    I read some tweets that you might not appreciate, the messages from the UK fans seem to indicate that Josh Taylor, even though Irish, is more loved in England than Tyson, since Taylor actually fights in the UK, for the UK. Here is the order of approval by the Brits : Anthony Joshua, Amir Khan, Josh Taylor, Ted Cheeseman, Carl Frampton, Dillian Whyte, Joe Joyce and Tyson Phooey coming in last.
    Taylor is Scottish, not Irish, and he fights in England because that's where the money is.

    The average man on the street will recognise Tyson Fury. Ask them who Josh Taylor is and they'll look at you like you've just asked them to solve nuclear fusion.

      Hmm, I dont know denium, Tyson is fighting at 3-4am in the UK as hes always fighting in his adopted home, the USA. However Taylor, has been on primetime on a regular basis. But I just remembered, Anthony Joshua and Eddie Hearn might be the only reason that Tyson enters the minds of the Brits ; I guess its because A.J is always being asked on SKYSPORTS and popular British T.V shows about winning the green-belt -- the only time I seen Tyson Phooey on UK TV was during morning shows to sell his crummy books.

        More Brits tuned in to watch Fury vs Wilder at daft o'clock than they did to watch Taylor fight Prograis during prime time,

        HWs are always #1, nobody outside of boxing hardcores cares about light-welterweights

          I remember when Tyson fought on Carl Frampton's undercard, HA! What were the numbers for Tyson in the UK when he fought Otto Wallin? Sure, I get it, the 'Bronze-Bomber' Deontay Wilder helped Tyson's numbers ; the UK and the millions of A.J's fans knew Deontay because of all the hype that failed showdown got. These are the facts denium, Tyson is only known because of Anthony Joshua.

            After Fury knocks Joshua out, everybody will know exactly who he is, the greatest HW of this era.

            Deontay probably twerking himself to sleep right now dreaming about the ass whupping Tyson put on him.

              Why are you two children bickering about which fighter has the most casual Boxing fans? I think the BBBofC are taking much more than that in to consideration.

                All informed boxing fans know that Josh Taylor cleaning-up 140 for undisputed supremacy tops a Fury victory over Anthony Joshua, who has been stopped by Andy Ruiz and quit. Taylor has less than 20 fights, and has not been suspended, although, you can argue that when police found crack up his buttcrack when he got arrested for being belligerent and racially abusing a Punjabi bouncer, that the BBBofC could of banned him like Tyson, but I digress.

                The point here is that, denium is insecure and feels that Taylor is a threat to Tyson as the most accomplished UK boxer.

                  The BBBoC are a bunch of melts, they're biased against Tyson because he told them to **** off and won't give them any sanctioning fees.

                  It's funny how Tyson won the global FOTY award yet doesn't win the British one.

                    Taylor hasn't really done much other than barely sc**** by that yank bum Prograis or w/e he's called. What's Prograis ever achieved in boxing?

                      Tyson has 1 razor-thin overrated win over Wladimir Klitschko, who ******. Taylors win over former world-champions : Miguel Vazquez, Viktor Postol, Ivan Baranchyk, Regis Prograis, in two years in the WBSS, along with the fact that Josh's last five opponents all have been world level and undefeated, tops a draw, and a premature stoppage with questionable officiating and odd circumstances over Deontay 'Bronze-Bomber' Wilder.

                      Having said that, Jose Ramirez is going KO Taylor, so you can chill denium, you should be worried about Anthony Joshua, not Taylor.
