    America doesn’t have any stars of boxing anymore. We just have a bunch of great fighters. No stand out. Floyd is gone.

    And WBC WBA IBF said that Joshua is the biggest hvw in the world. According to whom??? Foh lmao. The winner of Joshua Wilder will be if the coward ever gets the balls to fight Wilder. On a side note: If Wilder beats Fury his star power will grow even more.

          You wilder haters may not like it but the bottom line he is the biggest american star right now and the numbers back it up,people quick to say canelo but canelo was built off of Floyd's name fighting on his undercards before they gave him a floyd fight,he doesn't speak English and people only tune in to watch him fight,wilder is on radio shows and other tv stuff all day,watch how many celebrities show up to the fury fight especially in la,showtime putting all they eggs in his basket to try to make him a ppv star and we will see if it works

            Wilder is hated mostly because he is African American unfortunately

              Anthony Joshua is the clear cut #1 heavyweight in the world and by far the biggest draw in the heavyweight division.

              If Wilder defeats Fury in spectacular fashion and the PPV sells better than expected, it's possible he can start to close the gap on AJ in both departments. But it's not going to happen in one night. Regardless of what happens December 1, AJ will still be the #1 heavyweight in the world and the biggest draw.

                He isn't the clear anything, foh lmao. AJ is a bigger draw where he lives at that's all. Foh with the #1 crap.

                  Yes, AJ is a bigger draw where he lives, just as Wilder is a bigger draw where he lives. But overall, AJ is the bigger draw by far. He is a PPV star in his market and while PPV prices are lower, he sells big numbers. He draws massive crowds and while ticket prices are lower, he grosses big numbers. There's really no debate that an AJ fight generates more money than a Wilder fight. Could that change someday? Maybe. Anything is possible and US PPV is the ultimate revenue stream. But yes it's very very clear AJ is the bigger draw.

                  As for who deserves to be ranked #1 at heavyweight, AJ is unified champion. If/when Wilder has both the most prestigious belt (WBC) *and* the lineal title, the argument becomes less clear. But right now, holding the WBA Super, IBF World and WBO World, AJ has solidified himself as #1.

                  AJ also has the stronger resume. Go look at the Boxrec ratings. AJ has nearly double the points of Wilder (who has nearly double the points of Povetkin).

                  At heavyweight, it's very rare for top 10 guys to face top 10 guys. AJ has consistently faced top 10 guys. No other heavyweight can say that.

                      No, that's not true anymore. Wilder has surpassed Broner.
