Comments Thread For: Hearn: If Joshua Beats Klitschko, He's The Biggest Star in Boxing

[stellen]

Who is there when he disposes of wlad? NOBODY. Wilder is too scared to fight anyone in the top 10, nevermind joshua. The fat gyppo will eat himself to death before he ever fights again. Little joey parker is far too small and geriatric ortiz is far too old.

I clearly proved to you many times over after that fight, that the "Prince' Charles Martin took a dive, lets not ruin this day rehashing old stuff...I don't want to embarrass you again.

To all you other bums quoting me you get no reply #Bombsquad

I'm not sure he took a dive as such. I think he was genuinely knocked down but i do also believe he could have got up. He didn't seem hurt, he was very lucid and purposely missed the count.

He definitely sat on the canvas knowing he was getting paid a lot of money and realised he can just end it now and still get paid. So he might as well have taken a dive.

Wow, i take back what i said. I've never seen that before. To be fair it did clip his chin though as you can see from the first gif there and Joshua is powerful but it does look very suspect still.

Anyway, whether he genuinely went down or not, he could have got up but didn't so it's suspect either way you look at it.

Almost as bad as when Malik Scott took a dive against Wilder. That was comedy.

Love how this fight has got the Wilder fans so salty.

Don't worry, he'll be back against 1-0 proven HW Tony Bellend soon.

Exactly. How many active boxers in the world today could sell out a 90,000 seat stadium so quickly?

I honestly think Pacquiao could still do it in his home country and Alvarez too

Not in my eyes. Tyson Fury is that man, beat him in his own backyard as well.

If Joshua beats Klitschko he is the man, not Fury.

He's already arguably the biggest star in boxing...Canelo is the only other fighter who has an argument. But no other fighters are generating the cash these two are. Something tells me Joshua is making more cash than Canelo on average though. That guarantee was solid! (12.5 million plus PPV sales) He also has a more expansive deal with UnderArmour than Canelo too.

I get that he doesn't have a presence in the US yet but that's not a prerequisite for stardom; boxing is global and he's pulling in the most cash right now. If he fights Wilder, Parker, and Fury over the next two years, we'll be talking Mayweather money. The British fans are too loyal to compete with lol (They'll show up for marginal fighters/champions; 80k showed up for Froch v Groves lol wtf)
