Comments Thread For: Usyk Not Backing Away From WBO Shot, Has Not Given Consent For Fury-Joshua

[James Hunt]

This is just a charade for the public. AJ will fight Usyk next.

[REDEEMER]

It's foolish. The further away from the Ruiz fight Joshua is the more confident he'd be. Usyk is a better fighter than AJ but not looking like the force he was a CW. They should have gotten him out of the way.

“I’m not in a hurry, let them fight. I would be happy to fight Chisora or somebody else.,” said Usyk to Matchroom Boxing.

Team Usyk wanted the Chisora fight over A.J .

Usyk’s manager Egis Klimas when asked about the progress of the negotiations with Chisora for February. “Yes, that’s a fight that we would like, yes.”


That quote was after he defeated Witherspoon so Hearn once again is not involved here. It wasn’t him who said they aren’t in a rush to fight A.J that was directly Usyk . Ha

NOBODY wants to see usyk vs AJ.

i do
obv not before aj vs fury, but i want to see that
i also want to se usyk vs whyte, usyk vs wilder, whyte vs wilder, usyk vs ruiz etc etc..i want to see everyone fight everyone

Just take the Usyk fight already or pay him a step aside he can’t refuse. It’s really that simple. Joshua Fury makes so much money they can afford to overpay Usyk just to get this done.

The only issue I can see is the risk of Joshua losing to Usyk and the steam it would take off of Fury fight which honestly I could see happening. Usyk didn’t look like undisputed Usyk in his last fight. But Joshua post Ruiz 1 doesn’t look the same either. I have the fight 55/45 in Joshuas favor only due to the size and power difference. AJ is chinny and his gas tank is suspect. I think Usyk hits hard enough, moves enough and throws enough to pull off the upset.

Hopefully everyone stops d:cking around and get this show on the road

I know we all have the right to our own opinion, but statistically Fury's chin is way more suspected than AJ's for he has been put his back by more opponents, even by a cruiserweight, than AJ. It's to be seen how much remains in his tank when his body is properly worked by a heavy puncher like AJ. A terrible upset is waiting for Fury's fans.

Drop the belt, WBO is the last most credible belt out of the WBC/WBA/IBF anyways!

We want Fury vs Joshua if no Fury vs Wilder 3

Money talks BS walks!!

AJ v Fury will happen (as long as both want it) with or WITHOUT Usyk's consent.
Anything else is just noise!!!

[_Rexy_]

WBO can grant Joshua an exemption to enable unification if they want. With a contractual obligation for the next mandatory.

Not once the mandatory has been called, which happened months ago. Plus, AJ/Fury want a 2 fight deal, so how would that work?

That's not how this works...

I meant b4 undisputed. I still feel usyk should be fighting other mid to upper level fighters b4 he was gifted a mando

[DaNeutral.]

Well if Usyk wants his shot then Usyk wants his shot, literally everybody else would prefer the Fury fight but Usyk isn't British and isn't here to pander for the British public.

Though him and his management are not ******, the more stubborn he is the more generous step aside deal he will be offered. Could well just be a money play.

We should all offer our thanks to Rexy for bringing salt and wrong statistics to the thread again in his usual attempt to pour scorn on Joshua and Hearn.

How was he gifted the shot? WBO grants mandatory status to champs when they move up. Happens all the time. People only have a problem with it now.
