    Fury is a greedy lying joke. I'm now 100% backing whoever he faces next to knock his canister into orbit.

    I hope Team Usyk accept the 70/30 just to show Fury's bluff. And if Fury does choose to fight, he now deserves a proper ass whooping. Simple as that.

    The self proclaimed depression ridden Fury absolutely dropped at that exact moment.

    How is a man that has been on the frontlines meant to be scared of a drug abusing, loud mouthed moron.

    Usyk knows he has Fury’s number, and so does Fury.

    Fury still likes to reminisce about his victory over the toughest challenge of his career, Steve Cunningham. He knows full well that the elite, much more skilled Usyk isn’t one to play with.

    Basically this, Fury claims it's easy work, take the 60/40 for the winner and be on your way into the sunset.

    Ridiculous this fight hasn't been made yet.

    He did

    He's clearly very worried about climbing into a ring with Usyk. I don't think anyone could argue otherwise now. I knew that ages ago though.

    I've long been one of Belly's biggest fans on here. Sure Usyk is my favourite and therefore higher up on the pecking order than him but if Usyk was the one pulling all this crap and doing his utmost to ensure we never get to see this amazing fight I'd be in Belly's corner.

    I have said it here time and time again, Fury is not a representation of a world champion in Boxing.

    Even his fans are turning against him now, and probably at this point his own people.

    At this rate he will probably need to be adopted by Romanian gypsy’s because he definitely isn’t a fighter like the majority of travellers we come across here in the UK.

    What's really indicative is the gradual drop-off of pro-Belly posters defending their idol. The numbers are dwindling and some of those who were very vocal at the start of this process haven't said a word in the last week or so. And those who are still defending him are saying less and less. The tone has changed too; from mocking humour shouted down from the high ground to somewhat serious barbs bellowed up from the trenches.

    Belly flop...

    There is only so much money for this fight and Fury had an expectation of what he should be paid. Fury wanted $500 million when the Saudi deal was on the table. Maybe he was half joking, but maybe he is half serious.

    When the Saudis pulled out due to Fury's greed, the pot became smaller. Fury was not happy about the potential pot, so he wanted to take a lion's share of the pot to get closer to what he think he deserves.

    The problem isn't the split. The problem is Fury's greed.

    Hearn basically sums it up.

    • PED cheat
    • Lost to John McDermott
    • Avoided a rematch with the man he won the world title from
    • Recreational drug user
    • Went life and death with Otto Wallin
    • Only notable win in the last 5 years is against Deontay Wilder
    • Cancelled negotiations with Joshua in their first arrangement to rematch Wilder - even though he was aware it was a waste of time negotiating
    • Priced himself out of a match with Anthony Joshua following his win over Wilder
    • Calls out Usyk and drags his name for no reason other than arrogance
    • Ducks Usyk via truly laughable diva requests
    Anything I’m missing?

    Of course JJ would take that. JJ has done nothing of note as a pro and has ZERO pull to negotiate anything different.
