    I don't think he needs to build in America. Americans know who he is. A few friends work at bars and they said the phones were ringing off the hook of people calling Saturday morning asking if they were getting the fight. They said that's never happened for Klitschko before, and people kept calling it "the Joshua fight" on the phone. I hope they make this fight next.

      I can tell your a black guy that only gives black fighters props.
      You made no mention of Chavez Sr. De la Hoya, or even Pacquiao.

        Make it happen! Still trying to figure out how they could make this fight financially attractive in the US market.

        The live gate would do well, but I have no idea how to gauge the PPV potential at this point.

          Joshua is the HW champ with the most belts. Wilder will have to go to England to fight for them.

            I'm so glad Joshua won and not Klitschko.

            Now the momentum the heavyweights have built up can keep going. Lots of fresh matchups to be made with Fury, Wilder, Parker, and Ortiz.

              I don't think it's wise to "let things marinate" especially when you're talking about heavyweights. One punch and the game is over! If Klitschko doesn't want a rematch, then LET'S GO!

                    Wilder is totally unknown in the US, his ratings on terrestrial TV were ridiculous.......why should Joshua ever fight him in the US? A rematch vs Wlad would make more sense for AJ.
