    WHY DOES NOBODY EVER suggest 60:60?

    There's no official post on any of Krassyuk's or Usyk's profiles (Instagram or Twitter) about that, we learn it from a third person. How legit could it be?

    Usyk was sticking to 50:50, no matter if he loses or wins. Now he agrees on 40 if he loses, but makes it look like a cool offer - well, it isn't really. And correct me if I am wrong, but this isn't the practice in boxing.

    As for the judges and the referee concern at Wembley, if both ever agree to a fight, they can make it as Fury and Wilder in their second and third fight: chose them.

    Im a huge Fury fan, TRULY love him. But this is a clear duck by him and to think otherwise is delusional.

    Frampton does make a bit of point there about dodgy decisions, particularly in the UK.
    Funnily enough, Fury actually could get robbed in the UK. He was shunned by big media coming up, enemy of the state for a while and Usyk is hero of Ukraine, where the Anglo governments are fuelling the war.
    The English judge also gave Fury the worst scores in Wilder I.
    This fight is likely to go to points.

    Fury should give him 50/50, but Usyk would be a fool to turn down 40/60 and maybe the lion's share of a rematch if that was the final offer. He won't get a fight like this again, or money like this again. He used up the AJ fights and Wilder won't be as big.

    Why exactly does Usyk deserve more than 40% here? No one knows him. I'm with Fury here.

    All true.

    Another point is that one of the British judges gave the theoretical clear B-side Whyte 2 rounds(!) of the 5 completed and another gave him 1, in a fight where the overwhelming consensus score was 50-45 Fury. He's mentioned that the British judge robbed him against Wilder 1, so he knows he isn't likely to get any favours from British officials.

    That's what we call Game Set & Match.

    Absolutely no rebuttal to this it just makes Fury look like a hypocrite.

    And that's it really atleast your a Fury fan and admits to it. You should never have a biased view, and put up with BS no matter if you like a fighter or not. If a fighter is pulling some BS call him out on it whether you like him or not it's the fair thing to do, and it means your a proper fan of the sport and not just a nuthugger.

    75:25 in favour of Usyk based on the number of belts each has.

    To be honest I don't care. Just fight.

    It really was shocking how royally screwed over Whyte was on that purse by team Fury and the WBC.

    Fury as the winner got 82%
    Whyte as the loser got 18%

    Outrageous, bordering on criminal

    Whyte only got paid $7.4 million(!) for his outstanding performance, criminal! My heart bleeds!

    Whyte didn't really deserve much considering his level and how poorly he performed. But still got more than Usyk in his first fight against Joshua which is a shame.
