Fury wants to fight whoever, fight a former UFC guy, argue the toss with the Pauls, claim to want to take 50 youtubers on, well let him go and do WWE and let the boxers do their thing. Fury is more than happy with the way things have turned out, he gets to take an easier fight, keep his no loss record intact. Usyk will fight mandatories, fight whoever because he's the guy who will have a legacy in the sport.

Saudi money? Jesus H Christ, do you actually know why the Saudi deal fell through?
Yeah, because apparently Fury asked for too much money. Anecdotal of course though. Look, you are entitled to believe what you like, you see honour, legacy etc, i see money and business at this level of boxing, and Fury maybe attempting to age usyk out a bit, like canelo did with GGG.
