Deontay Wilder is reportedly set to reject a $100m+ deal from US
broadcaster DAZN, via talksport.com.
The news comes as a blow to fans hoping for a guaranteed undisputed title
bout with Anthony Joshua, because it is claimed an agreement would have ensured
that fight took place in 2019.
Last week, fans were given what turned out to be false hope as it emerged
that Wilder would be meeting with the streaming service – who also broadcast AJ
in America.
Wilder is set to announce his next fight – which will be against Breazeale
regardless – today.
Speculation suggests it will be broadcast on Showtime pay-per-view in
America, as was his previous bout against Tyson Fury.
