    If the step aside offer fails Frank said they want Fury to fight an opponent Tyson is happy with early next year, not one mention of Whyte.

    Yeah, Bob Arum was saying that there is no better opponent than Whyte, if Usyk is fighting AJ.

    They are too broke to offer AJ enough money.

    I'm not watching 15+ minutes of Fwank. Was there any mention of what figure they had in mind?

    I love that AJ is being offered step aside money.

    The same man who said it wasn't realistic for Wilder or Fury to get 50% lol.

    Ok, no mention on a figure yet.
    Wonder if they can come up with what Joshua asks. Won't be cheap, and it will be quite a gamble.

    This.

    Fight isn’t commercially big enough to make AJ an offer of £10+ mil

    Can't make sense of this logic.

    The 50% was, if he actually said that, for the purse split, for a fight against Joshua.
    This is step aside money, so how does the 50% relate to that.

    Or is your post just a Joshua bash?

    Can't see Joshua taking the offer. He's probably made more money than Fury and Wilder both combined. So its not about the money.

    Would he want to sit out of title fights for the next year or 2. Who knows what could happen.

    Joshua next fight will be Usyk. If he loses that will probably be the end of him.

    It's a slight chuckle at the irony that the one time superstar A Side is now being paid to step aside whilst the big guns fight each other.

    Seems like it's a no brainer to get paid not to fight and then get the winner of Uysk Fury.

    They need to make AJ - Wilder.

    Winner of that faces winner of Fury - Usyk.


    I would love to watch AJ - Wilder. Lots of big bombs flying!
