    What if Usyk has called Fury to fight 1 day after he fight Whyte and say if he doesn't accept this is a duck ?
    What you say then ? Same for AJ to be fair.

    I though you were fair on your point. November is b.c. date. Even Fury fans has to admit that.
    I already stated my opinion on December date. It should happen. AJ said he is ready for December. If Fury wants to fight AJ, just make the fight in December and let's see who the better man is.
    The winner will not be decided by who have 0 in his record, and who have 3, but actually in the ring.

    Fury didn't ask to fight AJ the day after a fight. What you on about?

    I understand but if he fights AJ instead of getting usyk fury in February we maybe get it in may or later. And what if usyk takes a fight between and then needs more time off? They should just make fury usyk for January or February and get it done wbc is already going through mechanations to strip fury unless he fights wilder again

    If he actually beats AJ, and then Usyk which I doubt heavily.

    The money in a fight like this is not the gate so much as the PPV. You only going to make good PPV numbers if the fight crosses over from boxing to general sports fans. If you have in December the fight is effectively competing for attention with the climix of the World Cup. That makes no commercial sense. I don't see any massive fights happening in November or December as World Cup will dominate sporting landscape

    November is taking the **** and a bit suspect considering they said to Usyk in December. Plus the opponent already signed to fight Fury which is supposed to be announce this week is apparently for December. So why November? AJ just fought two weeks and Fury is already apparently in camp.

    If AJ agree to 40% but request for it to be December not November (as Warren confirmed the offer was for) then I hop Furys camp do not reject (as it may be viewed a duck by them with all things considered).

    The issue with December is the world cup.

    The end of November is really a deal that should be done. AJs fight with Usyk was not physically taxing.

    They were clearly taxing 12 rounds for both guy. 2 month turnaround with Aaj having only a few weeks whilst it appears Fury is already in camp is taking the ****.

    Fury offered the potential fight to Chisora and Usyk for December. Fury supposed already agreed opponent is for December. Why not have the AJ fight in December not November? Appears to seeking an advantage or they know AJ cant fight so soon so it's a PR stunt.

    Usyk isn’t going to be ready by January/February if he takes the year off. He’d need an 10-12 week camp at least if he started back up at the beginning of next year. So Fury vs Usyk won’t happen until March 2023 at the earliest. If Fury wants to stay active in between then I don’t see what’s wrong with that. The WBC isn’t stripping Fury anytime soon, he has until April next year to defend his title. AFAIK Wilder vs Helenius isn’t a final eliminator so even if he wins that fight he probably wouldn’t be in a mandatory position until late 2023 or early 2024 at the earliest.

    He also demanded 500 million within a week to fight Usyk.
