Wiil Usyk drop a belt to avoid Hrgovic?

[N/A]

Usyk had to wait a year for AJ to decide if he was going to drop the WBO belt, then had to wait another ****ing year for AJ to force us a useless rematch. Prior to that he was fighting 2-3 times a year

Usyk always has excuses in others. But it took him one year to move up to the heavyweight division, fighting a total bag like Chazz. Then one more year to fight some ageing average fighter like Chisora, then one more to face AJ, while eventually waiting on him, he didn't consider to have a fight as a champion of four belts. And one year after the second AJ fight, he finally had another one. Come on, four years of excuses for poor activity?

Wtf are you talking about? He was supposed to defend his belts while waiting on damaged AJ to decide on a date for the rematch?

No. Whatever...

[SN!PER]

Usyk will expose Hrgovic as another unprepared contender who built a resume from fighting bums and old men.

I don't need to hear your life story to know that you are clearly biased in your opinion.





Those are quotes from the same interview in August 2022. A 50/50 split with the location still to be decided, most likely the Middle East OR the UK. Do you understand that? Nowhere was Warren (or anyone else from Fury's team) saying these were the terms for a Saudi fight only. Saudi was NOT decided upon as the location at this point, it was merely a possibility.

In fact a 50/50 split would not even make sense in the context you're suggesting because the Saudis don't operate in purse splits, they make separate deals individually with each party. So to say that a 50/50 split only applied to a Saudi deal is demonstrably incorrect.





There.



False on all counts.

As I showed above, the 50/50 split was agreed upon before the location of the fight was decided. Warren even mentioned Wembley Stadium specifically as being a possibility.

You did say it was a split, and it was--because Saudi Arabia was NOT the sole possible location being discussed.

So you think a 50/50 split in this case means they both get paid the exact same amount of money for a fight in Saudi? No, that isn't how it works. The Saudis negotiate with each party privately and agree their own separate deals. What one man earns has nothing to do with the other. That's per Bob Arum.

Well, in that case with the new facts presented here I stand corrected and concede that if 50/50 was agreed upon regardless of location and also that a deal was turned down by Fury with the Saudi's then Fury is more so to blame than Usyk for then moving the goalpost on that down the line.

So I withdraw my position that they are equally to blame.

That said, Usyk did his fair share of game playing and presented his own obstacles during these negotiations, that goes without saying. Now the context of that does now possibly change, as I wasn't aware that those two substantial events had happened previously by team Fury, meaning perhaps they were fed up of the games and decided to play their own in response.
