    Eddie signed Chisora. Sky have worked with Haye despite him using a gang **** joke to promote a fight. If BJS is in a big fight - GGG, Canelo, Jacobs - they'll want a piece of his action.

    If BJS wants big fights and wants to earn millions and millions then he signs with Matchroom, I believe it's that simple.

    Hearn would deliver a Golovkin fight, he would deliver a Jacobs fight and I believe he could deliver a Canelo fight.

    They (Sky/Matchroom) have the financial power and good enough relationships with other promoters and TV networks to get things done.

    Saunders is in the same gym Brook now, they must have discussed things like how much Brook actually got paid for the Golovkin fight and let's remember Hearn got Brook home advantage.

    Brook didn't have to travel abroad to get paid very well, Saunders did with Lemieux.

    It makes sense to move to Hearn now, get these big fights here in the UK but that said BJS seems a loyal person, he has always said he respects FW and likes working with him.

    It will be interesting to see what he does.

    GGG vs BJS 2.0 is the fight to make, preferably in either in the UK or Kazakhstan (yes there was talk of that happening).

    More than that its that very nasty sour personality he has ,very much the successor lite to freddie mills and it wouldn't suprise me at all if within the hidden confines of his travellers community he has impunity to engage his bullying control freakery and sadism we have seen hints of over others ...bj goes against the modern image and casual fan geared product hearn and smith have cultivated so well.

    Your regular streer tough guy thing like dillian whyte-chisora,haye-bellew is great business....its just street dudes keeping it between themselves....theyre not gonna start on a random person...

    With bjs its sinister ,nasty and creepy ..u feel some random weaker innocent is the first person theyd start on.the criminal records of his immediate familial background ,promoting a bjs in a big event youd get the thugs in his community looking to kick off with other to make a name for themselves....its not a potential golota-bowe or tyson-holy situation but far worse imo like you read about the traveller kick offs that you read about randomnly breaking out at petrol stations that end up in stabbings and deaths.

    Tyson fury comes from a similar background but he has a inate articulation,humour and humility overall ,is an exciting fighter a hw unlike bjs,and also has two tough experiencd tough guys in his father and uncle to ensure none of his community kick off....with saunders he himself is a bully and thug and it shows in his ten year old son who punched a fighter in the groin,kicks off ,hogs the camera.....multiply that by 200 adults if bjs starts getting sky sports news coverage and promotion.

    Eddie Hearn was trolling Warren when he mentioned BJS had 1 fight left on his deal. Warren whenever his interviewed is obsessed with telling everyone that Joshua only had a few fights left on his Matchroom deal, he never shuts up about it!!!

    First thing I thought when I heard the interview... thought it was just Hearn getting one back.

    However would love to see. I reckon he could get Golovkin back over here for BJS
