    Ultimately, Fury is a bigger star and is worth more money. This deal is 50-50 and so it would be irrational for Fury to accept.

    Belts mean nothing now?
    The respect for the other ‘man of the division’ means nothing now?

    Fury was happy to pay Chisora handsomely (given his status as a gatekeeper) but against a serious threat his pen has no ink.

    Let’s not forget Fury said he’d ‘fight the middleweight for free’. As soon as push came to shove, he wanted every advantage possible.

    Then you see Jake Paul and Fury who were ranked around 350 in there Division before the Fight fighting for Millions as the Maim event on a PPV....The Circus is in Town and unfortunately a lot of so called Boxing Fans out there cant get enough of it.!!!!

    Fury’s schtick now seems laudable, after his team is refusing a very good offer for both sides

    fury is not as confident in his ability to beat Usyk as he says.

    In this case no they don’t for one everybody knows that Joshua been ducking wilder and fury hiding out with them belts, Ruiz beat AJ to that don’t mean he would get 50/50 the money man is fury and as a boxing fan while it would be cool for fury to just do whatever to make the fight him wanting the bigger cut isn’t unreasonable

    If only Fury believed in himself as much as his rabid Furyette congregation believe in him.

    The way things are going, both guys need to comprpomise. I think this one has 55-45 written all over it. But what the hell do I know.

    Yes but that extra 30% equates to a very substantial sum and would put an enormous amount of extra pressure on the judges , if this is really the end of it then the last shake of the dice offer should be 55/45 Fury

    60/40 in the UK is borderline fair, 55-45 sounds better, but him not accepting that is disrespect to Usyk who is the Unified champion of the world. This just proves Fury is not confident of victory against the "Middleweight".

    At 3:30 - “The last thing we’ve offered to Tyson was the 60-40 split and the winner takes it all, I mean the winner takes the 60”

    Oops.

    But hold on, I hear you, MAD_DUCK aka the spokesduck of the Furyette congregation. Let’s not get ahead ourselves. There are still several possibilities here.

    1. That’s not Krassyuk just a doppelgänger
    2. It’s a deep fake video
    3. Krassyuk (my bad, I mean the doppelgänger) is lying.

    But in any case, let’s say this video is real (very big if, since it’s Team Usyk whom, unlike Team Fury, have a long and rich history of dicking around contracts and fights, as we all know), so let’s still not jump to conclusions here. After all, Krassyuk still hasn’t posted about this 60-40 thing on his IG, right? How legit could it be?

    And in any case, we’d like to see Krassyuk delivering personally the draft of the offer handed to Fury. One can never be sure with these sneaky Ukrainians, with always using third parties to communicate their offers and never posting about said offers on their IGs and all that.
