I think Fury vs Usyk is done for March

[kafkod]

Reminder: Usyk faked an injury to duck Fury last December, and then turned down 20 million to fight him in April thinking he was going to get big money this December, when questioned, Usyk's chicken farmer manager said this;

I don't think you even believe that nonsense yourself. When Usyk vs Fury was first announced as a done deal last year, Bob Arum said there were 2 possible dates in mind, one in December and one in February, with February being the most likely.

Usyk then said that he definitely wouldn't be fighting again till after Xmas, because he wanted to rest up from the AJ fight and had various commitments in Ukraine to fulfil. Fury immediately jumped on that, demanding that Usyk fight him in December or not at all. That was just Fury doing what he always does with Usyk - making himself as awkward and difficult to deal with as he possibly can.

In January it was announced that Usyk had accepted a deal to fight Fury in Saudi, date tba. It never happened and we found out why from the Skills Challenge director of boxing - one of the fighters wanted more money than the fight would generate for both of them.

You know who it was that priced himself out as well as I do.

Skills Challenge is finished.

What went south with Skills Challenge? Admittedly I thought it was weird when Badou Jack's manager was a big part of it cuz that mfer always had a used car salesman vibe to me.

I don`t believe it.

Fury never takes tough fights.

Dude was trying to fight Wlad forever & eventually did. Dude fought Deontay directly after being massively out of shape & again after Deontay dropped dude nasty in the last rd.

I'm telling ya'll, this fight is gonna happen in March.

Copp ain't the best guy to use to confirm your speculation. That mfer is wrong more than anyone in paid mainstream boxing media lol.

That said I've been saying this fight will happen myself its just a matter of the Saudi mfers lining up the date & pulling out the $$$. Those guys are going hard on sports washing right now & that fight is one of the big fights to make & they got past connections with both.

There does seem to be a lot of talk that Fury vs Usyk is a done deal.

Yes and he also run like a rat from Wlad rematch.

He fought Wilder the first time because it was for the belt. When he found out how much Wilder ****** , he had no problem fighting him twice more.

You are really naive if you expect Fury to fight Usyk, Joshua, Zhang, Ruiz, whoever.

I don`t blame Fury for doing what he is doing, but he should be stripped by WBC.

Sounds like dude had a lot of mental health problems to me more than he ran. And watching his Netflix show he does seem legit off.

You have problems too maybe if you think I said anything about all those guys. Idk who all he will or won't fight in the future tbf. I do feel like Fury vs Usyk happens next year. I also look forward to all the reasons Tyson is "finally fighting him" when it gets announced & all the reasons Usyk lost after he loses tho I do admit.

Why would they strip Tyson? He's not avoiding any mando or anything.

Coppinger gets stuff wrong, but he also gets a lot of stuff right.

Not sure, I guess they got fed of skills challenge wasting money on losers like Chisora and AJ

Why would Fury come out and say he has no interest in fighting Usyk if this was really a done deal? I know Fury just says things regardless if it's true or not but I just find that a weird approach to take for your so called "done deal next opponent."
