LOL at asking for £500 he don't want this fight, thats why he is pricing himself out of it nothing to see here
Fury is a diva and needs to be courted. There is a very good chance this fight is not going to happen. At this stage, I’d be surprised if it happened in ‘22. Usyk is no nonsense and reasonable. Wish there were more fighters like Usyk. Unfortunately more fighters would rather talk or bicker than fight.
He has a deadline by WBC by Friday, aka after 2 days to say if he is retired or not. His agent himself said the split will/should be 50-50. So that pretty much ***** Fury if he decide to want more, it's a clear Duck. Also no one it's going to send him that they have X amount of money in whatever bank, whatever. And no one going to respond him in 7 days. I'm sorry but this is what is all wrong with Boxing.
BOXING fans need Usyk more than they need Fury. Usyk vs Wilder? Huuuge fight in the US. Usyk vs Joyce (assuming he beats Parker)? Huuge fight in the UK. Usyk vs Ruiz (assuming he beats Ortiz)? Huuuge fight in Mexico. Usyk vs Hrgovic...the Destruction in Dubrovnik....Huuge fight somewhere.
It's not impossible. I've executed abridged legally-binding contracts in a day or two using existing clauses and templates and I'm not a high powered lawyer. Proof of funds can just be a most recent electronic statement. The main points: Purse PPV Billing (who's name cums first) Gloves Who enters ring first Who steps on the scale first Drug testing Fight date, location, other revenue streams, network distribution, etc. can all be TBD and have contingencies in an addendum. This contract is more about moving the process forward and negotiating in good faith. It's not a merger of Fortune 500 companies. LOL! That said, I think Fury is full of ****.
Warren already said Fury told him to make the fight. Stop taking what Fury says literal he’s building a fight https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/b...ake-undisputed-clash-Oleksandr-Usyk-next.html
Again people taking it all literally, the fight will happen. He said it right though, Usyk barely landed a punch of note across the whole 24 rounds, Fury walks through him. If the fight does not happen due to stupid demands though, I will pot off at Fury as much as anyone.
If this gets difficult, Usyk should tell Fury he'll fight Wilder instead, then, and when he beats Wilder, he'll have a better HW resume than Fury in the eyes of everyone.
What I mean is that Usyk could retire tommorow and be easily consideted an ATG, while I dont think the same applies to Fury
People need to stop taking Fury literally. He has no idea what a contract negotiation is. The fight will happen, but I would bet in February.
