Pretty sure you find most people to be insufferable :laughing:

Not really, but this is bullshit and a waste of time. I can only assume Fury is close to retiring and is just grabbing easy money.

Yeah I highly doubt it’s going to be a 50/50. It’s going to be what both fighters want fury wanted like a 75/25 against Uysk and that was for the undisputed championship with the 75/25 in this fight it suits both parties. Fury gets the majority of the money and Francis still gets the biggest payday of his life, that 25% purse is still more than Francis has ever made probably in all of his fights together.

All that being said, like Nick Diaz army said we can expect something big from Dana the Zuckerberg vs Musk exhibition fight will be on the same card as the Jones and everything else under the moon

from the UK BBC sport article today:

Heavyweight world champion Tyson Fury will face MMA fighter Francis Ngannou on 28 October in Saudi Arabia.

Former UFC heavyweight champion Ngannou, 36, has no professional record in boxing.

Team Fury say the fight is not an exhibition and will “take place under the official rules of professional boxing, with three judges ringside adopting the 10-point must system”.

Fury will not be defending his WBC title in the Riyadh bout.

Me too Bruv. Ngannou is a marvel. He never stops doing the impossible.
Its remarkable to be able to watch his lifestory unfold. Its like Disney shit.
Guy fought the UFC and won… applaudable.

I’m going with Fury for the win but just Imagine if Francis did catch Fury.

I hope Francis catches him and destroys his legacy. Fury deserves it for avoiding real fights while he’s in his prime.

A lot of the greatest fighters in every era were out of the minds. It’s what separates them from the top of the pack.

I doubt he gets 25% if that was the offer for Usyk.

Chisora vs Fury 3 was a 80/20 split with Chisora getting around $4.5mm per some sources.

He won’t. Francis doesn’t hit nearly hard enough to put down Fury. Fury could come in drunk and coked up and beat Francis.

Guessing Saudis paid big guaranteed money to both. Francis isn’t taking that fight to make $4.5m or anything close to it.

Lets see John Fury vs Ngannou in August and then if Ngannou can win he can get a crack at Tyson.

John has already said he would smash Dana, I’m sure he would love to box Francis.

John’s promos are hilarious. Dude is a character.
