Comments Thread For: Hearn: Sky Rejected Fury-Klitschko - They See Joshua as The Future

[ThumperMcDougal]

Anthony Joshua is a marketers wet dream. Guys like Dana White and Vince McMahon who made their fortunes as glorified marketers see nothing but dollar signs with AJ.

The physique, the good looks, the knockout factor.....

AJ will be on a box of Wheaties before you know it.

HBO shouldn't carry it either. Use that money to make the next Crawford fight no-PPV.

Well, why would they want to televise a rematch of one of the worst and most boring HW fights in history?

Hearn chatting out his arse. He's gotten in bed with Adam Smith and seduced the guy into only showcasing Matchroom fighters. This entire year, Sky is showcasing zero top fights, either from the UK or from the US. Their cushy deal with HBO seems dead too.

Sky boxing quality is currently like BET or Spike in the US.

If another promoter wants to put a fight on Sky they have to go through Matchroom due to their exclusive deal. This is what Hearn said on one of his IFL interviews.

"For me, Martin is a stiff test for Joshua. Make no mistake. Martin is relaxed and slick. He punches accurately. He's tall, he's southpaw and he can box. This guy isn't someone you're going to hit and isn't going to hit back. AJ will be in a serious contest with this guy.-Peter Fury

YDKSAB!

I never knew i was Peter Fury.

So you're saying you know more about boxing than Peter Fury? You're calling Martin a bum while Peter was calling him a dangerous fight for AJ. Suddenly he's a bum because Joshua KO'd him? Typical Fury fan.

Fury fans called it a masterclass display. Fury's defense puzzled Klitschko. Hands down behind his back, chin out and Wlad clinches. Those feints will be taught in boxing gyms for generations. Better than the shoulder roll.

I'm far from being a Fury fan, but Fury's strategy and act were real school...

I'm not a Fury fan, nice try. I picked him to beat Wlad and think he's the top HW right now, doesn't mean i'm a fan.

I never said i know more about boxing in general than Peter Fury, but i certainly knew Charles Martin couldn't beat AJ.

Lol sign do you think Joshua promoter sees? Like you said he is a promoters dream, he now speaks when because he has been told to, he doesn't need to call anyone out or speak bad of anyone because he is the golden goose, everyone would want to make more money fighting him.

I don't blame them
