    Whilst you're right, it would also be right to point out Sky's biggest show of the year was a Matchroom card with AJ. I don't think DAZN benefits greatly from AJ moving over now but we'll find out one way or the other soon enough.

    Jews have money. "How dare you say that! Off with his head!"

    Let's all just calm down.

    Too sensitive you are.

    Besides, Hearn has great reason to dig at them when hes got Canelo in his corner. You really think what BT or sky have compare? The biggest star in Boxing is Canelo. Eddie promotes Canelo... cotton on.

    He’s not gonna shag you pal.

    And Canelo fought on BT last year. He’s not exclusive to Matchroom, he signs 1 and 2 fight deals. Cotton on.

    Peddie overpaid him to fight Bivol instead. That went well.

    Canelo wanted that mate. Wazza would have charged you 40 sovs for a Fielding rematch, which you as a good disciple of his would have paid :)

    Where is the line drawn on pay-per-view prices?

    Joshua vs Molina, Breazeale, £17

    Joshua vs Takam £20

    Joshua vs Pulev £27

    Joshua vs Usyk £27

    Fury vs Chisora £27

    This kind of argument is ridiculous. Canelo probably doesn't know anything about BT, Sky or DAZN in the UK. DAZN global yes, because he helped to launch it through Golden Boy - but let's not pretend he sits in the silk pyjamas supping Hennessy and thinking "wonder if my PPV will be on BT next year"?

    So this means after all this he was out of contract?

    I'm just happy that it looks like he's resuming his boxing career after a long break - whether it's for Matchroom or Boxxer I don't care.

    He was looking a bit better then reverted to type against Cieślak last time out.

    Will surely want to impress now he’s on Sky to back up his self-worth…
