Comments Thread For: Usyk Promoter on Fury: 'If He's Not [Ready] ... No Money In The World Can Buy His Consent'

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Promoter Alexander Krassyuk hasn't given up hope trying to set up a fight between his charge, Oleksandr Usyk, and the mercurial Tyson Fury. At the same time Krassyuk has a feeling no amount of moolah will convince Fury to get in the same ring with Usyk.

Crazy, on so many levels, to think how many top level boxers do not want (or at least appear to not want) top level, legacy defining fights. This has to happen, right? Everyone has learned from how much Wilder and Joshua lost putting things off, right?

I mean... RIGHT?

Wow usyk's team really thinks they should get 50 percent in the UK against tyson fury? They're out of they're god damn mind! there is a reason uysk has to always travel to his opponents back yard. he doesn't have the backing of a crazy for boxing country the way fury does! This fight needs to happen in saudi arabian that way both guys can be financially satisfied. Otherwise it will never happen.

50-50 in the UK is a ridiculous demand!

Don't be a plonka.

Usyk has signed with the multi billionaire Saudis......so why would they even negotiate with Fury in London for far less money?

"it's 5050" is a polite way of saying shove England when we can each negotiate our own larger purses individually with the camel jockeys.

Fury apparently will be sent a one time offer by skills challenge, take it or leave it, still Fury will probably ruin it counting someone else's money.

It's fake drama to build the fight. The Saudi's offered Fury and Usyk huge money to do the double header there in January. Why do you think Usyk pulled out and Fury went on a rant? It is WWE level buildup BS. Now suddenly the "Saudis are talking about revisiting the mega fight doubleheader".

Yeah no ****. Anyone paying attention knew why the Fury Usyk fight was put in hold.

Uysk has 3 times as many belts as Fury. Usyk just has to wait until Fury gets stripped for avoiding him. Fury clearly doesn't want the fight or he would have taken it already. He is hoping Usyk loses so he doesn't have to fight him.

Remember when Fury said he was training for the Usyk fight and his trainer confirmed that he wasn't? Guy never wanted the fight.

Well said. Greedy Belly is a coward. Ony his sycophantic fans buy his lies.

Fury is scared of usyk because stylistically he's a nightmare for fury. Fury isn't a brawler and outboxes you and he knows he can't outbox usyk
