    Is Wilder vs Joshua in Vegas a requirement? For boxing fans?

    Not feeling Joshua's vibe saying he doesn't have to fight outside the UK, or Hearn saying American fans are going crazy for Joshua.

    First thing's first, I don't have a problem with Joshua fighting in the UK unless it's against Wilder. It's just the defacto to stage Wilder vs Joshua in Vegas don't you agree? If Hearn's theory is correct that American fans are piling up for Joshua then then it makes sense for the bout to be in Vegas... and get an immense Hatton effect.

      Not a requirement, but when AJ says he doesn't have to go to the US to raise his profile instead of saying I'll fight him anywhere suggests he's going to be a big diva with duck tendencies

        I think the fight would do much better financially in England

          Youre assuming Wilder would want the fight to be in Vegas, I'm sure he'd want to fight wherever he'd get the most money aswell.

            Joshua is going to bring in 90,000 fans, and if he wins this fight, become the face of boxing.

            Why the fuq would he fight in the U.S. for a smaller crowd when he can fight in his home with all of his real fans and still receive a fat payday?

              The place is irrelevant as i cant see wilder ever having the guts to get in the ring with joshua. Have you seen his resume?

                They can fight wherever they want as long as they fight.

                They would make more financially fighting in England selling out 90,000 seat stadiums. You won't get that kind of sell out here in the U.S.

                Accommodations can be made for the fight to take place during prime time for the U.S., but if it's about both guys making the most money then England is the best place to fight.

                If they don't care about making the most money possible then yeah, they can fight in Las Vegas, New York, Texas, etc, etc........
