Why is Anthony Joshua the most hated Heavyweight?

[QueensburyRules]

- Cash cow
- Lots of casual fans
- British
- Associated with Hearn
- Fury and Wilder fans ****ting on him and then eventually uniting with each other to **** on him.

- - Flubber and Deyonce and their fans shyte upon each other to pronounce it gold.

Demographics matter less than you think. AJ was for years vastly more popular than Fury, and earned a lot more, even after his first loss, in part because he is much better looking than Fury (obviously) - he had a Wembley fight long before Fury. Regarding discipline, you probably have a point.

Fury resonates with working class people more than Anthony Joshua. And there are more demographics some may like Fury, some may like Joshua.

People see themselves in Tyson Fury. Joshua seems above all of that. This is what people dislike.

David Haye seemed the same way at one point of his career 'But he never showed the vulnerabilities of Joshua, and if people criticized or hated on him? Well he seemed to revel in such atmosphere'.

People will look to bring these people down. Haye smartly removed himself, once upon a time he was on his way to being the hero, this ambassador that Joshua became.

Haye soon as people started to turn on him after the Kiltschko loss, became the dark night.

I am not a particular big Joshua fan to be honest. I was not devastated or anything when he lost on the weekend.

I was devastated when David Haye lost to Kiltschko, and I am still bothered by his loses to Tony Bellew.

People enjoy and liked hearing stories of Ricky Hatton boozing. I have even come across people who told me stories of Calzaghe joining them for moments on their nights out.

Joshua is above all of that.

Note: Tyson Fury has also shown that he is effected by criticism and people turning against him. But unlike Joshua, Fury seems to be able to move on. Right now, he holds nothing back 'He is authentic'. He has probably come to acceptance that, certain people are not going to like him.

Joshua needs to accept he needs to understand this below. Sometimes that is what you are dealing with in society.

You all sound like a bunch of SJWs bickering over who's the most worthy victim. They are multimillionaire boxers, they can survive what a few cretins on forums say about them.

You fell for the haye spoof, i mean those bellew fights the very definition of ppv cash grabs, night time robbery even worse than daylight robbery

[War Room]

He’s humble ( one post fight interview doesn’t change that) handsome and WAS and exciting fighter to watch. Why now does everyone diss him ? The only reason I can think why is because of his Pro-Black speech in 2020

Manfactured fakery is why.

hes not hated really, hes just not the big i am anymore, hes more like the big wtf

[Mr Giggles]

Wilder is WAY more hated. And so is fury tbh. AJ is only getting hate now because of his antics after the fight

You don’t think race plays a role ? the only thing people can relate to Fury is his body shape. He’s literally a giant at 6’8 and he is ****y and a loudmouth when most Black fighters keep it real like Fury they are called classless and disrespectful and thugs

It's mostly 90% Hearn and 10% his heart stateside.

When AJ was at his height and Wilder was destroying the division, AJ Said guarantee me 50M on film and I'll fight him with no problems. Well Hearn wasn't down with that, even after confirming Haymen did submit an offer guaranteeing Joshua the money. From that point on some fight fans really turned on AJ, because it was clear that either he or his promotor was never going to let that fight happen as long as he was winning. He's never lived that down, especially here in the states, even though most US fight fans respect his fighting skills. He's viewed as not having that DOG in him in the US. The general consensus is that he's real skilled, exciting most fights, but a questionable heart for wanting to fight the real threats.

It kind of feels like the same thing with Fury except for the fact that Fury hasn't really pushed to fight AJ to the levels that Wilder did. I think AJ sounds more confident when a fight with Fury comes up than a fight with Wilder.

Fans are hypocrites. Wilder did nothing to make the Klitschko fight during his WBC reign. The days of boxers needing the approval of the US market to make decent money are long gone.
