    Yes, bang on. This a terrible look for Belly and the fact he's pulling this crap with such a class act, fearless road warrior, and godlike human being like Usyk who literally personifies everything right, great and noble about our beloved sport and indeed our species just makes it that much more despicable. Every true fan of the sport desperately wants to see this fight and the only reason why we're going to be able to do so is because Usyk literally bent over backyards and did everything in his power to make it happen.

    We are used to you being harmlessly completely unhinged about what you confess is essentially an unhealthy over-identification + obsession with Fury.

    But your delusional political ideals should not stay unopposed.
    Putin is a True Monster who repeatedly bombed his own people & pretended tons of murders were Chechnyan terrorists.
    That is how the old KGB agent came to power.

    This psychopath has a comical number of folks who oppose him ending up poisoned around the world., with induced heart attacks, or the famous "accidentally" falling out of high places to gruesome deaths.
    He runs a kleptocracy where even the billionaires must grovel & do his will or they lose everything or end up dead.
    The average person suffers grievously.

    We have shown weakness before, but he could not get away with invading when fellow sociopath Trump was in power.
    Then he made up a Clinically Insane story about the a Nazi problem there, although Zelensky who has giant cojones is Jewish.
    The War Crimes against just Ukranian *civilians* are huge in number.

    The amount of Russian men who have had lonely awful early very early deaths to service the ego of this insane little old man is Tragic.

    Please refrain from political commentary so I-& we-need not correct your clueless rooting for the Predators.

    Haha, apologies - I was just being a windup.

    I think we're on the same page really, it's good news there's been progress.. Let's just hope nothing scuppers it. I really like both fighters, and it'll be nice to watch a fight where I will be happy regardless of who wins.

    Saying that, as someone who is clearly more patient with Fury than you are - I too was getting frustrated with what looked like attempts to make fight negotiations as awkward as possible. I have no interest in Fury fighting anyone else other than Usyk at the moment.. If he wins that I think he does need to fight Joyce and probably Joshua for legacy reasons. I absolutely do not want to see him fighting Francis Ngannou, Hafþór Björnsson, Logan Paul or Deontay Wilder yet again. He can do all those silly exhibition fights when he retires - not when there's huge unanswered questions in the division and a rare opportunity for a unification fight.

    If Usyk wins though - what an amazing record, for me he'd have nothing more to prove. What impresses me most with Usyk he's fought almost all his most significant opponents as the away fighter. Ok, sometimes out of necessity, but still an amazing feat. Even if he loses to Fury, it's still an absolutely fantastic career and he's an exceptional fighter. He also comes across as a great guy.

    What a fantastic fight to look forward to. I can see arguments for either fighter winning - I just hope it happens.

    It's a very Fury fan thing to be unable to think of anything else but money. **** money, that's not the point here. The point is: no single fighter, let alone a reigning unified champion of the world participating in an undisputed HW bout was offered "30%, take it or leave it" ever before. None, zero, zilch, nada. It's ****ing disrespectful and nothing else but a power play. But unfortunately for the fat ogre and his vassals, Usyk is on the path to greatness so he called the bluff. Fury now has only six weeks to prepare for the biggest fight of his professional life. It will be so satisfying to see Usyk battering him into retirement.

    98% of your posts are about Fury. It's just boxing mate that's all it is. Relax, put your feet up and don't allow someone who doesn't know you exist control your life.

    Do you remember when Putin used agent orange, depleted uranium and nuclear weapons against people?

    Bruce Trampler of TopRank put this out on his Twitter but deleted it since. At this point, I'd say it is an empty rumour. That said, I wouldn't be surprised at all if Fury tried to postpone the fight somehow.

    What a perfectly put summary. It's good to know that most people are not complete nutcases cheering for war criminals.
