Comments Thread For: Fury: Usyk, You And Your Team Are Worth 30 Percent; You Either Take It Or Leave It

I think it is pretty simple. Fury may have one belt & Usyk 3 but if the fight is held in the UK Fury should get the larger cut of the pie. Andrew Golota was a huge draw amongst Polish fans. In title fights against Byrd, Brewster & Ruiz he was the challenger but was the draw & took the lions share of the money. I remember Chris Byrd complaining about his $450000 purse for his title defence against Golota. He said I’m the world champion & Golota gets $4000000? Don King asked Byrd how many of the 20000 Poles in MSG were there to see him. How many fans in the UK would be going to this fight to see Usyk? I just want the fight to happen but I really don’t think Usyk has much of a case to land more then 30% if the fight is in the UK…

I had forgotten about Golota. This is a great example of how a bigger name gets to take the larger share of the pot.
Boxing fans are just too lazy to do a little research or look at facts.
Thank you for this

sorry, did you read my question well? it was a reasoning to a guy, that it is impossible to have 15 million army (if Usyk and a major of the capital are in the army it means every single man in the army too) for 15 million reasons, were a supply and logistics is bearably can be qualify for a reason at all. So even if all reasons are resolved and Ukraine has 15 million army, it means just one thing: there is no russia anymore as well as no force in the world that can stop or handle it. Who for fk sake would need it? So come back to my question: did your American grandad participate in WW2? I hope you understand now were I am leading to

Yes, I had a grandparent fight in WWII. I don't know what that means for your question though.

You are saying the only way a politician or sports star would fight in a war would be if every man in the country was fighting?

There were plenty of U.S. sports stars who fought in WWII. Possibly the greatest baseball hitter ever, Ted Williams, saw active duty. Teddy Roosevelt (then Assistant Secretary of the Navy and future U.S. President) resigned his post and joined active duty in the Spanish-American War, etc.

It’s the mentally slow like this that write comments but literally have no clue what they’re talking about. 50/50 when fury’s the bigger draw? Especially at Wembley? Sounds like you’re still ****ing your head against the wall after your boy wilder got beat to a pulp and ended up with similar mental problems. The only 3 losses you should count, are the first wilder fight, wilders mental state after being a human punching bag in the second, and your own mental cognitive ability after you fanboy drooled on a one trick pony and couldn’t fathom the outcome.

You clearly have a mental instability as you wear on using words to offer yourself some form of comfort.
hmmmmm, hmmm, (this me as your shrink telling you what to do next to help get past your silly thoughts)
why don’t you just go go ahead and stop saying such silly things sweetheart and reflect on the fat diddycoy losing three times already and this doesn’t count the two additional one punch flattenings that he was on the end of as he was lucky enough to get the wins.
hmmmmm, go back to basics young lad and start on mummy’s feeding and have a little lay down…huuuusssssshhhhhhhh. Zzzzzzzzz there ya go!

How Fury, with his terrible resume and 1 BELT can be a draw is.......very sad.
Then again, this is the worst HW era in the history of the sport.

Would it be asking too much for Usyk to batter the goof into permanent retirement ?

Fury is now the "Heel".

Lmao what kind of nonsense is that? 60% to the winner? Floyd mike Tyson Lennox ODLH trinidad hopkins no fighter has ever fought under such a ridiculous contract. Fury’s response to that was foh 70/30 minus 1% a day. Usyk deserves 40%. I think everyone would agree to that. Everyone BUT usyk and his camp. They haven’t gone below 50/50 as a negotiation tactic in the press. Usyk camp next response is “60/40 winner take 60” all in the press lol. That’s not how u negotiate a fight. Fury has a big fight with joyce coming either way. who’s usyk gonna fight? Dubois? No one cares about that fight and it’s a fight that he might lose. They should negotiate for a fair 40% behind closed doors and get it done. Usyk ain’t getting 50% tho he don’t deserve it just cause he’s from Ukraine and Ukraine is at war and people are sympathetic to that

Nothing wrong with 50/50 either. Or maybe 45/45 with the other 10% held in escrow for the winner

How does fury think usy k worth 30%? Is it previous gate fugures? Id rather say usyk is pfp a better fighter than fury, so should be worth 40%.
Pay Usy k depending on how good usy k is. That's usyk true worth. Fury is paying usy k 40% for privilege of sharing ring with him, not usy k previous pay packets!

.

No, that's not the point. The point is: if the country's three all time best heavy weights are fighting in the army (one of them was arguably the third man in the country just 9-8 years ago) it means all the rest are there too. It is just math and statistics. Currently there are many Ukrainian celebrities, top sportsmen, politics, actors, singers other famous people are in the army fighting for their country but as I explained earlier it just physically cannot be all of them and even cannot be top three in each category there. For example If Frazier, Forman and Ali were in Vietnam it would had meant that everybody else are also there. Just math and sociology. And they are probably not top three of all time though.
