    For Joshua v Miller in the U.S., the Maths dosen’t add up. It will be PPV in the UK on Sky, however why would DAZN Guarantee a big figure, for example a bigger licence fee than Showtime/Fox/CBS would give. When there’s no guarantee Joshua would actually get enough subscribers to DAZN to actually make the venture profitable.

    Is Eddie Hearn really going to stick Joshua’s US Debut or even Joshua v Wilder on DAZN over established US Networks ?
    I think it will hinder his visability a lot.

    Do you think Hearn should experiment with Joshua’s US debut on Fox or CBS who can reach +100M US Households and are both fully invested in Boxing. Prime Time US Debut in Vegas could be massive for Joshua’s Brand if they get it right and would make Joshua v Wilder massive
