Comments Thread For: Arum: Wilder-Fury Was Tremendous - Joshua is Number 3!

[Jkp]

Joshua carries 4 belts and does bigger PPV's and bigger ticket sales and makes more money. Which ever way you look at it Joshua is number one. Is he the best? Thats down to personal opinion, but who is number 1 is not up for debate. Bobs just taking a swing at Hearn just like some of the other worried and nervous American promoters.

***ellery bought by eddie doesnt make you #1.
I dont even know what half of those belts AJ carries around are for. Maybe a belt for biggest ducker?

Even the Bobfather agrees.

The Bobfather has spoken

Contrast that with another rival promoter in Eddie Hearn who said that “It wasn’t a great fight”.

Simple. If Joshua wants to make a statement in April he should fight someone like an Ortiz or Big Baby (if he can't secure Wilder). Not rematch Whyte who he already knocked out and will knock out again

With clear wins over wilder and Klitschko, it’s evident fury is number one. He would make Joshua look like he’s in wet cement

In a weird way I don't want them to rematch straight away they both came away with their 0's and gained more fans they should take a bout inbetween theres no rush

You make a good points all. AJ is the cash cow that Fury never will be and I suspect Wilder's camp "Shelly Finkel" will likely rather cash out the AJ fight than risk a loss for a 3 mil rematch. Don't get me wrong, Wilder's pride would rather rematch Fury but it's a very high risk for 1/3rd the reward.

That said, this is boxing and Wilder could insist upon a rematch but something tells me won't. Wilder knows it's a business and for that reason and 15 million more he'll fight AJ. BUT...If by chance they do rematch...Just based upon what I witnessed... Fury beats Wilder on neutral ground by UD and in doing so steps into a 15 million dollar payday with AJ.

Deontay Wilder is protected in America. There are certain people behind the scenes that want to keep Deontay Wilder on top and the WBC belt in the USA. This protection is evident in the Deontay Wilder vs Luis Ortiz fight when Ortiz nearly knocked Wilder out and the officials deliberately gave Wilder more time to recover and then it happened again in the Tyson Fury fight when they realised that Deontay Wilder was getting outboxed they made sure Wilder kept his belt by scoring it a draw.
