    You said AJ was a bigger draw anywhere in the world you f***ing moron.
    Did you not see his fight in the Garden with Ruiz? When did Fury or any American do that against an unknown fighter?

    Fury barely got a couple of thousand to watch him against unknown fighters. Americans don't even do that with known fighters either.

      Bob being honest here and on comments of crawford not being profitable. Fury not a big draw in the usa. Be suprised if aj vs fury did more than 600k here

          Stop...Fury on his own barely sold 5K tickets.

            He sold 5K tickets when fighting fighters we haven't even heard of. Let alone in the US. But Wilder, as the American, was doing poor numbers in viewers and ticket sales. He couldn't even sell out a small arena. But in the Fury fights, that's when the ticket sales went up alongside the viewers and PPV.

            The only time Wilder had a sell out was the second Fury fight. That's when the Brits went over in force.

            AJ though, in his first fight in the US, and against an unknown opponent, did much better than your fighters did full stop. How many fights would they need to have to make that much money in tickets sales? Who has made that much money in ticket sales that is an American fighter?

            I'm all ears.

              Don’t know about a million in Uk, because I think most have sky sports, but probably won’t be miles off that if promotion’s tight.

              300,000 in the U.S where no-one knows Whyte? Fantasy land

                  Wilder had better viewership figures in the US than Joshua.
                  ​​​​​​
                  That's why him getting 50/50 against AJ was a legit consideration.

                      Barkley's holds 19 thousand. That would be just over half if it had 10 thousand there. As i say, poor numbers.
