Comments Thread For: Lennox Lewis: Wilder Deserves 60-40 Split for Joshua Fight

[Sid-Knee]

What I can't understand is why Wilder ia not the draw in US that AJ is. Maybe AJ is understated and Wilder a bit brash but Tyson Furry is brash and he is populist as hell in UK so it is not that. His fights generally end in knockout. He has character and he isn't dull?

Fury doesn't come close to being the ticket seller Joshua is. He never has been. He only does about 10,000 in a arena.

And Wilder not being a bigger star in America? I think fighting a load of bums might have something to do with it.

Do you realize how silly that statement sounds? The fight is so valuable because of the TWO of them. Joshua can't make a superfight by himself can he?

Every time Joshua fights it's a big fight. He sells out stadiums after all. It's a massive show when he's on.

The best Brits? You mean the crazy Christians that they chucked out and didn't want? Who then made the biggest mental asylum in history called the United Sates?

And for an American to call anyone from another country "Dumb" shows that you really haven't grasped the meaning of irony.

Lol Yeah, crazy Christian dummies formed and run the greatest, most successful country in the world. Makes perfect sense huh? Just crazy dummies ......Ha ha ha!

And that statement you just made helps me understand everything preceding that post now. I was a little baffled.

Besides being an idiot about boxing, you're a complete delusional pillock overall. Poor fellow. I'm going to leave you alone now. I'm embarrassed for f@cking with the mentally challenged.

Because the contract was missing a date and location deliberately. It was a bullchit contract meant to stall and avoid taking the fight next. This is common knowledge, keep up.

It would have taken over a week to get the date and venue pencilled in. With the WBA on Hearn's back, he wanted to hurry things up and get contracts signed before time ran out. Hearn would have got the date and venue no more than 2 weeks after the contract signing.

Here is a fun fact, did you know that the Hopkins/Calzaghe live gate generated more revenue than the Joshua/Klitschko live gate with only 14,000 people in attendance as compared to the Joshua/Klitschko live gate which had over 90,000 people in attendance? Also, did you know that California's GDP is greater than England's?

Vegas casino fights earn, but how many genuine fans can spend 1200 pn a ticket. So I'd much rather have 90000 stadium fights that are acccessible to fans

No country is the greatest in the world. Only morons with huge ego's say nonsense like that.

Show me where I've been an idiot on boxing? You're not just talking rubbish like Americans do with nothing to back it up are you? You wouldn't do that would you?

[Lemonhead_Jeff]

Oh it was a boring fight, and I wished it had some action after all the talk from Fury and what not, but you still can't not give Fury credit for the win is all i'm saying.

I'm just saying that the champion should always get 'the benefit of the doubt' when scoring close or uneventful rounds in world title fights. It would prevent the type of strategy that fury employed, encourage action fights, and help ensure we have worthy champions. I accept Fury's victory because that's the way history records it. But I don't have to like it!

Are you're saying Wladimir should have got the victory on the score-cards?

[LacedUp]

Stfu. I'm done talking to a ******. Really. You've got to be ******ed.

All facts say America is far from the greatest country in pretty much every meaningful category

So yeah who's the ******?
