Stop saying Wilder is unknown, he has 1.7M Instagram followers

Ryan Garcia has more.

Ryan Garcia isn’t followed by boxing fans though...

AJ got 5 times as many, so he deserves at least 80/20, right?

[Robbie Barrett]

Most of those followers are from the show real housewives.

I don’t know why social media is now a gauge for a fighter popularity. But am old so maybe it is.

You can buy followers though like Matchroom did with AJ

Lol sure they do pal

Neither is wilder. A lot of those followers will be because of his appearance on that wags show

There's women dressed in bikinis who have 10-20x that many followers.

I Agree he's not unknown in the boxing world and he's become semi known especially after the Fury fight to the casual and public world.

He's far from a superstar though which I just don't understand why....

I'm white English but I'll be the first to admit boxing was built on Black Americans and Boxing's biggest and best superstars have historically and still are Black American's.....

So why isn't a 6'8 209lb Black Heavyweight champion with a near 100% K.O ratio in 40 odd fights who swings with such venomous hurtful intent he literally jumps across the ring with each swing of his hand and twists like a tornado due to the power and strength of his momentum a MASSIVE ****ING SUPERSTAR????

WTF IS GOING ON?

I understand Fury, the constant underdog, white hope, surprisingly charismatic, actually a great boxer and comes back from adversity to win, possibly imo the best white heavyweight ever with maybe Vitali having a shot at him. So.Fury I understand.

Anthony Joshua....he has the hype and exposure WILDER SHOULD HAVE. AJ is a modern day Frank Bruno or at best a lesser man's Wladimir who let's his hands go a bit more. I really don't see him beating Wilder or Fury, his best chance is outboxing Wilder by jab and running the whole night and walking him into cheeky right hands and pray he avoids having his chin touched.

I don't see what possible chance in this world he has against Fury who will do to AJ what he did to Wlad only even easier because AJ hasn't got Wlads defence.


Too long and didn't read? I can't explain why Wilder isn't a massive superstar, he has every attribute necessary.

No idea what WAGS is, but Ryan Garcia’s fanbase consists of 80% gay men, and that’s not hyperbole

Not bad for Wilder. Not bad at all. Look at GGG go. The third most followed boxer of all. So much hate on this board but the rest of the world loves him. Why so many follow that nasty Broner I don't know.
