Prince Charles is being paid 8.5 million dollars for Joshua fight

I can't actually believe this to be true. The man won the belt by having another man tear his ACL and this would literally retire him.

[Hype job]

I'd like to see Martin win as I don't rate aj. He can bang but so can most fighters.
Martin, from what I've seen of him moves like a monty python character pretending to ride a horse.
If aj wins then we know what's coming. If Hearns laid out that much he'll want a return x 10.
No haye, no fury..Fuk he's already talking about 1st defence against whyte
Dillian is ok but shouldn't be fighting for world honours at this stage of his career.
If aj wins it'll be soft touch after soft touch.
Fuk hearn & I hope Martin can get the job done

Look at Brook to see what direction Anthony will go in should he win the world title.

[Hype job]

Don't see it.

Whyte was a shorter guy who likes to mix it on the inside.

Martin is pretty much the same height as joshua and he's pretty much a pure counter puncher, I don't think thats a transferrable fight

Martin will time Joshua, who's attacks are predictable and leave him open

imo i think martin is going to catch AJ with the left hand when hes coming in

He's too slow.

It all makes sense

But Martin didn't need to take the fight, and Hearn saw an easy opportunity to grab a title for Joshua. Whilst true Martin may not make as much with most other opponents, he'd be eyed up by many

Not for 8.5mil thats for damn sure. 8.5 mil is more than mayweather/pacquaio opponents get lol.

Nope.

I didn't think SKY/Matchroom ever made their figures public...

[RED REP]

He isn't getting paid 8 million LOL

[Dean_Razorback]

if that's true, then martins has to be the luckiest champion in history, the way he got the belt is hilarious and now he is making almost 9 millions
