So, Hearm's daddy got his wish. No AJ vs Wilder this year. AJ is fighting another old and once dangerous eastern European.

[True That]

Well then, I guess I'll be subscribing to DAZN.

A young PED user vs an old PED user.

We get this trash instead of the fight everybody wants ............. well at least all the Wilder fans do.

[Rip Chudd]

No thanks. Let me know when the contract is signed for the 2019 fight with Wilder.

[BIPBAP]

This guy is looking past povetkin lol

[N/A]

So basically Eddie wanted to use AJ to roll out DAZN in the US

Correct.

I think it is Genius business wise

Correct.

but I think it was always his intentions to do that

Correct.

if the only way to watch this fight is thru dazn then count me out. i got other **** to do around 5pm on a saturday any way

We going to design this masks for the people. Everyone who attending AJ fight WEAR THIS MASK!

Always YELL BOMBSQUAD at his fights. He caint never escape The Bronze Bomber. HE SHOOK!

You're the one who is shook, you lost your pen! At the end of the day, you could of knocked AJ out and had the rematch by February and been $40m richer. Instead your incompetent team has cost you a huge payday. If Povetkin knocks AJ out, there will be a rematch and then mandatory's and you will have to wait until 2020 to get another shot at Joshua. And that's if someone knock you out in the next few fights.

Your team could of made this deal but you continued to price yourself out until it was too late. Let's hope you can still motivate yourself for your $2m payday against Breazeale as we all saw how close you were to getting stopped in your last fight.

^^^^^ BINGO less people will actually watch this fight just like less watched Crawford fight on ESPN+ then they could of had on regular ESPN. Joshua gets more views and pub fighting on Showtime then this ****** app.

Yeah, and this shows Hearn didn't have Joshua's best interest at heart because the fighter is being used to promote the promoter's platform instead of Hearn getting his guy's name out there.

Joshua has the power to put his foot down, but he didn't in this instance.

So they duck Wilder, try to blame it on Wilder, get exposed, and now want to charge US fans to watch AJ fight. Isn't Eddie Hearn supposed to be "good for boxing?" What "good" has he done (aside from protecting AJ from Wilder and now charging US fans for fights previously free)?
