When it was Joshua vs Wilder (Wilder had to sign a multi fught deal to get that fight). Hearn said Charlo would have to sign to DAZN to get a chance at a GGG or Canelo fight.
Whoever is willing to put up the most money should get the fight.

No thats not what Wilder "HAD" to do.. Hearn and DAZN were on the same bullshyt PBC on now.. and is why big fights dont get made
No he had to face 2 opponents of thier chosing and if he won then he got the Joshua fight. As opposed to Showtime / PBC giving Joshua a 50 million gaurantee with no conditions attached.
The PBC sent Porter to fight on ESPN to get a shot at Crawfords belt. Whoever has the bigger name or belt should get the fight on thier platform. One side can't be doing all the heavy lifting and then split the profits.

Charlo vs Tsyzu for the first fight, and I think Benavidez got the other January date. His trainer just did an interview that I posted earlier. May 6th would make sense for Wilder vs Ruiz.
Spence most likely will fight at Cowboy Stadium.
Charlo is 28th, Benevidez is prob jan 7.
They were aiming for bud spence on Feb 4 i believe thats why i feel this will be the replacement fight
I think those dates are for fights they got ready to go, or at least close. Maybe Tank vs Garcia?
Spence will probably be PPV in Dec. You think they would do 2 PPV fights the same month?
There was a post they have State farm arena booked for Dec 17th. I think its boots honestly. If it is Spence it may be the WBA mando since atlanta is cheaper than Cowboy stadium and an easy sell

Thats what DAZN WANTED.. They didnt HAVE to send an offer like that. they were greedy and didn't want PBC involved. That was the biggest fight in boxing they could've co promoted that fight.... As far as the $50m offer to AJ, they never got far enough in negotiations to determine details like where the money is coming from or what platform the fight will air on.. All we know is they wanted the fight in America but they couldn't even get Hearn or AJ bytch ass to agree that they would take $50m
Porter had to fight Bud on ESPN because PBC didn't want to contribute any money to that fight and the WBO had to mandate it. They damn sure didn't wanna go to purse bid. They wanted TR to foot the entire bill cause they knew Porter would get his ass whooped. That wasn't a fight PBC wanted at all.. Same with Crawford vs Spence.
One side wouldn't be doing all the heavy lifting.. The purpose is to split the cost of promotion.. Each side has invested millions into their fighter.. Crawford was the highest paid welterweight as far as guarantee.. PBC welters get their guarantees capped off at $1-2M and a dream
When Tyson vs Lewis was 1st in serious talks and Tyson had to turn down the fight because he was signed exclusively to Showtime and Lewis( mandatory) refused to leave HBO.. I believe this was before purse bids came around.... Tyson was by far the bigger name but the fight didn't get made unitl Both promoters and networks agreed to work together.. Thats how the big fights get made They are trying to reinvent the wheel..
Years ago Espinoza was trying to get a cross production deal for Adonis Stephenson and kkkovalev.. Kkkovalev and Kathy Duva refused.. So we never got the fight. This is just history repeating itself where the promotinal companies are making the same mistakes over and over due to greed

was a pretty good video of Bill Haney and Paul Malignaggi discussing the Lightweight Division, Haney and Lomachenko...
