    I think if AJ beats Vlad his name gains a lot of credibility in the US. Plus if it’s for the undisputed unified heavyweight championship.. that sells its self and will naturally make people interested. UK vs US, 2 Olympians, 2 huge guys with power and the highest KO ratios, 2 guys in their prime (None of the May/Pac bulls*it) it’s guaranteed fireworks and will end in a KO. Sells its self.

      Yeah but don't forget it would be 5PM over here when they fight, I doubt Showtime would put a PPV event if it's not in prime time

        I honestly don't think AJ vs Haye does more than AJ vs Wlad in terms of business.. same with Aj vs Wilder..
        Canelo vs GGG will probably do more in terms of $, not the # ppv. That might be AJ vs Wlad still..

          Joshua-haye isnt some huge fight in my eyes. Klit fight is alot bigger and significant for AJ..

          Canelo-Ggg is the biggest fight to be made.

                Excluding from the circus show that is Mayweather v McGregor.. Haye seems to believe a fight with him and AJ is the biggest fight on the planet currently. Its a HUGE domestic dust up.. but don't know about it being the biggest fight in the planet. What do you guys think?
                None of those.


                Fury vs Wilder, then Kovalev vs Ward II.

                excluding them as options is red K worthy.

Right now it’s between who AJ and Canelo fight. Poll indicates its GGG vs Canelo which is probably right at this moment in time.
                  The only way it's ppv in the US is if it's at 4am in the UK and then you're losing most buyers in its primary market

                    There are a few fights at heavyweight right now that would be bigger than AJ vs. Wilder, and that doesn't include the upcoming superfight between Joshua and Klitschko.

                    Mainly due to Wilder not being popular overseas and his paltry resume.

                      A fight between two undefeated HW knockout artists will almost always be the bigger draw , RARELY do you get that in a title fight . Should both guys win the upcoming fights it will be bigger than ANY fight below Heavy Weight .

                      Canelo vs GGG really is just a fight with 2 past prime guys of bickering who can beat who in a certain weight class and who offered what and who ducked who 2 years ago etc etc and its just going to mean little compared to who is king of the HW division ,this should have been obvious to why Wilder vs Joshua will in comparison be massive for boxing and the HW division again!

                      You can think what you want of both fighters but WE all know the entire boxing world will have much bigger coverage and anticipation for the Joshua vs Wilder showdown!
