    I really like Usyk a lot as a fighter and would love to see him whup Fury good, but Tyson is all wrong for him, I think he knocks OU out.

    I have great respect for Usyk, but people are going a little too ape s*** over him now, saying he's the p4p GOAT and all this insane crap. He's a hell of a fighter, but come on, talk about rose-tinted glasses lol.

    Agreed, what Fury said here is spot on - he won't put a chink in Fury's armour at all. The fight has never excited Fury and whilst it will happen, it's clear that they will need to pay for it to happen.

    Fury has 1 belt, Usyk has 4 belts. If anything Fury is irrelevant now. He's been retired and guess what? The boxing world moved on (except for his fan boys).

    Usyks story...undefeated ATG CW moving up to HW and winning 4 belts, serving in an unjust war against his nation, brilliant defeats of HW champ, amazing boxing style....far surpasses Furys current story: fat slob with big mouth and trash family, struggling in fight with Wallin, looking unmotivated and even fatter in Wilder III.

    Fury is the Kim Kardashian of the boxing world except she has an even bigger butt.

    Yeah I think Tyson knows he'd take Usyk without too much of a problem. He's acting like an idiot though, if this is him trying to stir up interest, it's a bad idea. Yet another reason to add to my long list of reasons why the good 'ol days of boxing were good indeed. There was so much less talking & more fighting! :boxing1

    I don't remember ever interacting with you... But at least now I know you're a useless imbecile that I will ignore.

    I don’t see him even getting £100 Million. To 9 figures Fury will need AJ in the other corner.

    Just for my own curiosity (and for sake of comparison, since you are applying your expertise to this), what is the closest type of deal you've arranged to a large-scale fight like Fury/Usyk will be?

    I'd still make fury a slight favorite over usyk. Fury won't respect usyk like AJ did he will get dirty and use his size and strength on him.

    If Fury stays retired, his resume stays thinner than a wafer. That's on him and up to him if he's fine with that. If this fight doesn't happen, Usyk will still have many options.

    Irrelevant to who draws more people into a fight.

    Come back and speak when Usyk brings in 90k people at a stadium fight as the A side.

    Simple, he doesn't.

    A pharmaceutical company was behind on their study (clinical trial) startup and missed a number of key deadlines. They needed work to be done ASAP without knowing precisely what was needed. I created a contract for a preliminary scope of work and included a retainer for all services to be added as needed.

    Basically, they weren't sure what the final package of services would be, but they needed some work done as the situation evolved.

    This was a Top 5 pharmaceutical company and their net worth is in the billions.

    If this fight doesn't happen Usyk will retire.

    Will the same people then say he's 'Ducking Wilder?' If he doesn't fight him?

    I doubt it.

    Wilder needs to move himself back to the top of contenders list. Worry about that first.

    I realize things like memory, clear thinking, common sense & decency and the like, are difficult when one is afflicted by intellectual dwarfism, but hang in there! They may come out with a shot for it or something. :2guns:
