Anthony Joshua trying to take Andy Ruiz Jnr to Saudi Arabia for the rematch tells a lot about how confident his team are about their man's chances in the rematch. This attempt to go chasing big money in the desert strikes me as a cash out by Team AJ'. They're out to make as much out of his career in case it all goes wrong for the British heavyweight star when he faces the WBA, IBF, IBO and WBO champion again. Click Here To Read More]
Actually old fish eyes is still Fury’s promoter. Arum & Warren both co-promote him...
Bob Arum said 'We will promote him in the US'. Fury has publicly said he will fight all his fights in the US, it is ESPN paying Fury.
So bricktop isn't making anything out of that.
Frank Warren lost Tyson Fury to Bob Arum and has now lost Billy Joe Saunders to Eddie Hearn. He's been close to breaking down in front of the camera.
Frank knows, the Saudi money is a big deal. If Eddie secures an £50-100m annual event with them, that's a big deal.
This is why Al Haymon has to be careful, if Ruiz ****s on the Saudi deal, the Saudis will blame Al Haymon (they're not dumb, they know he is pulling the strings) and that would mess up his chances of doing future events in Saudi too. That's a lot of money to miss out on.

I'm talking to you Eddie Hearn!
You used to brag about having $1 Billion dollars to use to make the biggest fight's in boxing happen.
Now you brag about the rematch being one of the biggest fight's in all of boxing.
The Mexican Warrior's will destroy anyone, any time in any place. Just pay the man!
You want to see the Slaughter in Saudi Arabia , well pay ANDY "The Destroyer" RUIZ.
Don't do Andy Ruiz like Lomachencko did Salido , low balled him after he slaughtered your hero , just to not make the fight. Don't black ball the real killer's , pay up sucka!
I never said Warren was a genius, no disrespect, but he knows discomfort when he sees it. He wouldn't poke fun at Hearn if he didn't think it would hurt. A little one upmanship.
when Eddie got the Dazn deal, frank was like 'pft i could give a monkey about eddie hearn'.
When someone asked him about the Canelo dazn deal, he's like "well it's good, they're going to get a good chunk out of matchroom's $1b, what is it, $350m?" (not word for word but something alone those lines).
You see just how bitter he is and it's even funnier when he's wrong.
let's be totally honest, frank is pissed off he's not making that saudi money himself. I don't like the saudis, but no promoter wants to lose that link, because if they're serious about boxing, they'll outbid anyone in future for super fights.
You don't turn your back on that.
Of course it is about money - it is also about Ruiz not wanting to fight in Joshua's backyard - so there it is. Frank seems to think making money is a bad thing - which explains why his boxer's are leaving him. Meanwhile Frank is happy to promote Anthony Yarde travelling to that shining light of human rights and fair play - Russia.
Like I said, I thought they were the same guy. Playing the same games.
How many deaths in Saudi Arabia are there yearly vs annual deaths in Mexico which was a fight site that Andy wanted I wonder if there are stats and how much more are they paying in Saudi
Frank losing fighters.

If there’s the chance you could squeeze an extra million dollars out of some deal - wouldn’t you try? His leverage is that litigation takes time, even if you have a weak case. Matchroom and AJ can’t afford to be idle.
That what it is mostly. For that money to be paid out A.R is needed. It can't be made without him. So A.R only leverage to hold things up as long as possible to get more money.....
Matchroom had to know this was coming so I don't think they will drag it out.

I once thought Hearn and Warren were the same guy. Then Hearn got bigger than Warren. AJ was Hearns big advantage. Hearn is desperate to get those titles back, and Warren is enjoying himself watching Hearn wiggle.
