The Saudi's are launching an event at Wembley, which I assume, will be headlined by AJ. Dubois would be a good dance partner in front of a home crowd.

Makes the most sense and with a possible belt on the line too.

Hopefully AJ isn't going to swerve Dubois. It's looking like he might. Weird seeing that AJ was all geared up to fight Hrgovic next

Hrgovic deal is far easier to make than Dubois however. Defo far better for AJ also in terms of money.

Hearn also confirmed that AJ next fight will be against one of:

Parker
Zang
Dubious

most likely to be in Sept

Why easier ? Hearn and Warren are best buddies now. Should be very easy to make happen.

And AJ vs Dubois at Wembley would surely be a bigger money spinner than Hrgovic. Most casuals don't know who Hrgovic is.

cos no matter how good freinds they are its always gonna be easier to deal with yourself rather than someone else... plus that someone else needs a slice of a the pis.

AJ v Dubois would make more money but Dubious would want a bigger share since he would know he is part of the reason for the increased sales.

So AJ wouldnt really make any more money and the fight would be harder to make.

slice of the pie*

AJ's first priority will be IBF belt, if not then he will do what most boxers do and look for the sweet spot of the most money for less risk.

Oleksandr Usyk asked if Tyson Fury was his toughest fight and the hardest he's been hit: “Toughest fight - yes. Biggest punch - no. Because Derek Chisora, very tough guy. [One punch landed] on the gloves and I said, 'Oh my God.' Like a baseball bat.” [

Sounds like IBF won’t order the mandatory now because Hrgovic lost

He’d been waiting 2 years whereas Dubois only a week obviously so looks like they’ll wait until after Fury Usyk

AJ vs Dubois is the fight that most people seem to want next from what I've seen. Dubois's trainer was saying today that they really want to fight AJ next. It's a big money fight now and makes way more money than a fight with Hrgovic.

It would also give AJ the IBF interim title if he beats Dubois, meaning that he becomes IBF Champ if Usyk is stripped. All the incentive you could ever need is there for this fight to happen.

So if it doesn't happen in September as AJ's next fight you'd have to assume that AJ isn't confident that he can beat Dubois.

As long as AJ faces a step up in opponent from his last few fights, I don't mind who he faces. Dubois would certainly make the most sense for several reasons, but if he fights one of Zhang, Parker, or Kabayel instead, they certainly look as dangerous as Dubois does right now.

Just a brief warning to anyone who is ever thinking of signing up for a subscription to these charlatans.. don't!

I decided to buy the 5v5 PPV last weekend, which came with a month's subscription attached. Had no intention of keeping the subscription so just tried to cancel it there.. took me twenty fvcking minutes and jumping through multiple hoops.

On your account screen the cancel subsciption option is tucked away under drop down menus, then it's in tiny writing whilst all the other options are asking you to change your subscription. You are then asked why you're cancelling using a multiple choice menu before the next window again tries to prompt you into changing your subscription. When you again press cancel it then explains you have to either call them up to cancel or use their 24/7 chat service.

The chat service is unsurprisingly AI which asks you all the same fvcking questions as you just answered on the website before finally redirecting you to a human being (allegedly). Unless you prompt them you'll be sat there looking at a screen for hours and when you do finally get this alleged human replying to you they again go through all the same boolshit and rigmarole the website and previous chat bot did, asking you why you're cancelling, offering you a different subscription etc.

By far the worst customer experience I've ever had and I'll be warning anyone who will listen to stay away from these shady cvnts.

DAZN that is 😅

I've never subscribed and I never will. It's unsurprising that they make cancelling such a lengthy process. I am sure there are people that would give up, midway through.

Just get IPTV for crying out loud

I bought the Fury Usyk fight with TNT Sports Box Office and it was a nice smooth experience. With no need to cancel anything after.

I did first look at the DAZN option and it looked like utter BS as they wanted you to buy the fight but also get involved in a subscription, so I steered well clear. Glad I did now.

I've still had events and football matches that have lagged or completely failed me after paying guys for their IPTV services.

It's just been unreliable on too many occasions for me to rely on it.

I've never had any issues aside from the occasional lag, which I can live with.

Riakporhe proper hype job gone wrong

Knew CBS would win that after Simon Jordan predicted Riakporhe to win.

Seriously though I had an inkling CBS would win anyway, he just seems like he's had more momentum coming into this and has been a bit busier.

Both guys are domestic level in my opinion.

I hope we don't see Okolie vs CBS 2.
