Now B-Side is trying to use Mayweather's line.

There's one problem with this, that your based in the states and many of AJ's detractors are based in the states. I'm not getting at you but AJ can fill stadiums in the UK, will have people buying his PPV's regardless of who he fights.
I can say it till I'm blue in the face, a huge chunk of people just follow AJ for the 'ride' here. They don't even know any of his opponents or follow the sport with any interest but will tune in for his bouts to be able to post a congratulatory message on Snap-chat or any of those corny apps afterwards.
It's good for real boxing heads, and the sport if this fight happens but even if AJ has to vacate a title and fight a tomato can - they'll still get a massive following here in the UK.Comment

Wilder: "I want the fight" = Wilder's scared, he doesn't want the fight, Joshua can make $20M fighting anyone he wants, and he doesn't need Wilder. Wilder's team has never contacted us. Wilder won't agree to our terms of a 99/1 split.
Joshua: "I'm my own boss & I'll knock Wilder spark out" = We're going to Barclays to fight Big Baby Miller.
FOH.
This is starting to remind me of Chris Rock and Bernie Mack in the movie Head of State when they were trying to get the Vice President to debate them! Lol. "I thought I told you that we won't stop, I thought I told you that we won't stop"!!!Comment

you come on here using part of my name and say that? Lolol - quick comparison of 'notable' names on both records in this heavyweight climate and I'm a fan of both.
AJ:
Klitscho
Parker
Takam
Whyte
Breazeale
Wilder:
Stiverne (version 1, not the one who showed up to pt.2 looking like he was sponsored by popeyes)
Ortiz
AJ's fought the stronger opposition, but at least Wilder is trying to make up for lost time now it seems.Comment

Who will Anthony Joshua fight next? Why Deontay Wilder unification showdown may have to wait
Luke Brown:
In the early hours of Sunday morning, down some anonymous corridor deep in the bowels of the shellshocked Principality Stadium, Eddie Hearn could not hide his frustration at being asked about Deontay Wilder for the thousandth time. Joseph Parker was yesterday’s news. And people were already demanding Anthony Joshua’s next snarling opponent on a platter.
“Oh mate, this is so boring,” he said with a weary puff of the cheeks, while the cramped room that held the bleary-eyed post-fight press conferences began to empty. “What more can we do?" All I see is them on social media claiming that this is a fight they have wanted for years, but they haven’t approached us once. Not once. There have been zero offers...
It didn’t take long for the party line to be revised. Later that day, as a rubble-strewn Cardiff continued to nurse its collective hangover, Hearn’s old man made an appearance on BBC Radio Five Live with a decidedly more optimistic outlook. “I think negotiations will start next week,” Barry said cheerily. “It is a fight Anthony really wants and I think he wants it this year...”
After defeating Parker, Joshua could not resist not-so-subtly reminding Wilder exactly who possess the upper hand in negotiations between the pair. “They can come to Cardiff, or Wembley. We will stay here,” he laughed in unison with 80,000, as Wilder watched on from home. “All the time people used to have to go out to America to watch it, they don't need to anymore.”
But both Joshua and Hearn carefully rowed back on this outburst in the hours after the fight. “I’d love to go to America and actually look at the landscape, to work out serious they are,” Joshua said. “The US has potential,” Hearn added. “If AJ wants to be a truly global sportstar he needs to go to America,” Barry later clarified on radio, for good measure.
I see why Dibella and Finkel keeps talking about Barry, vice Eddie! I think Barry is the key to the negotiations!Comment

They’re being so childish and they’re making people lose interest in this sport because of these same tactics. You’re right fans are losing interest in Joshua and the sport of Boxing. Joshua just put 78,000 people at Principality Stadium with a combined 243,000 fans in the past three fights combined. Meanwhile Bum Squad has managed to attract 42,270 people in his last three fights combined. The only one they’ve lost interest in is you. You’re the D side, not worthy of being the B side with that kind of fan base. But keep talking Shannon Briggs!Comment
