    I think this will end up going round in circles, but for the most part, "getting paid as much as possible" depends on entertaining the fans to some degree. Or at least being a draw.

    But a few want to be elite, like Fury. He was top of the game but has done too much ducking recently.

    USK will school him

    He's been a rubbish World Champion, let's be honest, Wilder after he'd already beaten him, Whyte after he'd been put to sleep by the ghost of Povetkin, Chisora after he'd lost to everyone including Fury twice already and then the joke that was the Ngannou fight. So on top of being an absolute moron he's also been a rubbish World Champion. One of the most immature men in sport too, it is quite astonishing how he and his family carry on and how people were sucked in by some of the rubbish he's said. The sooner he's out of the equation the better because even if he put on an absolute masterclass against Usyk he'd still end up holding the division up for the next two or three years.

    He made a rap video a year ago stating he would sign the contract before ducking it again in September.

    Yep turned down the chance to fight for the WBC twice

    Also turned down nganu twice which must have been big money which he's all about now right.

    The way he tries to play up to be the patriotic people's champ is a joke.

    He doesn't give a crap about his UK fans- he'd still be having every fight in America if he wasn't banned from there. Draped in stars and Stripes singing American pie.

    Now the Saudi money is around he is over there dressed in full Arab attire. Doesn't give a flying **** about his fans just where the most money is.

    Luckily he hasn't got many fans to please these days

    The HW division would be a better place if the toxic trio who only want to have a move around once per year. Were replaced with real fighting men like Usyk, Hrgovic and Zhang.

    Fact is get rid of AJ, Wilder and Fury and swap them out for Usyk, Hrgovic and Zhang.

    This . Mid 30's family man behaving like a teenager instead of setting an example to his young family.

    There is definitely something very off about Tyson fury, he seems to be mentally losing it again. Part of me feels sorry for him, the other part makes me think he is doing it to himself. He just seems angry all the time and he never used to be like this.
