    Our day to day life is like that.... I have siblings that chase money and success and that is priority nr 1... Comes at cost to family... Relationships etc.... In this case Fury has been greedy at cost to legacy and fans....

    Usyk on the other side has done the opposite and at financial cost has shown character... Importance of legacy... Gained fans and trying to help his country....

    IF it happens Fury gains money.... But he has lost everywhere else in this deal....

    Ahhh ok. Damn I thought that was his response after Usyk’s now legendary “Greedy Belly” 70/30 agreement video. Lol :D

    I would love to see the look on Fury’s face when he first found out Usyk accepted the offer. I’d bet money there was a hint of “Ohhh ****” to his expression

    Usyk backs Fury into a corner and exposes him for the coward he is.

    Usyk stops a tired Fury late with a flurry of punches on the ropes. A reluctant ref will wave it off after John Fury throws the towel in.

    Usyk is a happy go lucky funny guy and has a good heart, BUT… he’s not one to insult and get personal with. Fury made a mistake doing that. We will see the best Usyk yet.

    I'll believe it when the first press conference comes off.

    Fury wins by decision.

    Hoping Usyk wins though.

    had the same process of reasoning as you. i think i better understand usyk now. his behavior lately has given me some insight into the type of man he is. i think hes got a hard on for fury now. i think hes got his own ''whats my name'' episode planned for fury. and hes got what it takes to see it through.

    Yep agreed. He’s that one ‘Nice Guy’ we’ve all known who if pushed and the right buttons pushed… has another side that’s the complete opposite.

    As the old saying goes… “When a nice guy finally loses all his patience… The devil shivers” :D

    Cury is going to do exactly this…he’ll jab and keep him out of range, when Usyk does get inside Fury is going to tie him up, lean on him, and just run out the clock. Rinse and repeat, this isn’t a difficult fight relatively speaking. It’ll be a brutal fight to watch but it will be evident by the 7th round why size and reach matter in boxing.

    Not really, he didn’t have a choice…fight Dubois for 3 million or Fury for 30 million. It’s always about the money, it’s prize fighting, it’s always about the money.

    Wow didn't expect he'd accept such one sided terms. But props to Usyk, shows once again he's the real deal, a fearless warrior who cares more about legacy than adding another 0 to his already large bank balance.

    Fury on the other hand has exposed himself as just another primadonna type who looks to leverage everything to his favour. No doubt he'll get his pick of ref and judges, choice on rings size and all the usual gubbins that risk/reward business orientated fighters demand in their contracts.

    So between the warrior and the businessman, I know who I will be rooting for.

    Tell that to Wilder who kept taking lower paying fights than facing Joshua for years.

    Y’all act like Usyk isn’t taking this fight to make more than he’s made in his entire career up to this point. I don’t agree with the split necessarily but it ain’t like Usyk is fighting for free, he’ll make 35-40 million vs 2-4 million for Dubios. It’s always about the money for prize fighters.
