Good signing for Hearn/DZN if it is happening. Hearn should be having words with somebody about Beterbiev.
Indeed so, however it may be possible to buy out the contract at a reasonable price given the turmoil.
I thought he was already with Eddie. Guess not. Good signing, Im guessing he isnt a big name in America yet but he will be a great addition to an undercard. Im sure Eddie has cast out a very big net with offers galore to see what that net brings back in. Some may not like it, Broner publically mocked it called it a joke, it looked OK to me. I really hope this venture plays out for Matchroom, Hearn, DAZN and who ever else is involved in it, if it becomes a big success we could end up with still huge money in the sport but American Boxing fans not getting stung for $100 PPV demands and still get good top quality Boxing. Eddie seems to be offering more Boxing for less money if it becomes a success, the mans a business man so take that how you want but from a British point of view hes giving us good nights just like he promises.
Probably for the best that wait until after the Chilemba fight to showcase him on DAZN, Chilemba is very tricky, talented and awkward and even if you beat him he'll make you look bad and the fight won't make for particularly riveting viewing. That's why I thought Chilemba was a bad choice for Kovalev's big home coming fight in Russia and why Mchunu was a bad choice for Usyk's US debut and debut on US TV. That said, I think Bivol will probably deal with Chilemba even better than Gvozdyk did.
Think Chilemba gets stopped again, prime Chilemba is very tricky but that probably doesn't matter too much at this stage.
