Comments Thread For: Showtime Inks Anthony Joshua To Multi-Fight Deal

[ThumperMcDougal]

Deontay Wilder and Anthony Joshua exclusively... Plus Dexter reruns..... Do you need any other TV channels???

[The Big Dunn]

I am happy for Joshua but I hope this doesn't prohibit fights from happening like other network deals have.

Good move for SHowtime as the HWT division is more interesting now.

[MrRolltide91]

Hopefully Joshua and wilder wins their next fight

[TheCell8]

I wonder if he signed his contract before seeing those terrible DeGale-Molina and Bute-Jack numbers?

[Mitchell Kane]

Is there any info on the terms of the deal?

Ya'll know I love the UK boxing scene and think other than Mexicans, the UK fans are the best. But this is true:

Joshua is getting paid regardless of the ratings so I don't think he cares.

And if he turns out to be the next great heavyweight like everyone is predicting then the ratings will take care of themselves anyway.

Exactly people love the heavyweights


Smart investment by showtime

If wilder can get passed povetkin then joshua-wilder would be big. Lets see how the outcome of the coming fights come out. Wassup with Ortiz?

He's fighting Tony Thompson's and heavy cruiserweights over ob HBO. Don't expect him in with any of the better HW's anytime soon.

Lot of people celebrating Joshua signing with Showtime, why?


If you're a top level HW, why sign with any network when they'd both bid for your fights?
