    Nobody gives a fuc..by the way, he cant be a bigger draw (which is really what u want to say) consistently begging Wilder for a fight. The question you should be asking is "can he beat Wilder, dummy". What's wrong with u guys, u call yourself boxing fans but most of u act like promoters always looking for reasons not to make a fight... smh

        And it wasn’t even televised in North America.

          AJ's fluffer will never be a big draw.

              Hard to say who the bigger draw is without knowing the gate figures for their recent fights, international TV, etc. Either way, AJ vs. Wilder is a much more lucrative fight than AJ vs. Whyte II, so in that sense, Wilder is a bigger draw when it comes to AJ's potential opponents.

                It's a tough question.

                Obviously Whyte brings in more money per fight. But Wilder has a bigger potential payday vs Joshua.

                  Probably not. He draws big crowds in his home country, but after seeing the response Wilder received there to promote the Fury fight, I bet he could generate a big crowd also.

                      They are probably much closer than many will admit.
