    Showtime is not going to make it an afternoon PPV; that'd make almost literally no sense. Espinoza may have the juice within the company to move the matinee showing to CBS, though (paired with an evening card and re-air on Showtime).

    Only way Joshua likely has a piece of DAZN at this point would be if he ended up getting a piece of Matchroom Sport with his new deal, which I doubt.

      Pretty sure cheapest tickets were £70 front row were a lot cheaper than £1300 though

      One sold out in a week the other still hasn’t . Too greedy
      The hard sell hasn't happened yet, the walkup sale is a regular thing, they've already sold most of the tickets for the venue (based on the seating map), and the fight is still a week away.

      Too early to tell, tbh

        No, it could make sense to even do it in the afternoon. Even if they get 300k buys it would be huge. Espinoza is no fool.

          When, in the history of PPV, have you ever seen an event staged, let's say 3pm in the US, on pay per view?

            When has there been a fight this big taking place in the afternoon? Espinoza pointed out just that.

              Lol. They will offer Wilder a fair %, then the reverse for the rematch in America, once he wins....

              Which is ironically, what he's been offering since June.

                got my doubts

                that fight is just about in the " believe it when I see it " pile

                Fast Eddie will pull another fast one

                  So this means if Wilder is out boxed by Fury he's still getting the decision

                    Just shows how desperate Joshua is to get him in the ring doesn't it? The so called coward has made many offers.

                    Wilder only ever made one offer, and even that was dressed up for a PR win what with refusing meetings.

                      The person isn’t listing the correct price for seats

                      Ring side seats for Joshua’s last fight we’re going for £3000 pounds

                      Cheapest seats was at 80 uk pounds

                      Wilder has never been on ppv in the USA until now which is going to flop

                      His tickets are on sale on groupon too which is embrassing.

                      Joshua is the draw in the fight, not wilder. All wilder is the b side clown who keeps yapping

                      Joshua is the draw in the Uk and USA

                      More money is in the uk as it will probably do 2-3m uk ppvs

                      It will be a Great day

                      Joshua unifying the belts sending that clown back home embrassed
                      Tickets for Joshua vs Parker AND Povetkin were £40 and up. You're talking out of your ********. If you paid £80 for the worst seats in a giant stadium then you got ripped off.
