    I have always backed Fury to win this fight but with all the bs I wouldn't blame Usyk walking away

      Oh it is.

      You can dress it up, but ultimately you're happy not to see the fight.

        Why would Usyk do that? Fury is the biggest money fight.

          But like I said, it says a lot about you and other 'boxing fans' who make threads praying fights don't happen and then gloating about it when it doesn't.

          Sad, sad, sad.
          Except I've done no such thing and it's a product of your imagination. It's "sad" you feel the need to create some narrative to explain away disagreement.

            Usyk is not ******. He will wait for Fury for the next 4-5 months.

            If Usyk - Fury doesn`t happen, Usyk fights Hrgovic next.

              Why would I not want to see an undisputed fight? I obviously want to see a massive fight.

              The thread isn't about me. It's about Fury and Usyk. It's my view that there is reasonable doubt that Fury ever gets in that ring. Usyk and his team have said the same.

              There is a point where Usyk should not wait any longer for him. Personally I think it's now. Instead of holding up his own career he should fight his mandatory and then fight Fury. After all, this isn't Usyk's doing... he's been ready for months.

                And since when is Hrgovic only one stay busy fight for Usyk. Usyk could lose this one.

                He won`t risk his biggest pay day.

                Usyk planned his career like this: two Fury fights and than retire, I guess.

                  He might lose. Or he might not. He's a boxer - he'll find out.

                  As for fighting Fury twice - it won't happen. Ask the last two guys who had rematch clauses for Fury. You don't plan the end of your career around Fury.

                  Usyk is taking a big enough gamble waiting for one fight.

                      I don't get all you fury haters carrying on... Man had a chance to fight Ngannou, a novice for bulk cash then fight Usyk (considering if he lost to Usyk previous that Ngannou fight and easy $ would be off) and now he's got a legit cut in sparring, what do you expect him to do? Fight with the cut and get hit and the fights off anyway in the second round? Was good business by the man.
