    Wilder is far from being a great boxer, but his punch can't be denied as horrific and dangerous to everyone. Those are two different things.

    Joe Louis must have had a tough time, considering he was a dead body. Fury probably still kept his distance and utilized his reach. Close but fair UD.

    Problem is Usyk has already paid his dues x 1000 and he's not young and has only got a few fights left. Like I said, Usyk is very well known and popular over here and he's put in the work to raise his profile and build his brand in the UK by taking on the likes of AJ, Bellew and Chisora (he even won his Olympic gold over and beat Joe Joyce in the WSB over here too) and his commercial value will have obviously increased after beating AJ x 2. Those three belts he brings to the table don't just great enhance Belly's legacy they put more zeros on on his future purses if he wins them too.

    AJ is still a bigger commercial draw than Usyk over here but if they fought for a third time there's no way Team AJ would've be trying to secure a bigger split.

    50/50 was fair. 60/40 was understandable. But 70/30 is disgraceful and Belly has lost a lot of fans because of his greed. He should do what's right and concede to 60/40.
