£500 million? Fury won’t get close to that much for Usyk fight – Hearn

A heavyweight fight for division dominance is not a given, because WBC champion Tyson Fury (32-0-1, 23 KOs) can go on principle and refuse to meet WBA / WBO / IBF belt holder Alexander Usyk (20-0, 13 KO) unless he is provided with a frivolously requested fee of an astronomical half a billion pounds. Promoter Eddie Hearn commented on the British’s comments.

Recall that Fury beat Dillian Whyte in the spring and “retired”. Along with the title. But in recent days he has been hinting that he will return, however, for £ 500,000,000. (ESPN knows how much prize money Usyk and Fury will receive for the super fight.)

What is Fury wanting? £500 million? – The functionary laughed in the comments
iFL TV. Well, he won’t get anything close to that. So maybe he won’t agree to the fight.”

Usyk vs Fury: the media called a new date for the superfight

Hearn says he’s not really sure Tyson will go into the ring against Usyk.

“Not sure at all. If he’s a man of his word (and we all know he isn’t), then either they give him £500 million or he doesn’t fight,” Eddie said.

In fact, Fury did not explicitly say that he would go out just for half a billion pounds. There is a loophole! Yes, and Alexander claims that Fury agreed to fight Usyk.
