    Eubank Jnr leaves Sky for DAZN. Benn fight very likely

    According to Gareth A Davies... 2min30.



    Big signing considering how much Sky put into marketing Eubank.

    But more interestingly, if true, looks very likely Eubank/Benn happens.

    Feels like a play from DAZN for marketing... Selling Benn out, but it'll get attention for sure.


    On another note. Gareth also says the money AJ gets from DAZN will fall of he loses.

    If Gareth reports on it, it's likely it isn't happening. At least I hope.

        Long term Eubank Junior was better off with Sky.

        This is not a good move.

          He's not been 100% right, e.g. the Benn/Eubank fight clearly hadn't been signed, BUT it was clearly being spoke about.

          In true Gareth A. Davies style, he overexaggerates the truth, but there's always some substance...

            The boxrec crew don't understand the impact his dad had on UK culture. He transcended boxing and is a household name. Mums, dads, grandparents, kids all know dad. He's a celebrity now.

            It's not actually about how good Jnr is, he just VERY well known.

              Why? He's probably going to knock Connor out and be seen in every UK paper and news outlet for months. It's a great move - if he gets the Benn (or an alternative, e.g. GGG fight)

                  True, this guy has no loyalty. Sky really pushed him as well, so this actually maybe last chance saloon for him. Probably not making friends.
