    Fury has been talking about Jon Jones and AJ. I guess he is trying to get Usyk to agree to less than the 70/30 he already agreed to.

    Only downside is having the fight in Saudi Arabia. Having the fight in England would be a tremendous crowd atmosphere.

    NYC or Vegas would make for a better environment as well.
    There's no percentages in Saudi, each individual negotiates their own price.

    Watch the recent interviews with Turki Alalshikh & Shane Fury, they are dropping some big hints

      Why did Fury ask for 70/30?

      Furys ESPN interview last week was a bit embarrassing. Jon Jones. Lmfao.

      It felt like Stephen A. was asked not to mention Usyk. Weird given ESPN just showed the Usyk fight presumably to set up the unification.

      Again I will just assume it a negotiation ploy in behalf of Bob and Fury. Maybe he takes the AJ cash grab before Usyk.

        Fury has apparently just signed a 200 million deal with them, and Usyk was seen meeting with Turki Alalshikh last week.

        Fury vs Ngannou has been booked to open Riyadh season, and i think that Fury vs Usyk will close Riyadh season in March.

        This is why Joshua vs Wilder is dead, that money is going to Tyson and Usyk.
        Denium you gone and done it now - the alphabet boy community will be out in force hitting you with their handbags hehehehe lol.

        Shieeeeeeeeeetttttttttttttt Tyson Fury signed a $200 MILLION deal? What's Wilder getting? peanuttttssssss hahahahahahahaha lol.

        Fury vs Usyk needs to take place at the 68,000 capacity King Fahd International Stadium in Saudi.

          70/30 was for a fight in the UK.

          Fury is playing the pantomine villain like he's done plenty of time in the past.

          I'll be honest, I've gone off Fury with all his recent antics, I don't really care who wins the fight

            I wonder if the saudis actually will ever get a return back on their investment or they just like throwing money away to see some big fights.

                Arum said Fury-Usyk is next, straight up.

                There was no if the money is right, Usyk is boring, or w/e some guys will attach as preemptive excuses for fights they don’t really fancy.

                  I know I’m supposed to care about this fight but I really don’t.

                    What did i say all year whilst most were getting excited for dec or claiming wilder aj will happen fury usyk won't. Wilder aj was never happening funny af how a lot of you fell for it with nothing even close to official or certain just lies. Fury usyk will happen like ive said all along. Wilder aj is the one that will not.

                      I doubt. I think Fury is done. Wilder and Ruiz will probably fight for vacant WBC belt.
