Anthony Joshua Fight

[HarrogateMackem]

Genuine question for people on here. Are people planning on watching it tomorrow, since its in Saudi Arabia and obvious sportswashing? Or do some see it as different to Newcastle in some way/ not care about either Newcastle's owners, nor this?

 

[Visiting owl]

On free in Bulgaria.

I will be watching.

 

[MackneyHackem]

Might end up watching it but refused to pay for the PPV. Not exactly a grand gesture admittedly.

 

[Chubbs]

Think the 27quid price will put a lot of people off rather than the sportswashing.

 

[RokerLegend]

I'll watch it on a dodgy stream. No way would I ever pay for a PPV

 

[Brett]

I’ve told my mates I’m not watching, didn’t watch the Saudi Grand Prix either

 

[FootballFan]

Boxing thread lads reckon its nowt to worry about

You’re allowed to criticise something without boycotting it.

 

[League Wan]

Erm the majority won't pay a single penny for it. however it's reported Joshua will 'only' earn £30m

 

[Onslow]

Anyone who pays for a PPV in this day and age are mental like.

 

[black-cat]

The amount of people coming out on social media in support of AJ given the backlash since his BLM comments is annoying like. "Support him cos he's British" ... Literally told people not to shop in white owned stores etc. I'll be hoping Usyk does him like, and think he will.

True, but boycotting would undermine the sports washing attempts completely.

Half of pure football are boycotting the world cup, or so they say.

If I could be arsed I’d write a list of those and then cross check them in November.

If people want to boycott then that’s fine. But I’d much prefer that those that watched criticised it (and didn’t fear being called a hypocrite)

You’ve never made any sense, I can’t be arsed with you

 

[Lambchops]

On free in Bulgaria.

Free to air in cz aswell so will tune in

 

[sponge]

Won’t be watching but not due to a boycott, just hate boxing, I won’t be boycotting the World Cup.

Be careful how you answer this, the Saudis might jail you for 34 years.

Be more tempted to watch if it was a Saudi showdown, Joshua vs Wraith
