Comments Thread For: Wilder or Joshua - Who Will Carry Boxing's Heavyweight Division?

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

By Andreas Hale - From Jack Johnson to Joe Louis to Rocky Marciano to Muhammad Ali to Mike Tyson, boxing's popularity has always been tied to the happenings in the heavyweight division. Of course, there are outliers that include Sugar Ray Leonard, Oscar De La Hoya, Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather, but the mainstream appeal of the sport has much to do with the health of the heavyweight division...

I'd love to see the winners face off in the fall. Unification and all questions answered. Would be great for the sport.

Joshua is 4 years younger.

Either one of these guys can represent the division well. They both have the talent, desire, strong ring presence and engaging public persona.......they BOTH got it, but Wilder seems to want it more, naturally avoiding all the bells & whistles!

Joshua will dominate for the next 8 years..wilder is just a piece in his story..imagine wilder fighting the top guys then..he'd be a megastar with the 39-0 record filled with good guys like both Klitschko brothers, povetkin,pulev and tyson fury..but he went on the bum beating tour now joshua has taken the torch by facing challenges very early and passing them well

He’s not a difficult sell with a crowd pleasing style and the looks of a model.

That age factor is another big thing though, Wilder is older with about 2 to 3 years left of productive pop in that long lanky frame of his. He wants to gladly pop & drop AJ, but Hearn needs AJ at photo shoots, fielding questions concerning ignoring Wilders call outs, while responding & appealing to sponsor requests for things like: toothpaste, protien shakes and his Hollywood aspirations.........

Time is on AJ’s side, most things are in his favour but you never know.
