    ''According to sources, the sides agreed to a bilateral rematch clause that the loser could trigger. Usyk's side pushed for the same 70-30 split, but in his favor, for a return bout in the United Kingdom should he defeat Fury.''

    ''Warren, however, said the sides ironed out all the issues Sunday except for the split of net revenue in the rematch. According to sources, the sides agreed to a bilateral rematch clause that the loser could trigger. Usyk's side pushed for the same 70-30 split, but in his favor, for a return bout in the United Kingdom should he defeat Fury.

    Fury asked for a 50-50 split in the U.K., where he's a major star, if he suffered his first professional defeat, sources said. When Usyk signed to fight Anthony Joshua in September 2021 in London -- a fight he won to capture three heavyweight titles -- the rematch clause that Joshua went on to exercise included a 50-50 split, according to sources.''

    I don't get why Usyk would push for 70/30 rematch

    Usyk does Fury a big favor by accepting the 30% when he deserves 40. Fury may well give him 70% if he wins.

    He had 60-40 for the trilogy against Wilder.

    Usyk's team is really talking, hopefully that's all it is. However, Krassyuk also said that either Dubois or Hrgovic are next for Usyk.

    He now holds 3 of the belts, so no comparison at all. Even so, he's already accepted the 70-30 proposal, so he's conceded more than enough. This A-side, B-side talk is boring as ****. If fight doesn't get made, then this one is on Fury and his team.

    Hrgovich would be a bit sucky. Dubois would be fun, but donkey dubois would look silly in there. AJ Usyk all over again, .....but worse than AJ. :lol:

    Alex Krassyuk going in on Furys ppv numbers on ifl.

    He said Chisora v Usuyk did more ppv buys than Fury v Chisora.

    True, he will be undisputed. But Usyk Undisputed vs Fury in the U.K - they should still have accepted a 50/50 split to get it done.
