    Most likely team Usuk can figure out where they get most money.

    sadly, boxing is a money game. based on what do you consider 25% a low offer? im not even sure Usyk is worth 25% in this case.

    Nobody knows who AJ is here, and if they do it is only because of the L he took to Ruiz. Fury is far more well known in the US, due to his destruction of Wilder.

    Canelo is king of the US though, and it isn't even close.

    Based on the fact he is the best CW since holyfield ?

    I just want my man Usyk to get a fair shake and smash AJ. I just hope the fight doesnt fall through because of some law ball Eddie offer.

    In regards to a rematch clause, Tyson Fury be like "nah dude just sign up and don't worry about it. Fake a broken ankle and then if they still want it, do a lot of blow and talk about killing yourself few times a week publicly."

    They might get enough ppvs if they will place on the same card: Wilder vs Fury and A.J vs Usyk.
    For undercard they might find something really interesting and add also some fight for this YT star, maybe next grappler.
    ;)

    No public interest in this fight. No one outside of hardcore fans know who he is. Lowball? More like Usyk won the lottery. He is being offered a chance at half the belts. Could also be his highest earning.

    Nobody is buying an AJ v usyuk fight to watch usyuk.

    How much do you think usyuk would get fighting Joyce?

    The reality is a fight vs AJ is the biggest payday usyk will ever get.

    There is about zero chance those bouts would be on the same card.

    The only people screaming low ball are Usyk fan. This is more than fair to a guy that brings nothing to the event. The money is about people you put in the seat and people paying to see you on TV. It is not what you think you are worth. Don't take the fight and you will continue to fight the Chisora of the heavy weight.

    Would Usyk be exempt from paying UK taxes if the fight is in Saudi?

    If so then that 20% is gonna be a far better the deal.

    Does Usyk actually have any real skills or does he just hop around like a tweaker getting low-balled by three dollars for a fridge at a scrap yard?

    How long until Canelo moves up to heavyweight and fights AJ?
    And who gets the rematch clause in their favour??

    What's with all this greed? If AJ gets $60-80 million per fight, why can't he offer his challenger atleast $15-20 million?
