Frank Warren makes a bold prediction about buying PPV in a rage-Joshua
Frank Warren gave his thoughts on the amount of pay-per-view revenue that a potential big fight between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua could achieve – and it’s safe to say the Queensberry boss has high hopes. hope.
Talking to TalksportWarren says he believes the all-UK heavyweight clash could garner two million buys.
“Once they confirm that they are interested and accept our position, we will work collectively to maximize the income between us.”
“It depends on the price of the war, who knows what price it will be. Personally, I think it can hit two million purchases.”
The hype surrounding Fury vs Joshua has reached fever pitch again in the past few days, caused by ‘The Gypsy King’ calls for AJ for the December battle on Monday.
After initially being dismissed by many fans as baseless trash talk, it seems that significant steps have been taken towards the fight, with an official contract with distributions was reportedly sent to Joshua yesterday.
England bout fans will be pleased to know that, despite more enticing site fees available elsewhere, Warren is confident the Fury vs Joshua fight can take place in the UK.
“It will be in the UK and hopefully in November. That’s what we’re looking at.”
“The way we made it work was that Tyson insisted the fight took place in the UK. So it must work. He wants to fight here and give his all for the England fans.”
Negotiations are at a very early stage, and as previous attempts to wage war have shown, optimism should be cautious until official announcements are made.
However, the noise coming from both teams seems to be positive with Eddie Hearn seems to “accept” the 40% of the purse offered to Joshua.
Momentum seems to be building towards this generation’s heavyweight fight taking place before the year expires.
