So he helped bring him up?

Yes.

I will change mine to a list of five fighters.

Anthony Joshua
Tyson Fury
Deontay Wilder
Andy Ruiz
Dillion Whyte

Probably the five biggest culprits, just sick of hearing about them every fricking day and they dont just fight. They fight once a year tops but its every fricking day we hear of their negotiations, call ups and the like.

Just fight ffs. Really hope Usyk cleans up and just fights like a man

Usyk can seek for less attention, but he doesn't fight frequently either.

I'm giving Usyk the benefit as a heavyweight as he has just started and most of his heavyweight reign has been under covid and him not wanting to risk his mandatory status. I am perhaps unfairly putting the blame on Joshua as to why they have not fought yet - but yes, if he beats Joshua and then spends a bloody year negotiating - then he joins the list. Plus he is genuinely funny.

Without trying to sound mean - lets be honest - does it matter if they "only" get a 10 million purse or a 50 million purse. Its still enough money to mean that their kids and grand kids will never have to work in their life, with the money they are earning does it matter if they have an immediate rematch clause (if the fight was good, the public will demand it again for probably more money than the rematch clause was worth) and besides can't they see that fighting 3 times a year for 20 million is better than once for 50 million.

Holyfield had 6 fights in 2 and half years before he beat Douglas. Was still young at 28 years old.

Usyk had 2 fights in 2 years before beating Joshua. Considering COVID and the Elbow or shoulder injury it was, that's not bad. Also being 34 when he beat AJ. already 6 years older than Holyfield was when he won his HW belts.
