Yeah, prior to the first AJ fight and especially the rematch Usyk had been criminally underpaid but he's earned extremely well since the Saudis got involved. Usyk vs Belly £115million. 'Fury is understood to have taken home £85million of that, after an agreement was reached for him to claim a bigger cut. Usyk won much less despite winning, collecting roughly £30million.' That's how much it took and how much of an unfair split it took to prise that big fat shaved chimp out of the chicken coop But Usyk is reputedly set to take home the lion's share of a £150 million split this time albeit I bet it's still a lot closer to 50/50 than the purse for the first fight was, assuming these figures are correct that is Yes. Usyk has at least three kids Very true. They can't use that one on me though because I did used to be a big fan of Belly and they know this and I was a fan of his going right back to his pro debut
Thanks Serge - that’s excellent info, especially regarding earnings. Usyk did get royally screwed the first time around. Now waiting for the referee to be announced.
Exactly and master Goat boxer got his face rearranged by winning a tough fight with this guy lol Division is overhyped
If only Fury and these other "super" heavies had the gumption and nuts to actually attempt to break down and overwhelm Usyk with their size. They're terrified of getting countered and gassing. The minute I saw Fury sticking his jab out and using lateral movement, I knew he was going to go for another sorry ass attempt to outbox the same guy who clearly outboxed him last time. It makes me not want to bother holding my breath for Dubois 2 because I'm expecting him to do something goofy as well trying to box behind a jab and outpoint Usyk. It doesn't work. Unless you have a similar level of ring IQ and skill, you don't have a prayer of outboxing Usyk at his pace doing the cute back and forth shuffling and throwing light/medium flurries.
