    John McDermott would be his third trilogy. Did Ali only have two (Frazier and Norton)? I think this is the fight the public would want to see (unless Audley Harrison could be tempted out of retirement for one last dance)

    Can you post this link in another thread please? I’ve only seen it in about 5 so far.

    No worries at all. I'll post everytime its warranted.

    Your statement is ironic though, since its in a Fury vs Chisora thread. First of its kind, we can presume.

    I've already watched that full video when it was posted to other threads. It isn't really connected to my question. The Saudi Prince was making a big announcement at the Paul v Fury fight that wasn't connected to Usyk v Fury. Thanks though.

    He also said it is the biggest fight in boxing for 100%. Though maybe a 100-0 split would be considered greedy on Usyk's part...

    Understood. Krassyuks interview was the biggest news I saw all weekend, although I did see Fury post regarding MBS and an announcment, since the announcement hasnt arrived, all we have now is Krassyuks interview as the big news. Hence my repsonse.

    Fury Usyk is the biggest fight in the sport at the moment, I'm hoping MBS (who is worth 25bn!) can fill Usyk "void" and we get the undisputed fight on. I cant see MBS forking out big for any other fight IMO.

    Certainly not another Chisora fight which some jokingly speculate.

    Fury had no problems demanding a 50/50 split in 2019 when he had no belts and Joshua was ridiculously a bigger draw than him. Yet, he and his brainwashed cult members have a problem with the unified HW champion of the world not wanting less than 50/50. You can't even make that stuff up, cosmic proportions of double standards and hypocrisy right there.

    The mental gymnastics you put in to justify Fury's cowardice is hilarious and gives an interesting insight into your intellectual capabilities as well. Based on your arguments, you are adamant that not being satisfied with, say, $80m or $90m or whatever the Saudis offered because Fury demands $100m, but instead, he wants 60% or 70% of whatever they can generate fighting in the UK is a good deal, apparently. Because **** logic, that's why.

    Arum and Warren both confirmed that whatever they can make in the UK is peanuts compared to the Saudi deal. There's a reason why the UK is always a third option in boxing these days - Saudi and the US are the first two, with the US still not being close to the money that you can get from the Saudis. So, Fury prices himself out with the guys who can pay him the most, and due to his criminal associations he is not allowed in the country that could generate him the second most income - and all these are supposed to be some brilliant career moves by him :D

    You really can't see that even Warren and Arum are fed up with Fury, right? In his efforts to run from Usyk, he even prices himself out with the Saudis for a much smaller pot in the UK. In what universe is that business savvy or remotely logical? :D

    Also, you and other members of the Fury congregation keep parroting about the business side of things. Then why don't you accept that Fury simply isn't worth as much on the market as you or he and his team think? The Saudis don't care about him or some YouTuber moron with a bird's nest for hair. They don't even care about boxing. All they care about is profit. If they don't give Fury $100m it's not because they have an agenda or they want to "disrespect" him (lol at the arrogance of those who think it's about Saudi billionaires and royals being interested in disrespecting some British boxer). They don't give him $100m because they don't think that amount is worth it to invest. Simple.

    It's hilarious that whenever you want to justify Fury's demands and career moves, you keep talking about how business and market value work yet the Fury congregation is in full meltdown when the same monetary and business principles are applied by the Saudis when they estimate Fury's market value and how much they can get out of the fight - and apparently, it's not worth $100m for them.
