept a 70/30 offer to fight to be an undisputed Championshipkafkod likes this.

And please, cut the nonsense about Fury wanting to get rid of the rematch clause so he could move straight on to a fight with AJ. You are bending over backwards trying to make up excuses for the guy!
If Fury wanted to fight Usyk just once, then move straight on to AJ, why the fuck did he ask for a rematch clause in the first place? And why did he only start talking about getting rid of it after Usyk refused to give him the rematch terms he was asking for?

But Usyk and his team were smarter and more confident of winning than Fury thought. Their 70/30 to the winner in a rematch proposal was more than fair and I think the confidence they showed in asking for it shook Fury. And clearly, he wasn't that confident himself, or he would have accepted it.
