    Joshua needs to fight Big Baby in the U.S. in order to build his name recognition in America.

    That will make him a more attractive opponent for American A-side Deontay Wilder.

          There is nothing Joshua can do but stay in the UK after these ratings. Nobody knows his ass here and Big Baby won't get him known here. There's only one way to conquer America. And that's to beat Wilder.

            Why is chlorafyl green, and why does it absorb blue and red light?

              I think the numbers are ok, especially considering :

              1) late afternoon start
              2) shown behind a paywall
              3) A-side was a guy that barely moves the needle in US.

              The casual american sports fan just found out about AJ recently via the Wlad fight. Wlad himself wasn't a huge draw here and thus, not the guy to put a non-American over with Americans.

              That being said...the fight will probably happen in the UK. It's a 50/50 fight so idc where it is. AJ going home with the L anyway lol

                His PPV Numbers in the UK are the most important number for him not the American Ratings since to be fair they really didn't promote that fight here.

                  Terrible numbers.. This pushes the AJ vs Wilder fight further back. That fight will not happen until AJ fights in the US and Wilder fights in the UK, I've said this for a while now. That fight has the potential to be the biggest fight since Mayweather/McGregor but at the moment it does nothing close to what it can.

                  This is a fight with an American and Englishman.. Neither AJ or Wilder is a star in the US and Wilder is unknown in the UK.

                    US numbers are irrelevant for negotiations in this fight. The US isn't bringing the money the UK is.

                      Agreed, the Wilder-AJ fight is the only HW fight capable of establishing the winner as a massive star in the US
