    Referee will get there first

    People should understand a guard won't save you from a heavyweight punch. They'll blow right through it.

    Usyk gets clipped heavy then he's going to be in a tough situation with a british ref licking his lips ready to jump in

    Tough thing about AJ is he keeps his punches straight, if Usyk can't see him looking for that right hand it's a bad night.

    He is going to do what Loma did to Lopez, try to draw him on early. If AJ is smart like Lopez he won't take the bait, stick to the jab.

    Ah, he'd already set his mind to those sweet $50,000 paydays. Got it. ;)

    No, he's a heavyweight who went down to cruiserweight until he couldn't make the weight anymore and moved up.

    Usyk fought the World Series of Boxing against big heavyweights. And he turned pro as a heavyweight. Then he moved down.

    And there could be a million reasons for that, the first being he didn't think he could beat the top heavyweights. The second being it was too difficult fighting guys who outweighed him by a lot.

    The third being it was easier. They pay was less at cruiser, but it was far easier.

    That's all. I don't blame him for it. But I'm not going to call him "brave" now.

    I don't know from where you had get these numbers.
    You might post here what you wish and copy- paste some mass media sources here as you wish.
    Like they are some kind of promoter's contracts.

    Yeah, sometimes someone lists part of warranted purse or money he had get after all expenses: camp, prom and managers, agents %, tax had been paid out.

    Maybe he had fought vs Glowacki for 50 k before all mentioned here had been paid out?
    Ha ha ha, some 50 k he might get from ad deals even he never had been turned into a pro.

    Yeah, I do know how delusional are people in US about CW purses in europe ( for you they maybe are " eurobums " ) because in US cruiserweight is treated as " puny and bummy nothing " and paid very low.

    US based boxers like Dorticos and Perez had opted to fight in europe, Dorticos and Tabiti even in Russia.
    Most likely cos in US cruiser is not important: fat ppl in armchairs are yelling : it is not heavyweight.
    A lot of these yelling ppl are more fat than Ruiz Jr and morbidly obese, they just think: if somoene is with 7% fat and weights 200 lbs he automatically is beatable by fat obese 260 lbers in cubicles with 40-50-55% bodyfat.

    It is what this is and maybe therefore US cruiserweight Cunningham too had opted to fight in europe and he had get his world title in europe.


    Continue to insist that he get from event's promoter for fight vs Huck and Glowacki these 50 and 75 k before all expenses had been paid off.

    WBO world title fights in CW usually in europe starts with 150 k EUR.
    Yeah, they rarely are x xxx xxx digits sums, this is correct.

    I've said it once and I'll say it again. Parker is a poor man's Usyk. And that was my rationale in predicting AJ would be unable to KO Usyk.

    It was never gonna happen. Usyk was supremely confident, and when such a one-off technical wizard is that confident of victory it's time to bet your money on him.

    You are delusional with your murican websites.
    sportekz is dreamers website. :):nonono

    At first, some supposedly reported fighters purses are not all fighters income.
    Sometimes not even all purse.
    Not alone other income sources. :D

    Next, muricans most likely are CW purses experts: therefore Tabiti, MVP boxer from US had fought even in Russia. :p:D

    I do know that you believe in websites like sportekz and other murican bull****.

    Usyk is brave for ditching HW and facing a division stacked with talent. Absolutely.

    You asked for the link. I provided it. Then you begin ranting about US websites.

    A simple 'thank you' would have sufficed.

    Going to bed now. Enjoy your nonsensical ranting in an empty room.
