    I can't go below 70/30
    DD is young and has the physical tools, but he doesn't have the stamina or the smarts and I always expect the boxer to do better second time around

    Usyk is 38, but he still has more than enough for Dubouis

    So let me get this straight, Johnny Nelson thinks that Usyk is done, because he lost three rounds to Fury and was robbed of a stoppage victory over him in a match that Johnny Nelson said that he was going to lose in? Who then went on to pretty much dominate him in the rematch, that Nelson was waffling on the outcome of? Yeah.... okay.:lol:

    Of course he's done at an elite level, he's 39 years old! Fortunately for him there's no elite heavyweights in todays division to expose him.

    Yeah, It's kinda worth getting outta bed for...



    Personally speaking, I'd want time and a half if it was a Sunday though...

    Just googled, no wonder Don Charles has been on overdrive, thought it had to do with motivating his fighter but think I get it now :)

    That why it's Wembley, against a home turf fighter, like the entire rest of his career?

    Ok for that kind of money, if I'm Usyk, I keep going until I lose.

    If that is legit, 100% worth dodging Parker for. Seriously man, call me a duck, call me a drug cheat, all water off a duck's back, I am sleeping soundly. Even with a bad loss.

    So Floyd was right to let the manny fight cook and earn 300m instead of 70?

    I don't agree with that fight happening 5 years late, but both guys essentially quadrupled, or at least tripled their pay
