    I would be curious how broadcast rights would play into all this.

    I can't imagine DAZN would allow Joshua to take £30m for such a fight without broadcast rights for example. Are they really going to go to bids given there is clearly a mole in the camp as demonstrated by Beterbiev/Smith bids...

    And Wilder's seems reasonable, and he gets to say he is getting 50-50, but is he still working with Haymon? If so, what about Showtime?

    At the same time, paying Fury £90m and giving ESPN broadcast rights would demonstrate just how much the Saudi's want the fight. Though how likely is that?

    Usyk's pot seems reasonable, but I assume he will get rights to broadcast as he did for Joshua II.

    Jordan is basically mates with Fury, and his professional capacity has been one of pro-QP propaganda, so maybe this is true maybe it isn't. He's probably not an ideal source - a rumour of a rumour at this point.

    Anyway, no matter the true splits, let's hope this card happens!

    Definitely not. Should be a 90/10 split in Usyk's favour and Belly should be forced to donate his 10% to a charity of Usyk's choosing,

    You don’t get what you deserve you get what you negotiate. And you deserve what you negotiate.

    Considering also he had all those belts and didn't lose them in a fight. Practically, he had all the belts, unlike the blonde.

    Assuming those money are real, but not just a rumor: if Usyk is fine with his part, so is Fury and the rest and so are the Saudis - what's wrong here? Accusing them of being biased towards Fury? How about if we swap Usyk's and Fury's money - that's fair, right fanboys? Usyk had 50:50 against Joshua in their second fight where AJ had no belt, so accept it: you know the business is a big part of boxing. Be happy if we have this fight and stop "vhining".

    Most probably, that's why I was assuming in my previous post. We'll probably never know the money of that deal, if it happens, just as we'll never know what the Saudis offered to Usyk and Fury the last time. I also think it's too early to talk about guaranteed amounts regarding this event.
