    I so hope the Whyte vs Fury fight happens and Fury finally fights a quality opponent for the first time since Wlad in 2015. I think Fury will just vacate the title though to fight Charr or Helenius.

    I thought Fury said he doesn't care about the money....

    Fury fears The Slickness. If the opportunity for undisputed next against The Slickness was genuinely on the table and he is the one who put a stumbling block in the way and ran in the opposite direction of the smoke then he has to shoulder the blame for it. Usyk knows not fear and he always runs towards the smoke not in the opposite direction from it.

    That 20 mill in the pot for the step aside or whatever the correct figure is should be added to Usyk's purse for being the man and the real fighting man he is. He's the One True King, the Lord of the Seven Kingdoms and the Iron Throne belongs to him.

    You do realise both Whyte and Joshua have to be satisfied with the step aside? Someone has to pay them.

    Usyk manager is a man of his word. He preety much confirm what Hearn said that Fury is all talk, but he is a goddamn coward and is backing from Usyk fight.
    This is a clear duck.
    Fury fans trying to defend him after the fiasco with AJ fight is a biased blindgirls that doesnt care about boxing, only their primadona.

    Anthony Joshua doesn't want to fight him and Eddie doesn't either

    Eddie is projecting

    Fury wasn't willing to p*ss away millions paying willing duckers AJ and Whyte off in order to solve AJ and Hearn's problems for them and save their operation. He would also be going into undisputed on the back of one fight in 27 or so months: if the shoe was on the other foot you would be saying "these snakes are just trying to get Usyk half-cooked, it's entirely reasonable for him to be fully matchfit in a fight of this magnitude" and you would be right.

    If Usyk beats rematch clause AJ and Fury beats supposed mandatory Whyte and Fury-Usyk doesn't happen within 6-12 months, then we can start pointing fingers. Until then it's BS.

    I am so fed up with these sagas in boxing. There's plenty of money to go round. Just make the fights already. In the words of Monty Python ....

    Fury ain't paying a s... for step aside, its the Saudi dummy. Usyk promoter said everyone agreed and Fury is the one who backs off.
    And this while constantly calling Usyk out and how easy of a fight he is.
    I don't get how anyone can defend this blatant fat cheater!
    Undisputed and a history is on the line, so ducking this match is huge!!
    F*** Eddie but i 100% believe Usyk manager, his whole team is no b.c.

    It's like people just expect Fury to cough up money to fighters so he can force them aside.

    Anyone questioning Fury's desire to fight any man born of their mother will be sent to a reconditioning camp in northern Manchester. You've been warned.

    Fury Whyte build up is going to be hilariously good, it will take away the limelight from Usyk & AJ.

    How come people weren't getting angry with Joshua for not paying Wilder step aside money last summer?
