Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua Feels Wilder is Not Big Enough: I'll Eat Him!

[Robbie Barrett]

What you are saying is BIG risk LITTLE reward for Joshua. Sad xommentary when the championship is all about money and has little to do with who is the deserving champion.

Boxing is entertainment, boxers are prizefighters. Fighters fight the biggest financial fights which 99% of the time are the biggest financial fights because the fans want to see them. Joshua will fight Wilder if Wilder realises his worth and position instead of demanding ridiculous money. Wilder is the one pricing himself out. He made $1.4 mil yesterday and was demanding $7 mil to fight Whyte. Delusional.

How sad these fans were encoruaging all the other past great fights to happen but they keep making excuses as to why AJ Wilder shouldn't happen yet. I didn't see anyone worrying about how much Floyd or his opponents get paid when his fights were being made just as long as fights were getting made. Lol this is some crazy shiet

Anybody can fill a stadium if you are charging 5 dollars a head. The big money is and always will be in the US and that is a fact. After last night I really don't think wilder even needs to fight joshua for the big payday. Americans was just waiting on a little validation of his greatness and last night we finally got it when he destroyed a former world champion.

$5 a head?

Wilder couldn't fill a stadium if it was free.

There's no money for Joshua-Wilder in the US, both aren't PPV fighters over there. In the UK Joshua sells 1 mil+ PPV's.

Move along ******.

“Weight doesn’t win fights, fighting wins fights”. You come in at a weight that you can produce your best performance at. Wilder is fast, explosive and powerful at 220 that’s why these guys are getting knocked out cold. They aren’t seeing the punches or they can’t react in time to evade the punch. He also throws punches in an unconventional manner, which makes it harder to predict what he’s going to do. You seen Joshua have issues coming in heavy, he looks slower and his stamina isn't as good. Weight can be an advantage if you’re considerably bigger than your opponent, like Klitschko did most of his career with holding. Joshua doesn’t fight like that, Wilder also has height and reach over him probably. If AJ gets caught, he’s getting knocked out and vice versa for Wilder.

5 dollars??

Cheapest tickets for Joshua vs Klitschko were £40 pounds before resale. There is absolutely no evidence that the money for this fight is in the US. None whatsoever.

The average ticket price for the event was $100 (the live gate made around $9 million), so your 40 pounds number can't be right, or there were a lot of free tickets given away.

You've made about 50 posts in the last 3 hours defending this AJ/Hearn ducking campaign. Your fandom has no limit lol Kudos for rolling with your guy, but he's at risk of taking that L (probably wouldn't be the betting favorite; if so the odds would be attractive going either way) and it's obviously killing you to acknowledge lol

There's a lot of ******ed Americans that talk absolute nonsense. The stereotype holds true. The average American is ignorant and thick as ****. I'm no Joshua fan rent boy.

[ELPacman]

They are both young. In their prime. Not exceptionally polished either. AJ does have a bit more skill but can be hit. Wilder is just a madman. Why the hell not make it now? AJ can sell out an arena fighting a tomato can, he sure as hell can make this happen.

You obviously are a fanboy for AJ, but it's fine if you want to act like you're not. Btw I'm American (a trained lawyer, that also holds a masters in business administration from an ivy league school). This is just boxing talk, don't confuse internet ****ery for real life. And i think its safe to say you'd meet the definition of "thick" for ignoring objective evidence that clearly runs against your arguments lol

keep it classy

If you're a lawyer and don't understand why Wilder needs to improve his draw for him to make sense for Joshua to fight, then i wouldn't want you representing me. Because you're thick as ****, no masters is needed to see that.
