That's not much support, drunkards, tea sippers, and patty whackers.

All of Britain will get behind a boxer who has another continent tattooed on his arm and believes British people are racially inferior

Shhhhhhh...we’re all supposed to ignore that, we have brexiters and UKIP/Britain first, Nigel Farage, Tommy Robinson support we have to keep for AJ

Translation: we want your PPV money again as we will be going all out to hype this up as it may be the last time he can fleece you.

You must be mistaken....ppv is dead, Eddie Hearn said so

If it's held in the U.K. Then DAZN just may want to take a pass on that one because hardly anyone will be watching stateside during that time of the day. Streaming an online media video matinee pay per view type of fight is risky on a Saturday afternoon.

Not sure dazn automatically has the rights to it. The fighter contract and network contact isn't the same. This isn’t a mandatory so there are no purse bids. PBC could conceivably get the rights to this fight since the champion is a PBC fighter

Yes, when it suits him saying that in the states to sell DAZN. Back in the UK he gives it 'we can't make the fights without PPV' ie because millions aren't enough, he want tens of million's.

Someone give this man a pint....well deserved beer on me sir

Well AJ did say, they need to get into shape. He called them out, told them he wouldn't sell his soul for gold. Never mind he sold it for less, by what ever they jacked Ruiz for the privilege. Believe people when they tell you they're scared.

Yes, you are absolutely right. DAZN doesn't have any rights to Joshua. He only fights on its platform on a fight by fight basis. So he can easily opt out of it; If he so chooses.

However, I don't expect him to. He'll probably just toe the company line and do as he is normally told by Matchroom Sport and Eddie Hearn.

Also, if I understand correctly, the rematch clause language was in the original contract. So I don't know how the PBC or any other promotional company can bid to the rights for that fight, if they did not help draft the original contract.

“At a venue to be determine”. Word on the street is the rematch doesn’t dictate where the fight will take place. Fast Eddie keeps chirping the UK but if it’s not in the contract Haymon will tell ol fast Eddie to go pound sand.

Such a snake oil used car salesman.
