    And if he keeps fighting Chisora he'll remain undefeated.

    No, but they said they wasn't getting a better offer from Wembley, so it was a very good offer. It's from Saudi at the end of the day. And Usyk team accepted the offer. Fury team backed up. And this is twice already.

    If money is the issue, it’ll be because Fury wants more than whatever the Saudis paid Joshua I think.

    Fury isn’t as big commercially as Joshua, despite being the better fighter, so he won’t get such an offer. Hearn alluded to this a few days ago, and I think he’s right on this.

    On principle, it seems pretty obvious it should be an even split. But commercially it’s not realistic because Fury has a bigger profile than Usyk. It’s annoying, but that’s how modern boxing is.

    If it isn’t announced over the weekend, I agree it looks unlikely for April. I am holding out hope that it’s going to be announced at the Paul - Fury fight.

    You was trying to say something, but at the end say nothing at all .... As far as the alts goes, it's up to you to and Fury fangirls with alts acc, like miniq, who is long time ignored.

    And what you are trying to say with this quotes bud ? There is like 50 quotes from Fury, who is blatantly lying and say he will take this or that fight for no money, like the AJ fight, Usyk fight and so on. Or like he will gift his fight fee for X or Y organization, but at the end it was just for cloud and a blatant lie.
    Usyk on the other hand is a well known good person and have done tons of stuffs for his country. Literally was ready to buy the TV rights for AJ 2, so he can let his people watch it for free, which happen actually, though Saudi give it to him for free.

    And the quote from Usyk is pretty much he is ready to fight for no PRIZE MONEY, but in the sense that just goes and fight without money on the table, aka for both parties. Aka ready to fight him anywhere, without b.c. politics for free. Fury clearly doesn't want to fight, even at 50-50.

    You are saying you are not caring about Fury, yet you are defending him religiously every single day. Yep you are full of s***, just like your hero.

    A true person would have no bias and say it how it is, that Fury is full of **** and it's clearly ducking the fight.
    I mean no matter how you trying to spin it, the ones that are delaying the fight, and it's lying for a long time it's Fury. His action speaks volume.

    And who are mocking me, some biased Fury fangirls, cause i'm owning them every single time? Like the guy who was in a ban bet and literally say he will leave the forum for good if Fury was going to fight Chisora, and then act like nothing happen ?

    I have ignored most of Fury trolls. Cause there is no point arguing with people that are so biased, they will call everything, just to fit their narrative.

    Also nice try again, this is my first thread, and i have pretty much not posted for the last 1-2 months at all.

    Ah, just like you love gives quotes of others, enjoy:

    Earlier this summer, Fury (32-0-1, 23 KOs) claimed the only way he would come out of retirement is for a $500 million purse. Now, in a drastic shift, Fury claimed on Wednesday that he'll step inside the ropes again only for a bout with rival Anthony Joshua in the United Kingdom -- for free.

    Joshua's only sold about 7000 tickets so far. They should have done it in the copper box :stirrpot

    But didn't Fury fans explained how fair 60-40 was for Fury vs AJ, cause Fury has a belt, no matter that AJ is literally a lot bigger draw than Fury ???
    So why you are making an U-turn now, and trying to claim it otherwise?
    Fury is not selling this fight, Usyk is not selling the fight, what selling this fight is the Undisputed and that both are undefeated. Even if Fury or Usyk name is not there, and Undisputed is on the line, the fight will still sell big time.
    So there is no way that either side can demand more than 50%. They can do it, but that's it's pure greed and wanting to get out of the fight, aka this is a clear DUCK!

    Every stadium in the world will be SOLD for Undisputed, so where the fights end doesn't matter, cause everyone will get tickets for Undisputed fight with 2 undefeated fighters, no matter if Fury's name is on it or not.

    Again what sells this fight is the UNDISPUTED, all titles on the line + the 2x zeros of both fighters.

    Usyk is an established fighter, and his name is already big enough, especially after the AJ wins, and especially in the UK, where he have multiple matches, all of them selling extremely well, and also better than every Fury fight he ever had in UK.

    So the Fury is the bigger draw, just ain't working here.

    Not even going to read it, I know your cheap and unintelligent repertoire. The point is just to provoke you to prove yourself how low and pathetic you can go, Usyk-attracted troll.

    I stopped reading after you accused me of doing a "u turn". If you read it properly, you'll see my post doesn't take sides. Just gives my take on what I think might be going on.

    Have another read, and see if you're able to reply without trying to make everything into an argument.

    All this talk about Saudi, Interesting that Deontay Wilder has just turned up there. Obviously big fan of Paul or young Tommy

    The fight is not a PPV, but if it was, would still probably outsell every Fury fight out there. It's pretty funny that Fury and his fans have such a complex of AJ. Always needs to bring him into the conversation.
    Again the revenue from tickets is nothing compare to the PPV revenue, and everyone knows that.
    When AJ was selling full stadium in UK, which he was one of the first to do it, Fury was weighting 200kg. and was in depression of being ban for steroids.
    Again the important factors are the numbers and records, and every number/records in the PPV sale have AJ name all over, and Fury name is nowhere to be seen.

    I was generalizing Fury fans, who all claimed that 60-40 was a fair split, for Fury vs AJ, cause Fury had a belt. Wasn't you claiming the same, h?
    But now 180 U turn, even though Usyk actually had 3 belts over the Fatty.

    Let me correct you
    Nice try though, could be legit, if 6 months ago, AJ didn't land in top 5 UK PPV with AJ - Usyk 2, sold 1,249,000m.

    Where Fury vs Chisora couldn't even sold 300k, and Frank has to go out and lying to his best buddies of talksports that they sell around 500k., like anyone was going to believe that.; D

    Cool trolly. I gave you plenty of chances, cause you were from my country, but you end up as other Fury fangirls, where you belong, right on my ignore list.
    Gratz.
