I don't get why Usyk would push for 70/30 rematch
Usyk does Fury a big favor by accepting the 30% when he deserves 40. Fury may well give him 70% if he wins. He had 60-40 for the trilogy against Wilder.
Usyk's team is really talking, hopefully that's all it is. However, Krassyuk also said that either Dubois or Hrgovic are next for Usyk.
He now holds 3 of the belts, so no comparison at all. Even so, he's already accepted the 70-30 proposal, so he's conceded more than enough. This A-side, B-side talk is boring as ****. If fight doesn't get made, then this one is on Fury and his team.
Hrgovich would be a bit sucky. Dubois would be fun, but donkey dubois would look silly in there. AJ Usyk all over again, .....but worse than AJ.
Alex Krassyuk going in on Furys ppv numbers on ifl. He said Chisora v Usuyk did more ppv buys than Fury v Chisora.
Shite fights .. absolute anti climax ... both climbed the top of the tree.. & now we get Dubois & Charr etc lmao.. pointless them fighting anyone else .. Just retire what's the point in anyone else
True, he will be undisputed. But Usyk Undisputed vs Fury in the U.K - they should still have accepted a 50/50 split to get it done.
