95% of this forum probably.

AJ making silly money and everyone on the undercards are also reaping the rewards.

Good news for British boxing.

Obvious move for him given the platform sky and matchroom have laid down for him, already a proven formula.

What does his mean for DAZN, were they part of the deal? His shows will be on ppv in uk so might not be deal with USA side?

Also does it stipulate how many fights in uk (obvious request from sky?). Wouldn’t surprise me if it’s 2 a year in uk and leaves an option for 1 fight outside. He may have enforced minimum of 1 uk though? He has talked about going to America, Africa , etc so that will be interesting to know

Just need wilder to find his pen now so he can start his new contract off with a knock out

[Fabes88]

So he'll be held 3 additional years in protective custody damn one could think Wilder was a bonafide ********* or some mass murderer by the fear he instills in this man

Tell your boy to sign the contract then no more protective custody

Well at least AJ is honest. He is more loyal and cares more about Matchroom Boxing than he could any of his fans. After all, it was not too long ago, when he told them in so many words, if they still feel that he should fight Deontay Wilder instead of Alexander Povetkin, then they and their mamas could all kiss the crack of his ass.

It's funny because this 3 year deal is still probably worth 10x more than what Wilder will make in his whole career.

Looks like Wembley stadium will be his home then going forward, British boxing is booming!

Then he has his endorsements, fight purses etc.

Some good PPV matches lined up going forward AJ -v- Whyte, Price, Povetkin, Miller, Chisora, Joyce, Fury (****ing ****). I'm sure the majority of them will accept what offer is on the table.....

Kind of disgusting to see someone on this board parading around about someone ELSES finances as a means to defend them. When all the while we should all be clamoring for the Wilder/Joshua fight. When it's all said and done, BOXING LOSES when these two don't fight.

Get off of your fanboy soapbox and take the AJ Jockstrap out your trophy case.

Not really sure why you think it’s against the fans, this deal means more likely fights in uk in front of his own fans. I’m sure sky have stipulated a minimum number
