    EXCLUSIVE - Dana White in talks with ANTHONY JOSHUA!!

    With Dana White looking to get into boxing he's in talks with Anthony Joshua whose contract is up with Matchroom after the Parker fight.

    He's looking to shock the boxing world with signing up one of the sports biggest stars as his first major play in the game. A figure is being branded about in the hundreds of millions just to sign Joshua.

    Would it be good for the sport if Dana White became a major player in Boxing? If AJ signs for ZUFFA BOXING who are the other potential signings Dana could make? Some say SPENCE is growing very frustrated with Al Haymon as are many others.....

      Al Haymon's model only works for fighters who sell themselves...Floyd, Broner, etc.

      If you have NO attitude/personality and DON'T market yourself...the Haymon model is worthless.

      But I'm sure 30 year old Spence "knows better" since he still makes chump change and, despite being a fringe Top 10 PFP, has zero fanbase.

      Great strategy Errol. That way by the time you're 35 you'll be able to fight on a PPV undercard, maybe

          AJ probably earns more than what most UFC Champs earn...

            I would assume Zuffa boxing would be an actual legit organization that does random drug testing year round like the UFC with USADA

              Frank Warren also said they're looking to sign AJ after his contract expires.. But why would AJ leave 1 promoter to go to another? He's been with Hearn since the beginning before he turned pro.. And now he's the biggest star in boxing.

              If he leaves he'll do it to become his own boss. He won't sign with another promoter.

                I don't see any points why AJ should sign with non-british promoters... Hearn is the best promoter for him at this moment.

                  As long as Hearn has Sky, then it's the best platform for PPV in the UK.

                  BT Sport may be OK but we don't know how well he can sell on there.

                    I honestly don't see AJ leaving hearn and sky. The biggest star in boxing needs the biggest platform and he already has that.
