Wilder is 36-0 with 35 KO's yet he's not a star?

[BWC]

Basically.....

He'll get plenty of play now that the sport needs some more box-office stars. The boxing and sporting media have to work to get your name out there. A good rivalry with Fury would help..

It's such a shame that Fury is tied up with a Wladimir rematch. Fury-Wilder could have been made by now and that would be a ****ing massive fight.

Wilder might come through Povetkin yet so it might still be possible. Its not likely but its not beyond the realms of possibility

Fury vs Joshua could be possibly one of the biggest British fights ever if both come through their next fights

[MrRolltide91]

If he were the one to defeat wlad instead of fury, I'm pretty sure he would have gotten a lot of recognition

[MrRolltide91]

Due to the stereotype of "american's only follow americans".... many think that americans know nothing about other countries etc.

American's KNEW that Wlad was THE champ. They know that Wilder didn't beat wlad... fury did.

Yep and I'm pretty sure if wilder would have defeated wlad.



He would have been everywhere.


Commercials, tv talk shows, etc.

Joshua is already a bigger name than Wilder and he's only been in the game for 5 minutes lol.

Wilder just needs a big win, then casuals will start taking notice.

You're joking, right? No one in the U.S. knows who Joshua is. Absolutely no one.

hells yea! I think he was just waiting for he can fight the winner in a unificatiion fight... but then they're gonna rematch so I guess after the povetkin fight.

Agreed.


Wilder can still become a star if beats povetkin and the fury/wlad winner

[RussB23]

Tysons opponents combines record for 1st 25 fights = 311-128

Wilders = 285-166

Really not that much of a difference in competition.

You're an idiot, Mayweather was a star whether you like him or not he clearly was and is still talked about even though he retired a couple of months ago.

How did he piss off a lot of American fans?

Dana White is a fool, he makes Bob Arum look like a nice guy.

Wilder fighting nothing but bums, and having no personality whatsoever is why he isn't a star.

No bro, you must be the idiot. You feel the need to attack on the internet lmaooo! If you learn how to think outside the box, then we can discuss this.

Mayweather was hated. I never said he wasn't a star. I said he was hated.

Explain how GGG is a star with ZERO resume, please.
