No One Knows Who Wilder is

Then why is this website so obsessed with him? Why is Hearn asked about him constantly? Why is he the biggest draw at Barclays? Why is he the biggest draw on Showtime? Why does he sell so many more tickets than Matchroom USA?

Then it don't happen, who gives a s**h*t? Joshua will be remembered like a Riddick Bowe ducking Lennox Lewis.

Then why are you offering him $5 million for his next fight?

Hearn is so full of it AJ is only known in the UK because they only have soccer and boxing and is Olympic pedigree but he isnt lnow in the US either if he came here the fight would not sell like the UK so he is using that as the excuse Pay Wilder and AJuice gets his ass kicked ...Hearn u know this

Because this site is filled with so called hardcore boxing fans but most of the money comes from casual boxing fans. He's right, Wilder should be bigger in the states!

Hearn seems to do more harm than good. I totally agree Joshua is the A side and deserves the bigger percentage. But a fight of this magnitude, Wilder shouldn't be getting no 15 million flat fee. 60/40 or 65/35 purse in favor of Joshua plus split in PPV sales is reasonable.

Ok great, keep it moving.

Eddie, I know exactly what you are doing. You are using wilders name to grow aj's popularity in the states... Smart, but both you and aj are still bit.ches

Wilder is simply afraid he will lose and he knows he'll become irrelevant. Whats worse are his fans defending his scared ass
