newsflash, boxing doesnt revolve around america any more.

[just the facts]

That's funny, because i'm pretty sure Golovkin earned his biggest payday outside of Canelo in the UK.

The vast majority in America don't make the kind of money that Mayweather and Canelo earn. To try and make it out to be the case is just dishonesty on your part.

Plenty of fighters in the UK that sell a big crowd and are world class. It's not just Joshua.

Did you even put your pea sized brain in gear before making this ignorant post?

Gggs second largest payday in UK while his largest payday came in the US? How does this help your argument?

The vast majority of Americans don't make Floyd\Canelo money? Do the vast majority of Brits make Joshua money? How does this help your argument?

Plenty of UK fighters are world class and sell a big crowd. WHO? And even if true how does this help your argument?

You do know that AJ is the most marketable athlete in the world don't you?

No one knows who Canelo is outside of Mexico and the US. Whereas AJ is worldwide.

So try laughing now.

Canelo is face of boxing lol...be serious

when i tune into watch these supposed big pbc fights and see a small venue where you could hear a pindrop that to me doesnt show its the home of boxing.

hearn showed it in his video, noone even knows who wilder is out on the streets. thats your american heavyweight champion. Joshua would get mobbed everywhere he goes in UK. i dont get the impression that crawford is much of a superstar either? and hes p4p number 1 on a lot of lists yet hes a nobody.

And ive seen lots of articles about american boxers crying that they arent stars, so american fighters arent even stars in there own country but its the hub of the sport? okay....

And you can thank al haymon and some of the other promoters there for that, theyve drained the life out of the sport.

You can fight in front of 80k fans or you can fight in front of 8k 'fans', what a tough decision. Even the damn entrances look budget over there now. The whole 'show' aspect of boxing has gone.


Vegas is still an attraction but its not the be all and end all anymore. I wouldnt be shocked if that loses its reputation as the boxing city soon too, mayweather was propping it up for a long time.

without a doubt historically its been the hub of boxing but thats changing.some of you need to get with the times. clinging onto past glories.

Damn man every other post you make is hate towards American, Latin America or any non euro place.

Fuuck off with you’re pro euro pro white agenda.

Someone ban this pos.

You do know that AJ is the most marketable athlete in the world don't you?

No one knows who Canelo is outside of Mexico and the US. Whereas AJ is worldwide.

So try laughing now.

No one knows who the fuuck Joshua is outside England.

Canelo is known worldwide you dumb fuuuck.

Man you euro trolls are unbelievable.

You need to go back to school and work on your punctuation.

You become a global icon based on the amount of money you make? Are you for ****ing real?

You Americans are just ****ing deluded in everything you say. Go and see a shrink because you're a head case.

For the most part, the television audience in the US is ****. So save the bollocks you're trying to sell.
It's only the big events that really sell. Your average Event over there is low-key.

You're mentioning names from the past, not in today's world. Times have moved on. America is no longer the capital of boxing. Sorry, but it's the truth.

It just so happens that Mayweather and Pac are global crossover, mainstream pay per view stars among casual fans; Not just in the U.S. Anthony Joshua hasn't arrived there yet. He's only popular among the casual fan in the U.K. But not around the world. In addition, so were the Klitschko's; Given all the might and push of the AOL/Time/Warner HBO machine they still couldn't make the Klitschko's into household names among casual fans not just in America but globally as well. Therefore, they had to jump ship and fight in Germany.

You're saying ALL the big money fights belong in the US. I just pointed out that GGG got his second biggest payday in the UK. So no, not all the biggest paydays are in the US

The vast majority of fighters in the UK don't make AJ paydays, but on average they get better paydays than the average American gets.

Joshua
Haye
Bellew
Frampton
Groves
Eubank
Yafai
Whyte

And so on and so on sell tickets and get a big crowd in.

Hell, Whyte sells more than your so called champ does in Deontay. Plus, his biggest payday is on offer over here.

Yeah, you keep on telling yourself that.

[Sid-Knee]

Wtf are you serious?

No one knows who the fuuck Joshua is outside England.

Canelo is known worldwide you dumb fuuuck.

Man you euro trolls are unbelievable.

Hahahahahaha go and do your research you hillbilly.

So no one knows AJ outside of England? Yet he's the most marketable athlete in the world?

You Americans are beyond help. I actually pity you.

The Klitschko's are household names in Europe.

You do know that athletes that are household names in one country doesn't mean they are household names in every other country?

They have their own market.
