    If this fight doesn’t get made because Fury wants more than 50%, he’s ducking Usyk. There is a ton of money to be made. I hope these guys get it done. If it’s close, we will probably see a rematch or two. Two great technical boxers and great personalities. I’m hoping it’s in the US for selfish reasons. Anywhere but the Middle East.

    Where are you going to find the missing 5% then?

    50/50

    Fury is a bigger draw and the true lineal champion but Usyk owns 3/4 of the belts.

    Don't you teach maths? How are you getting 50/50 from 95?

    You can give 65-35 only and i say only if Usyk doesn't have the biggest share of the title, which is actually the important part, because we are looking at the history of Undisputed.
    Usyk fans can say the same. From a business perspective Fury have just 1 title, Usyk have 3.

    Didn't the big horse want £500m to fight Joshua a few months ago?

    No he said he'd fight Joshua for free

    but Usyk will probably cost 500m because he's 500 million times better than AJ

    I do teach maths.

    They should split it 50/50.

    The belts aren't business. Business is how many PPV buys they shift and how much revenue they generate from ticket sales.

    I'm not going to argue the case though because I think they both deserve 50%.

    What viewers is Fury bringing exactly? Where is the viewers in the Whyte fight ? What was the numbers i'm listening? They were so s**** they didn't even dare to announce it.

    Usyk have done 1,232m against AJ1
    1.059m against Chisora
    And 600k against Bellew
    For example Chisora vs Parker did 145k and Whyte vs Chisora 2 did just 438k.

    Usyk was not a big name, h ? He is huge, especially after the War. Whole Europe is watching him. Whole World. And he got the World recognition by beating the MAN in the division - AJ.


    And Fury is not allowed to the US, at least till now. In UK he did did sell the stadium against Whyte, but AJ is doing that constantly, and Fury number vs Whyte was obviously big pile of ******.

    Fury actually needed Wilder, who is American to do a decent numbers, because he was utter garbage before that.
    He become a star after beating Wilder.
    Usyk has done the same, and it's the SUPERSTAR NOW !!!


    Also if the fight is in Saudi, does people even realize that the numbers they make are irrelevant, because Saudi are giving fixed amount and they will get everything from the right and from tickets ?
    So how much gypsy Fury brings is irrelevant. But some people obviously are wearing their head for decoration.
