    AJ is the draw in the US

    To pay him $50m you would need 666k PPV buys at $75 in the US (this is before networks take their cut!).

    Twice as many buys required as Wilder vs Fury.

    Agree or disagree?

    And by the way I'm not AJ fanboys. Fury is #1, AJ #2 and Deyonce #3 so keep that **** out the thread.

      Says he’s not an AJ fanboy, yet his entire post history says otherwise.

          No he isn't. Would a AJ-Wilder fight sell more than the reported 300K? of course, but it takes two to tango.

              Yes it takes two to tango. But you would need to more than double the PPV buys of Wilder/Fury to pay Joshua his guarantee. And that's without paying Wilder, his promoters and the networks yet. By definition this means that AJ is worth more to the US market than Fury and Wilder combined.

              It's basic maths that can't be argued with. He must be the draw.

                Some fans like to discuss things like this.

                If you can't answer because the answer you're looking for doesn't suit the narrative you've been fed or aren't interested in the topic at all then just stay out of the thread.

                  If Joshua fights wilder then ppv in America surely would be above 500k; but probably still 750k in the uk at American timeframe.

                  If uk timeframe probably 1.5mil at least in the uk and a 100-200k us.

                    Couldn’t agree more with AJ being the draw in the States if the Wilder fight ever happens , I mean just look at his #s there

                    His fight with Povetkin was reportedly watched by over 15k people on DAZN and his Showtime viewership ( excluding the Klit fight ) avg around what Wilder / Fury did on a PPV ( horrible #s by the way according to Hearn )

                    AJ is the draw in the States obviously and the #s back up this claim
