    Hughie Fury is a bigger star than Wilder

    1.5m tuned in for his fight last night in a country with 5x less people. Wilder can barely get half of that.

    Accept it boys, Hughie Fury is a bigger star.

    What point are you attempting to make? do we want the best fights or do we just argue over who the most popular is?

            I bet around a million of those viewers thought they were tuning in to see Tyson Imagine if AJ was on terrestial TV, he'd get a ridiculous amount of viewers.

              Haha i was going to say the same, or that many tuned in just because he's Tyson's relative.

              Also, like him or not, Tyson Fury is very famous here. That's not to say he's popular, well liked or supported but on pure fame and name recognition, he's right up there. Joshua is far more popular and well supported by the public, but i bet there isn't many people who know AJ but don't know Fury.

                The only other thing on at the time on terrestrial TV was fricken Eurovision of course he got decent ratings, between watching the pimply Fury dance around for a few rounds and an obese Israeli cluck like a chicken and scream ****** boy every red blooded male only had one choice.

                Did you see where Fury was fighting, I've seen bigger crowds at press conferences. He was fighting in a convention room in a hotel for Christ sake. The intro graphics looked like they were done by a bunch of teenagers on their Ipads.

                I doubt Hughie made more than £50K for that amateurish looking card.

                  The numbers don't lie. People have more than just Eurovision or boxing to choose from. Everyone has dozens or hundred of channels now, netflix etc etc.

                  Terrestrial TV with 5 channels doesn't even exist anymore, it has been replaced by Digital terrestrial since 2012, so anyone who has a TV has at least dozens of channels.

                  1.5m chose to watch Hughie Fury. That's all that matters. So put that in your pipe and smoke it.

                  Hughie is a bigger star than Wilder.
