BTW, where did you view all those contract details?

The fight doesn't merit PPV in the US.
Ruiz-Joshua 2 will happen at Wembley, get pushed to the **** for Sky Box Office, ... and then things could get interesting.
If it's a late fall fight, depending on the weekend, you're up against college football heavy. Still, you usually end up with a couple dud weeks each season.
What's to say that Showtime/CBS doesn't pay a premium to simulcast the fight for Showtime International?
Heck, FOX may be comfortable with airing the Sky Sports feed (though I doubt it).
Won't be PPV though

One thing about Hearn and Joshua is this, they are not dumb truck or lack business sense when it comes to money, if FOX or Showtime offers them more money than what DAZN is putting down then they would go with FOX/Showtime, none of these “Loyalty” crap. They aren’t slaves to some random executives like that.

Originally posted by Ray* View PostAccording to sources the contract is iron clad. So no way he is getting 50m, but am sure Team Joshua would accommodate some of his wishes. They would play nice just to keep him sweet.
