Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk fight negotiations stall over huge purses

John Fury has confirmed his son Tyson's undisputed world heavyweight title fight could be delayed after talks stalled over the massive payouts for both men.

It has been all but confirmed that Fury and Usyk won't be fighting in the Middle East, where they would have earned monstrous payouts for the historic bout. Instead, it seems that the first undisputed heavyweight title fight of the four-belt era is heading for Wembley Stadium on April 29.

And in an exclusive chat with Mirror Fighting , Tyson's dad John said that both he and his brother Tommy were having issues with being underpaid. The younger Fury is finally getting a monster payday when he faces Jake Paul this weekend in Saudi Arabia, but it appears that Middle Eastern officials weren't willing to stump up for the heavyweight clash.
