    Is he still losing fans after agreeing the Usk deal?

    I'm not a fan of him so to speak but I'm gonna tune in to see it

    Look how he acted at the press conference though. He acted like a insecure bully.

    The comment about Fury’s behaviour being ‘despicable’ was a bit ott imo.
    Fury was being Fury, I didn’t think he was being overly aggressive. I can get how people would find his act a bit cringe but despicable was a poor choice of word imo.

    The way he acted in the press conference with Usyk was disgusting.
    He is a complete twat.

    I bet everyone in boxing that isn't part of Fury's team wants him to get beat.

    This 100%

    At one point he was an absolutely brilliant boxer but he's losing a bit of edge now and I think deep down he knows it. He's definitely always known that Usyk is a potential nightmare that will ask questions of him that nobody else ever has.

    That's without getting started on John Fury.
    His comments about bending Jake Paul's Mrs over in the ring and ****ing her like a dog were shameful.

    The maniac Dad has a hell of a lot to answer for it seems. But he could actually know his son better than anyone else. One things for certain, the dads DUCK of Mickey Theo was the worst DUCK I’ve ever seen since AJs career long DUCK of Wilder.

    Think the reaction wouldn't be massively over the top of it wasn't usyk who's the opponent.

    Horrible bloke. A drug cheat, a bigot and a bully… with his scumbag of a dad as his sidekick.

    Nah. I used to really like him. What made me, and possibly others hate him too, was ducking Usk over money when he already has tons of cash. Bad for the sport

    It's a brutal and extremely dangerous sport you can't fault him for trying to earn as much as he can.

    It's just the way he handled the entire situation that pissed me off. He owes us fans a massive performance against Usyk now.

    If you already have £300m then you don't need to nit pic about the purse. He's still getting loads and he wouldn't get any less than 50%

    Understandable but it is a bit shallow when he already has over £300m of loot in the bank.

    It is the Box Office Mugs who will pay for it when the price is hiked up.
