    Reported by Fury toady Gareth Davies. He was probably drunk and imagined it.

    15 million pounds to step aside???
    No wonder MMA guys want some of that boxing cash. They paying multiple millions for guys to just jerk their peckers at home. Hell how much did Ngannou win last night? $600,000? It ain't worth it sometimes.

    Nevermind a grain of salt

    Squeeze two lemons in your eyes then snort a bag of salt whilst Fury squeezes you to death.

    The funny part is how they dont even need to pay Whyte off because the WBC will fob him off which ever way

    How can you get step aside for a rematch that you demanded? He's basically said 'I'm going to vacate unless you agree to a rematch but you will have to pay me if I bottle it'.

    Could be a good time to make Joshua vs Whyte or Wilder.

    So who is throwing away 15 million lbs for AJ to step aside? That was more than he made fighting Usyk in their first fight. If this is being offered then it is a no brainer to accept 15 millions to do nothing. I just don't see it being true though.

    15 milly to sit at home and lift weights?

    Ngannou must be salty getting only a guaranteed $600K to actually fight.

    I'm pressing X to doubt for this one. Seems like different sources are just citing a rumour.

    Saudi's are rock hard right now thinking about a Fury bout

    AJ and fatboy Ruiz stank the joint out for their big bout.

    Fury tearing usyks limbs off and consuming his flesh will be worth it

    I'd love to be paid 15 million to not get my ass beaten and humiliated in front of the world.... again. Quite frankly, I'd throw an epic party of the century that would last a month. What a deal!:lol:

    Joshua only has a rematch with Usyk because he activated his rematch clause.

    If Joshua doesn't want to fight Usyk and only activated it because he's waiting for someone to pay him to step aside ... then Usyk should just tell whomever not to pay Joshua because he (Usyk) has a signed contract to fight Joshua and he wants to beat up Joshua again.

    Don't insist on a rematch clause if you don't want an immediate rematch. Don't activate an immediate rematch clause if you don't want a rematch.

    Either activate it and get your butt in the ring ... or don't activate the rematch clause and don't waste everyone's time.

    There’s talk about Whyte getting 5M as well to step aside. This would be around his actual purse for the Fury fight. I think he would rather take the money and step aside. However I bet the WBC would absolutely love to shaft him and give him nothing

    Absolute disgrace.
    Ngannou arguably the biggest name in active MMA behind Mcgregor is earing like 1/18th of what Joshua could take to step aside.

    Dana White has the audacity to say that UFC fighters are not underpaid
