Comments Thread For: Joshua Set To Bank Career-High Purse in Miller Defense

[Ake-Dawg]

The contract was EXTENDED in July. That means he was never out of contract which means he could never accept the offer.

When was it set to expire? Could the fight date have been set for after the expiration date? Just curious.

Usyk vs Whyte, Povetkin, or Parker is more for aficionados than AJ vs Miller. AJ vs DADA 3000 next!

Wilder has a better resume than AJ? Jesus Christ talk about stepping on your ****.

[Ake-Dawg]

So what your saying is he would have to beat both champions to gain a fan base

Fickle bunch you lot

That's not at all what I said. But if you want to be upset and launch an insult, you're welcome to assume that's what I said.

The question is always who and how you beat a guy considered the man or a real dawg. Not how many belts you have. Miller beating a guy Americans don't know wouldn't give him much attention in America. He would have to beat the guy(s) they know.

You guys should really learn how to see things outside of the myopic view of a British fan.

Eddie talking bull**** I seriously doubt DAZN will put up half that money for unknown commodity in the states

This is all hype and early promotion by Eddie Hearn

We don't believe you need more people

Second favorite quote was “if you wanna see a fight with wilder you lace up gloves and box him” telling that to his fans

Lol .....second after “I think Tyson fury had Baby oil on

If you don't rate Wilder then saying Ortiz did well losing to him isn't going to help and Whyte beat AJ in the amateurs, where as Ortiz lost to Usyk.

Fury you could argue is better than anyone on Ajs resume but i) he was just come of a two year drug binge lay off ii) Wilder couldn't beat Fury iii) most sane people thought he lost

No rating body agrees with you on Ortiz, Povetkin and Whyte have beat far better oppositio go look at boxrec.

Go look at ring and espn Ortiz is higher than Ped. They have Whyte 4 and

IMO

Fury
AJ
Wilder

Then its between the Old and young and inexperienced.

I put Ortiz #4 because a Cuban Southpaw will always give fighters a tough out.

Reason why its hard for him to get fights same with Rig.

Whyte SD'd no defense Doeboy and needed another 11 rounds.

I would bet $$$$ all day on Ortiz beating Whyte.

I dont take much stock in who beat who in 3 rounders with headgear on.

Either way USYK isba CURRENT top 5 P4Per ranked higher than AJ.

But for sht's and giggles Augie Sanchez beat Floyd and Andre Dirrell beat GGG in the amatuers. So those two are better right?

[filup79]

32 million? They will be taking a big loss just to pay AJ. No way anyone turns a profit with those figures. DAZN better hope AJs fight is within the 30 days of Canelos fight just for subscription signups. Canelo vs Jacobs is a true PPV fight in the US, AJ vs Miller is your typical HBO/Showtime fight. Would have fun to see Hearn try to put it on PPV in the US as a measuring stick to Wilder/Fury since Hearn thinks AJ is a global star.

How is Joshua a fraud, moron, when he is younger, has had less fights, yet has a better resume than both Wilder and Fury?

Joshua doesn’t have a better resume than Wilder or Fury. They fought each other. That eclipses anyone Joshua has fought this far including 41 year old Wladamir. I actually give Joshua some credit for fighting Miller. Miller isn’t an mister puncher, but he is a very big strong guy. He will make Joshua work hard. Miller will absorb Joshua’s punches far better than anyone else he has faced due to that size advantage.
