[LAchargers373]

He’s mad he’s not getting his cut of the usyk fight and won’t in the future cause usyk is now with skills challenge who coincidentally are the ones putting this fight on

He's mad it's not AJ Ngannou which he tried making. But Saudi don't give af bout AJ no more now they want Fury

GROSS!!!!!!!!!
There are decisions I make daily that are not in my best interest, but are in the best interest of others and my profession. In the same freaking breath he just said he took this to AJ and that it is terrible for boxing.
This is like when the Klitschko brothers went to Don King's house and he pretended to play a player piano - how could you want to do business with someone with these morals? When situations occur and he has to make a decision between you and money, what do you think he will choose?

I'm curious to know who is actually going to buy the PPV. Does Fury have any fans left? Are MMA fans going to buy a fight where their guy is obviously going to lose? I'm not even going to bother illegally streaming it.

All this public negativity by promoters and journalist are only promoting the fight for free. Time will only tell if that fight will be a success.

I think you’re missing the point of what Hearn said. He said it’s one thing to make a business decision to fight Ngannou - it’s another to do it and not be honest about it being just a cash grab (which Warren won’t admit). Also, AJ doesn’t hold a title so what would have been the big deal if he’d fought Ngannou? On the other hand Fury is a titleholder but is wasting time and holding his title hostage while turning down legitimate fights to fight Ngannou.

So you think that if Hearn had been able to promote a Joshua - Ngannou fight that he would have been saying "it's okay, it's just a cash grab we're doing here folks!"??
