    I highly doubt that they will pay fury £150m. They weren’t talking those figures for an undisputed against Joshua which was a far bigger fight.

    I'm not convinced that it was. Fury and Joshua are huge in the UK but many of their punters are shared- Usyk brings a different audience. Beyond the profits, though, Usyk is perfect for the Saudis. His 'glory of Ukraine' angle makes him priceless in an enterprise that is all about redeeming the reputation of the Kingdom and MBS. It's a very attractive fight for them because of that.

    He's a strange guy but there are way more instances of him saying the complete opposite and if we held Fury to this same standard it would end a lot worse for him because he's says one thing on Monday and the complete opposite on Tuesday

    Exactly, I don't know why fans would take anything they say seriously. Joshua's feeling the effects of getting whooped by Usyk. Thoughts about Fury aren't even in the equation. They let Fury slide fighting Chisora for the 3rd time.

    Fury will deal with Usyk

    & every man and their dog will suddenly be gagging for his big hairy slong

    Joe Joyce is the only man worthy....I suspect once the Saudi's have got a taste of the Gypsy King they will be hooked and want more no matter the opponent, which is good because only AJ has the drawing power outside of Saudi money to make Fury want to wake up in the morning.

    Saudi money will mean Joyce can get a shot.
