    Dubois loses to Usyk. Warren has already said there is no money in that fight.

    I'm sure Warren would prefer that Dubois doesn't lose his belt and another fight.

    Fury has already fought Wilder and won.

    If Wilder beats Usyk, Fury doesn't even have to fight Wilder again, if he so chooses. His fans will just say he's already stopped Wilder twice.

    The money is in Fury-Joshua and an ultimate unification. And Fury-Wilder 4 for everything sells more in the US than Fury vs. anyone else.

    So they can fight in Saudi and still bank US PPVs.

    Dubois is, but if he accepts a step-aside payment, Wilder is up.

    And Dubois remains where he is. So he gets paid for doing nothing.

    For some time the WBA no longer gives the place to number 1 when they have a regular champion.

    Yeah, because in Furyland, AKA bizarro world, ducking a guy that gets knocked out by an opponent Fury dominated is a good thing. Fury's stake rises. Logic being, an opponent that Fury dominated, ko'd the most skilled fighter in the division. LOL

    What's the point in Dubois vs Usyk other than Dubois getting wounded again? He lost to Joyce, he almost got KO'd by Lorena, it's far too soon to put him in against Usyk. Usyk will destroy him and ruin his career.

    Usyk vs Wilder is the only fight if Fury fight cannot be made.

    Next best fight involving Usyk. Would definitely provide an interesting match up.

    If Wilder KOs Usyk, Fury will spin it. "Wilder beat Usyk, and I already beat Wilder, so I'm really undisputed." Then, Fury would fight Chisora again.

    Fury ducked usyk for a reason, but imo wilder buries usyk inside the distance

    He only needs one shot and for all usyks skills? I think Wilder gets his shot

    Even if that fight happens and Wilder blasts Usyk out of there it wont absolve Fury of his shameless duck.
