Eddie Hearn has declared that they're now "quite close" to agreeing a deal for Anthony Joshua vs Oleksandr Usyk. He said it's "very likely" to happen towards the end of the summer.

Saunders can go back to defending his title in Scottish leisure centres if he wants.  Say what you like about Eddie Hearn, he's made a lot of fighters a lot of money.

He definitely has.

As a Frenchman I do not have the same knowledge or relationship with Hearns as some here do, but as a boxing fan, I’d choose Hearn over Arum or Haymon. It seems that Hearns listens to his fighters; which doesn’t appear to be that common.
What do Fernando Hierro, Carles Puyol, Philipp Lahm, Andres Iniesta, Iker Casillas, Sergio Ramos and Jordan Henderson share in common?

In regards of DAZN I don’t like watching events on my phone or I pad. Prefer the TV. I’m a complete technology imbecile but I’d imagine you can watch DAZN on your telly. On Virgin media you can click on Amazon or Netflix and watch it on your TV like any channel. I’d hope I can do the same with this as I love watching the boxing.

Yep, just an app on the telly. Also decent to just log in on my laptop as my Mrs has no interest in anything but AJ (Weird eh? ;D )so when it's just run of the mill stuff I can watch in peace

I think a scaffolder would've beaten the Romanian.
Had Dubois 2 knockdown and win in 6 rounds. Knew the twat wouldn't get up. He wanted nothing to do with it.

Who's going to stay up any day of the week watching that? Stupid move to do it on a Monday morning. I'm not watching but just intrigued to see what happens. The fact that Mayweather is making millions off this is criminal. Reckon he faces Jake Paul next after Woodley takes a dive against him.

Seems a bit mad to me but then WWE do their PPVs on Sundays so maybe it's the best time for this type of thing?

Yeah, I reckon Mayweather will carry the tube for several rounds before getting a late stoppage. He is more than skillful enough to give the illusion to the dopes that will pay for this farce that it is competitive for a few rounds. Then he'll get another easy night's money for beating the brother in a 'revenge' fight or other such bollocks.

I don't think a fight with the brother is as marketable if Mayweather elects to stretch this clown out in 45 seconds  ;D

Remember, there are people betting actual money on a guy who has the skillset of a club fighter if we're being generous defeating a Hall of Fame boxer who is still in good nick. That illusion would get shattered if Mayweather decided to show everyone the real level in quality.

People do what they want, but the actual noise around this makes me sad. I would love Mayweather to perform at his true level, even though he is now 44, and inevitably one or two notches slower than a few years ago. He would beat this clown within thirty seconds.

But we all now what kind of animal. If I had to milk a cow, I’d call him: he is maybe the best sportsman on Earth to maximise his revenue, and I fully agree with most of the posters here, the man will make the show until closing the right at after a few rounds, just to give a show. That’s some way to run a business.

Think it's hard with there not being an officially sanctioned 'winner'. There can be a stoppage but there won't be any judges scores in the event of it going the distance.

What about having a wank, going to bed and setting an alarm for it?

I wasn't going to get up, just would've watched it in the morning after starting work, but my lad asked me if he could get up for it so I may as well.
