      He's not up for the real challenge right now but Povetkin shouldn't be an easy win for AJ.

        I'm excited for it personally, good fight. I'm team Wilder but this is a pretty darn good fight on paper at least.

          It definitely has explosive potential.

          Looking forward to it.

              Ya but that's all that matters.
              This is like saying outside of the usa nobody cares about nfl much. This is true but nfl only need america.
              Soccer dont need America
              Rugby dont need americs
              At this point neither does joshua

                  Yea it seems like this whole Wilder stuff gots some fans feeling some kinda way. And its mostly UK fans or a lot of them it seems like. UK fans aren't used to this milking a fight bs.

                  What Hearn has built his boxing empire with is good competitive fights & a good f#cking time. UK cats don't care if Joshua is undefeated or has 5 losses. And the thing is now Hearn seems to be switching sh^t up & trying to lean Joshua away from the biggest challenges.

                  In the US I feel thats something you can sell better. In the UK they buy the bs less. That said you are still gonna be able to find a lot of mfers who are down for the event of it all cuz that might be what Hearn does the best even for his lesser cards...make an event of it. But Hearn isn't following his own blueprint with this Joshua sh^t & a blind mfer can see that.

                    This is true, that's why I'll probably catch the fight if I'm home. I could be interesting.

                      Well it's evident that AJ doesn't need the US (or losing his belts to Wilder) right now, and I'll even go as far as saying UK fans are the only thing that matters to AJ.

                      But the rest of that is dead wrong JB, they stream the NFL all over the world (especially in the UK, they even have a commentary panel of Brits that talk about it all Sunday), Pro Soccer in the US is a major victory for futbol, and the Rugby 7s world cup was in my hometown at AT&T Park in San Francisco a couple months ago.

                      All these other sports know the value of the GLOBAL ECONOMY (and where the big $$ is) yet Hearn & AJ go with the UK & Eastern Europe audience.
