    Joshua never earned less than any of the opponents he bought. Fact!

    Martin Joshua, Parker Joshua, who did he take a cut for?

    He's been built up by Hearn and the media...he's stiff & is ducking wilder. Using boxing politics as the excuse now

      "Step 2 is to make Anthony Joshua a global star."
      Lol, there's suckers that believe this guy?
      I actually think the fight should be in the UK. But, they gotta pay the man real money. As-in, a percentage. Not this 12m flat offer to impress the casuals. Offer him 35% and take 40 if you got to.

      I think Barry leaked the plan though. AJ is not going to be allowed to fight Wilder until 2019. Eddie got milking to do first.

        Joshua overpaid everyone of them to build his name.

          Giving back to the UK fans what garbage not buying that for a second. They might make more in America but first and foremost ensure the best chance of the gravy train staying on track. Stacking everything in favor at Wembley is the safer option.

            I think Hearn is a greasy promoter who has the casuals under his spell but I'm not against the fight happening in the UK. It looks bad that he refuses to travel. But, he's the guy to beat and it would be a great look for Wilder to take the belts off him overseas. When Spence did it to Brook it elevated him tremendously and left Brook looking like a joke. Deontay should take the opportunity, IF they actually offer a reasonable one, which they won't until 2019.

                  This is what happens when you deal with a small time promotion company. Hearn is as small as they come trying to swim with the sharks.

                      Deontay Wilder really has this boy shook.
                      Didn’t Joshua say he’d take the fight if 50 million was offered?
                      Now he has more demands and excuses to avoid wilder.
                      If the fight is in the UK the offer will go down to like 25 mil.
                      The casinos and hotel guys want this fight in Vegas.
