Strip Usyk of his belts. He’s too inactive.

    He beat the bodybuilder Fury has been ducking since 2018. He was so scared of this bodybuilder that he went to fight the mighty Tom Schwarz instead, lol.

    Who's double account are you, btw?

    I would have thought Ex army Jim could empathize there's an invasion of his home country right now and cut a little slack.

    Fury screwed him out of a fight that was suppose to take place in April. He is fighting DuBois next month. Get off your bull**** high horse.

    Hahaha. Didn't he have a bit of a war to go to? He was the WBO mandatory, so he's not got a mandatory for them for a while. He's announced his next fight against his WBA mandatory for August. The IBF are next on the rotation for mandatory defenses, so they'll likely enforce the winner to negotiate with hrgovic within 90 days of the fight ending.
    If this December thing does go ahead in Saudi though, the IBF would normally allow a unification to take priority as long as their challenger is guaranteed to be next in line. That'll also avoid hrgovic demanding step aside money. Under the IBF rules, if a mandatory challenger steps aside they are lowered in the rankings. He hasn't fought for nearly a year though and hasn't got a fight signed, so chances are he'll be removed from the rankings by then anyway.

    Wilder isn't in a mandatory spot though. If he faced wilder the WBA would strip him to elevate dubois. That's the end of the undisputed fight for another 30 years

    What a silly comment. All you saw was him in photos. If you hadn't seen those, you'd probably be saying he wasn't even there. Forget what you see in the movies, a lot of the time war is abstract boredom with very few short periods of "action". Obviously there are exceptions to that.
    Ukraine at the time had called men up to their army to mobilise them all over the country. Is your idea of war one where every single soldier gets sent to the same front line the moment they sign up?
    Imagine what having the likes of him and loma even being involved would do for the morale of the people in the Ukraine.
    Do you actually know what vitali klitchko's job is? Or the well documented involvement he has had since the start of the conflict?

    Oh, yeah - what a smart comment! We don't know what they are doing, but only you know it. Maybe the movie dramas had bad influence over you.

    You say he enlisted just to be bored of no activity in a way.

    He took a break after Joshua, had to go to Ukraine probably to get the political officers off his back and avoid harsher conscription, Fury wasted a lot of time and that brings us to around now. So I don't see what the issue is.
    Nobody deserves the fight with him besides Fury anyway, from an achievement standpoint.
    Hopefully he doesn't fight anyone until that fight or just retires before age catches up and some second-rate fighter gets a prestigious upset win.

    The only other fight that means anything is Wilder and that's because if he could beat Wilder, then he would take that unique win away from Fury and might pressure Fury to make the fight as he would now look like the second best to most people.

    The champions can afford it, they won the title, they have plenty of money and they are not in a hurry, the fighters who need to prove themselves are hungry for a fight, especially those who have a hard time getting to the fight and they also need money, all the little money they earn they spend on the camp and equipment...

    Usyk would've fought April 29th if the Gypsy Queen Luke Fairy hadn't of **** his pants & ducked the fight

    Remember Frank Warren said that Wembley stadium was booked for that date & the fight would be easy to make & it would be a 50/50 split,look how that turned out

    Fury was never going to agree the fight. Usyk made concession after concession and the fight still didn't happen.

    Show me any unified champion of any division of the whole history of the sport who agreed to an insulting 30% of the cut. Show me any unified champion of any division of the whole history of the sport who wouldn't have walked off right there and then, or maybe even before, when Fury messed up the Saudi deal.

    Who in their right mind think that Fury, who allegedly wasn't happy with the money the Saudis offered him, wanted to take the fight to the UK for a fraction of the Saudi money? In what world does that make sense? In what world does it make sense that Fury offers Joshua, who comes off of two back to back defeats, has no belts and lost a huge portion of his stock as a result, 40% while he offered 30% to the unified champion to whom Joshua lost to twice in a row?

    Furthermore, who has a history of fights collapsing around them, Fury or Usyk? And what has Fury been doing since apart from running around like a headless chicken, making fake callouts to virtually unknown Australian fighters and MMA guys and promising "massive news" but failing to deliver each and every time?

    Blaming Usyk for the fight not happening at this point is embarrassingly dumb.
