    He's a perfectly good seller. He's never done below 250K on a PPV. He did over a million 3 times, and over 800k vs Bellew. People like to pretend that that's entirely because of his opponents, but the FACTS are that he's got better PPV buys than any of Gervonta Davis or Errol Spence Jr, who are supposed to be big PPV draws.

    For that matter, I wouldn't be surprised if he actually has better PPV buys than Tyson Fury, who wasn't a draw before the Wilder trilogy, only did 800k for Wilder 2, and 600 each for Wilder 3 and Chisora. Fury failed to sell out T-Mobile Arena before, and apparently only did like 11500 for Ngannou.

    People try really hard to pretend that Usyk is some nobody, but the numbers actually don't support that at all.

      If the Fury vs Usyk fight is postponed by 1-2 months, is this really enough time for Fury to dramatically improve his form 'If he apparently trained for 12 weeks for Ngannou?'.

      The reason why I think Fury's performance vs Ngannou is alarming is because 'Fury did train to a good level. That is why the fight hit team Fury very hard'.

      The notion that Fury would of been playing around in training, when this was potentially the biggest ever media fight he has ever fought in 'Is nonsense'.

      Note: I think the Usyk fight should of been announced already, if the fight is happening? It should be announced within the next coming weeks etc.

        Fury has to rematch a guy with a 1 fight record!!!! On top of that, with Fury's disgrace, every UFC fighter will think they can compete with a world boxing champion! Can't make that sht up!!!!
