UFC offers Anthony Joshua $500 million

[Boxiana]

I think “could” is the operative word in this one.

And don’t forget, Dana White is 100% full of shit.

Dont need Dana fucking up boxing. Piss off.

but i do like the idea of AJ getting paid 500 fucking mil.

It's about as reliable as me offering AJ 500 millions, as far as I know.

the slight difference being that we can assume they actually have 500 million.

UFC is so desperate lol

Im not sure why this is entitled UFC Offers....

Its a completely seperate company as far as i am aware, infact, Zuffa boxing is ran by the guys who sold the UFC

Joshua is a boxing champion and he is young. If he is able to unify and clean the elite of the HW division (which is totally achievable in 3-4 fights) I would like to see him transition to MMA. He is already a specialist in one martial art like Werdum once was in BJJ and like Romero was in wrestling. With proper grappling training for 3-5 years I see him being competitive against anyone in the cage.

Didnt Dana stay as president of UFC?

If so, thats a bad look for both him and the new UFC owners when their president is venturing into other businesess claiming to pay someone 500 mill

UFC's worth 4 billion and Dana is worth 500 million himself. It doesn't seem smart to give up an eigth of your net worth to get a boxing super star in the cage. That's not sustainable and it's just not smart.

I'm not sure if they're completely defunct, but they're if they're not, they might as well be.

Admirable attempt but ultimately mistaken.

Jay makes the money back with his new album and tour.
No worries there.

They still have 12 boxers on their current roster at the moment and numerous of athletes across the board including Kevin Durant.

the slight difference being that we can assume they actually have 500 million.

And still Dana's words aren't reliable.

 

[Gregolian]

I hope Joshua says yes to press the issue then if a fight ever happens he kneels down, taps the mat 3 times and walks away mocking Dana and flipping him off cage side.

This thread is great for identifying absolute casual noobs who think this has anything to do with mma or UFC or WME

 

[chiefwiggum]

Is Joshua the biggest star in boxing?

 

[PHATV]

Never heard of him. Does he train with Lesnar?

 

[ArtemV]

He pays Conor maybe $3 million for the Alvarez fight. Also, doesn't like paying the majority of his fighters (who deserve good pay, like MacDonald and Mousasi), but now decides to spend well over Conor's + Floyd's pay from their match.

Boxers such as ??
Genuine question, not trying to be a dick.

Also non boxers are irrelevant to the topic as I was referring to their venture into boxing

If you identify me as a casual noob when it comes to having anything to do with MMA/UFC/WME I proudly consider that a compliment, if I was a hardcore fan id be ashamed

And still Dana's words aren't reliable.

well that's an understatement.

Scrooge McDuck has offered him £1 Billion.

Fuck off Dana ya massive GIMP.
