Bellew v Usyk

[smashup]

Usyk doesn't need any help from Hearn to beat Bellew.

Probably doesn't but showcasing your new potential "global superstar" won't look good if he happened to lose his first fight on his new network.
Bellews last fight and we know Hearns a slippery fucker so just makes me wonder if there's a safety net already in place and it's all been agreed already.
There's been no talk of fight purses etc that I've seen so far which makes me wonder even more.
Usyk looks good winning on points against a name fighter to launch his name on two huge global networks, Bellew retires a rich man with his brain cells intact.
Everyone's a winner.

All entirely possible.

Purses are never revealed in Britain, that's an American thing (papers will guess at them, they're never official).

Also Hearn's contract with Uysk is not exclusive, it's in conjunction with K2 Promotions, probably a three fight deal which is standard. The whole idea of signing with Hearn is he's the ticket into the heavyweight division (Joshua) and currently has a "billion" quid to play with.

The purses for both Haye/Bellew fights were revealed before the fights, Joshuas purses are usually revealed before fights, Parker, Povetkin are both recent examples that 100% were.
Infact loads are.
UK or US makes fuck all difference no one does more than guess the exact purse but we get a pretty good idea beforehand who's getting the lions share.
Usyk fighting on Sky/DAZN exclusively against Bellew is my point and I don't see how anyone moves forward (Usyk) as planned if he loses to Bellew.
This is boxing the most "honest" sport going remember......

For sure we get guesstimates and rumours but nothing offical, it's totally different in America as the commission officially reveal them.

For example - the Nevada Athletic Commission (Las Vegas) publish a breakdown of the entire card. Like this -





The BBBofC don't do this and promoters never officially reveal them. The same with PPV figures, the TV companies/promoters never reveal an official figure here as the networks always do in the States.

I wanna see the Rhino's public workout

I am sick to death of hearing Bellew refer to himself as a fat fella from Liverpool

[Memphis]

I fully expect Bellew to get mangled. But a small part of me would love for him to chin Usyk out just to see how quickly the ‘second best cruiserweight in history’ mob can do a u-turn.
