Is Tyson still barred from entering the US due to the ties to the Irish mob guy?
I know that's the reason his brother had to cancel the second attempt to fight Jake Paul.

Whether Usyk has the belts or not, Fury is the far more accomplished of the two.

He's actually not. Usyk was an Olympic Gold Medalist a fully Unified Lineal Cruiserweight Champion and now has 3 of the 4 belts at Heavyweight while fighting men much bigger than him. Oh, he's done all this while being a road warrior and going to the other fighters hometown to fight.

He has 3 belts based on one win. He's a strong fighter no doubt but he's not nearly as accomplished as Fury. Stack his resume against Fury's and it's not close.

Usyk's work at Cruiserwreight and Heavyweight is superior to Fury's work at Heavyweight. Throw in the Olympics and it makes it even worse. Do you people even watch Boxing?

You can't laud him for fighting "bigger men" and use that as some sort of qualifier when we are comparing two heavyweights. Fury will take care of him if this fight actually happens. Very little question about that.

The 'bigger men' doesn't have jack to do with it it just makes it more impressive.
Go look at what Usyk did in The Olympics. Then go look at what he did at Cruiserweight then go look at what he has done at Heavyweight and compare that to Tyson Fury's 34 fights. There is no comparison. None.
He very well might but we don't know that yet and Fury not wanting a rematch clause might sabotage the fight and we won't get it. Usyk already called Fury's bluff and agreed to the absurd 70/30 offer.

Not to mention Usyk's incredible amateur pedigree. He had over 300 amateur wins.

Fury's whole resume is a win a boring UD win over Wlad Klitschko and 3 fights against Wilder who is extremely limited. Fury had a ton of domestic fights against cab drivers, street sweepers, and other bums.

To be fair that is the heavyweight division outside of about 5 guys at any one time.

True statement

Tyson Fury gets 70% because his name is what sells the tickets and pay per view.
He should be getting 90% of the money.

It's is his home fricking stadium. Are you saying that Usyk couldn't sell out the largest stadium in Kiev?
And Brits will buy anything as an excuse to get shite faced. Hell, look at Anthony Joshua, Ricky Hatton, Frank Bruno, Naseem Hamed.... The list goes on and on
