    Sky have outbid DAZN for rights to Usyk-AJ 2.

    Not sure whether DAZN have an option to match the bid but it looks like this fight is heading to Sky with DAZN only getting some international rights.

    Not a shocker - When the deal with DAZN was announced it was noted that Joshua wasn't a part of that deal. Keeping with Sky Sports is probably the right thing to do at this stage of his career.

    Hoping this means that smokeshow Anna Woolhouse is a part of the Joshua fights going forward.

      Yeah it’s a no brainer for AJ. The Sky PPV model has made him a fortune. Why trade that to fight on an app with maybe 10% of the audience Sky has.

        As long as it's on regular DAZN in the US, I'm happy

            I’m not sure how well this DAZN thing is going for Eddie Hearn.

              I’d say somewhere in between god awful and absolutely disastrous.
