Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua, DAZN Announce Long-Term Agreement, AJ Leaves Sky Sports

Never seen such a second rate talent get such first rate treatment. You’d think he was p4p, undefeated, and tearing through the division like a young Mike Tyson.
he should thank G-d he was born into this era and not the 90s where he would have been an already vanished contender at most. If and when Usyk gooms him, I wonder how the deal will then proceed

Agree. I think the good looks and the fact that his career got off to such a good start accounts for the treatment.

They must have a lot of confidence that Joshua beats Usyk because I personally see Joshua's stock plummeting with a 2nd loss to Usyk.

My immediate thought as well. They should've gone with a 1 fight deal to start because if AJ does lose, especially if its bad, his career as a cash cow in this sport could be over.

[NachoMan]

Eddie Hearn can get bum AJ a 50M/year contract off a humiliating loss but couldn’t get Haney or andrade a decent fight lmao

AJ might be a flawed fighter, but he's not boring AF like Haney and Andrade.

He spent years talking about loyalty lol

Dazn also sold tales based on no ppv didn't they. Bet the page on their site mentioning no ppv has disappeared now.

He has been loyal... To Eddie. Fair play to the guy.

I'm sure the figure will be alot less once he looses again.
Dazn can't be that dumb, can they?

There has to be an out. After losing twice in a row in world title fights his career should be circling the bowl and ready to be flushed as an A side world level fighter. I used to think the PBC was washing a drug syndicates money but after seeing the DAZN deals it looks similar to me...

[brettWall]

British fans would gobble up any fight. Why is this even a big deal?

AJoshua win or lose to Usyk, AJ vs Wilder would still be watched by British fans.

So much ado about nothing. It's annoying.

[brettWall]

As if it makes a effing difference. SKY, DAZN, BT, who cares?

[wrecksracer]

look for a quick stoppage if Usyk gets in the slightest bit of trouble lol. It's the only way DAZN can recoup their money.

Mmm interesting. Been hearing all these rumours that Dazn is on its way out. Shot in the arm?

Where did you hear the rumours? On a forum? Twitter? Some talking head on YouTube who makes all his content in a bedroom?

You sound bitter about someone doing well for themselves in life? Good for him and his family I say.

Buddy FYI
