    To be fair to Usyk.

    if it was anyone of us fighting AJ
    Wouldn’t you want more money?
    its a lot of risk for a smaller Heavyweight.

    can’t blame him for asking.
    The worse they can tell him is No.

    Usyk may want more money but he won't get more than the normal mandatory purse split, Usyk another social media talker.

    Whether folk like it or not, AJ generates big revenue whoever he fights, so team AJ are not needing Usyk to enable them to earn big.

    Age is not Usyks friend, take what purse is offered and get AJ in opposite corner, start making financial demands once he becomes the 'A' side, in this bout with AJ he definitely is not that

    Opposed to what? Eddie Hearn isn't obligated to pay him any more than 25% of the purse. Those are the rules.

    When a mandatory and a champ can't agree on a price, they go to "blind" purse bids (so you don't know what the other promoter is bidding).

    Will Eddie Hearn LOSE Joshua-Usyk to another promoter?

    Oh man. When it rains it pours.

    Well, Eddie isn't obligate to promote it if it goes to purse bids.

    Maybe that sheik with $155 million that never arrived can promise to give that money to Hearn and they can stage Joshua-Usyk in the stadium that hasn't been built for Joshua-Fury?

    Easy Peasy.
