Comments Thread For: Sky Sports Wins UK Broadcast Rights To Usyk-Joshua Rematch

Dont get why DAZN made such a big deal on signing AJ if his biggest fight to date wasnt in the deal, should have waited till after the fight to announce the ppartnership. Just made themselves look like losers now

They likely don’t have him under contract in the event he faces Fury either… reason it was no point in waiting to announce AJ fluff deal

If DAZN over paid for that fight why would they make money on limited subs in the U.K


A.J makes more money with sky’s fan base in the U.K this is no different from his normal procedure . DAZN loses out on some subscriptions in that region but gaining and losing that massive amount of money is not sensible,did you guys read the article ? 25 million to win that bid . If Hearn won that they’re actually talk about any firing of him .

Yeah mayne, yeah mayne Al Bob ludabella all showed that limey prick he that limey yo, eating crumpets yo, tea and scones yo

Now they gon put on real shows for the fans, USA style, you know how we do, Ruiz Jr vs Ortiz on PPV baby now thass American style, that just how we do!

Hahahahha...there you are. I was waiting for one of you to pop your head up. You have to be some inbred UK dude because even inbred whites in the states don't joke like this anymore because they know it makes them look ******. Just check out the graphic attached to him. It's a picture of a man fuqing a man. That's not cool actually it's demonic. We don't praise that in the states. Damn dude go get some help

Hearn knows he fumbled leaving sky sport, they done his dad well for years, greed sometimes makes us blind to the bigger picture,anyway it is what it is!!!!

And Saudi Arabia gets more exposure on Sky than it does DAZN.

If Sky have bid 25 million then good on them. No-one could really compete with that. If DAZN beat that bid they'd be throwing money away.

Presumably they'll pick up the fight in other geographies.

For a forum that loves talking about business it’s one that most don’t know what they’re even talking about .

Somebody explain this to me. Aj signs deal with hearn and dazn, they sell the rights to the saudis, then SKY massively over pay for the fight, well that profit goes to the saudis then right ? ?

and Sky keep all the ppv money because they already bought the entire thing with no deal direct with AJ ?

is that it ?

About right.

It's Business. The Saudi's own this right.

I liked Dazn a lot for the first little while. They had lots of cards and I found the undercards decent for the most part. Loved the fight/round select option and the fact that it was essentially on demand as soon as the broadcast started. Nice catalog of old fights to. One only needed to get past the awful broadcast team and there was a lot of upside.

What an absolute dumpster fire now though. I was ok with 100 Canadian for a year, but then they lost bellator cut boxing by seemingly 70% and nobody wants to cross the street to make fights with them.
