Former heavyweight treble winners Anthony Joshua and Dillyan White have already given their concession price, the so-called concession fee, and as long as this condition is met, Tyson Fury and Olek Sander Usik can engage in an undisputed heavyweight battle, which is also the ultimate heavyweight battle.
According to the latest report in the Daily Star, Joshua asked for a concession fee of £15 million (about $20 million) to give up the second fight with Usik, while White asked for £5 million (about $6.8 million) to give up the match against Furi.
Furi's co-promoter Bob Arum revealed that they have received offers from the Middle East to host the undisputed heavyweight united war between Furi and Usik. After the Middle East offers to host this undisputed championship match, those previous plans may soon change.
Joshua's promoter Eddie Hearn revealed that while they are still working on a second-world battle between Usik and Joshua, a substantial concession fee will make them consider withdrawing from the negotiations.
"We're all still moving in the direction of Joshua vs Usik and Fury vs White, but there are still some people who want to see Fury's ultimate united war against Usik, and they're willing to spend a lot of money on it," Hearn said. If there's a lot of money on the table and there's a plan to satisfy all the boxers, it can happen, but the problem is not enough time. "
White was unhappy with the 20 percent honorarium he received in the title battle against Fury, and White had resorted to justice. Fury's bid for the match with White has been postponed twice, with the third being held on Friday.
Hearn continued: "Negotiations about Fury and Usik are ongoing, and negotiations are underway to pit Joshua against their winner, but White is listed as Fury's legal challenger, making the plan a bit of a mess. For now our plans are still Joshua vs Usik and Fury vs White, but the rest of the discussions are going on, and if I'm going to fight, it's two scheduled games. ”
Editors fight that Joshua's promoter Herne certainly wants Joshua and Usik to fight a second-time war, which is the first choice. After all, the $20 million concession fee is still no more economic than the economic benefits brought by Joshua and Usik's second war. But negotiations in the Middle East are also continuing, leaving the situation chaotic. The match between Usik and Fury is being negotiated, and the news, if true, would have disrupted a lot of plans.
The point is, is Fury ready to fight usik?
The previous report was that Joshua's concession fee was $40 million, and now a 50% discount is given, and 20 million will be satisfied. White's 6.8 million concession fees are also not small. White could actually buy it out with money. It's just a question of how the interests of Joshua, Usik and Fury should be weighed. Is there anything you'd like to say?
