    Well it's not ITV, but that's just a small point.

    I'm not clear on this "USA! USA! USA!" thing when I'm not talking about real estate, I'm talking about hard cash. The pound's really tanking right now, but even so it's worth $1.30 at one of its lowest ebbs.His PPVs are priced at £19.95, which comes to around $26... a lot less than the exorbitant $75 I see quoted over there for PPVs, but still significant when we're talking 1.5m buys.

    Quite why that should be disregarded when we're talking about pure cash is beyond me. The only real difference is that you Fat Yanks get bled through the nose... I thought £19.95 was steep.

      sighhhhh, not sure why this is so tough for you to comprehend.......

      his appearance was NOT a bad thing, it was very smart promotional move by CBS.

      What its NOT, is some sort of evidence that Wilder is now some well known mega super star, which is what the TS wrongly states.

        and right on cue, my very own personal stalker shows up to chime in on my posts, as usual.

        I thought you were going to ignore me? Maybe you can start now?

          Oh it wasn’t a bad thing? Well, that sounds like the snide remark you made. It’s okay, man. I

            So the tv station knows him which means millions of americans on the streets know who he is. Very poor logic. Nobody knows who wilder is on the streets.

              Not sure it makes any difference at all to his popularity that he did an interview but what would help is actually fighting on CBS following a big event like Spence did after the Olympics.

              If showtime is allegedly paying all that money for his next fight, why not throw it out there to a potential 200 million homes?

                that would be a great idea, and they could even offset some of the cost via commercial ad sales. HBO basically came out and admitted that boxing content did not drive subscriber numbers, that original programming did. Putting the fight on CBS would be a great move.......

You two don't seem to understand that. Even when i explained it to you y'all double down on your uninformed opinions.
                  Tell me how you get information on Wilder being popular in your country?

                    He's a no name coward who is living off of Joshua's fame. Can't wait till he gets ktfo by Whyte (he'll never fight AJ).
                    This is idiocy.

                    Lots of fighters do some fights on one type of platform and other fights on another.

                    Joshua isn't fighting on US ppv. Neither is Canelo.

                    You can't live off the name of someone who isn't even in the same market, and Joshua is definitely not here yet.

                    To my knowledge, very few fighters have ever gone exclusively ppv after their first one the rest of their career.

                    As for Wilder getting KTFO by Whyte, I guess we are going to have to wait until Dillian decides to grow a pair and fight Ortiz in an eliminator. I think we'll be waiting quite a while for that tho.

                      Listen. This is the big pond. You are irrelevant if you don't come to America. GGG, Kovalev, Lomachenko, Canelo, and all boxers come to America. Nobody is going to the UK to better their careers. All of your fighters are even coming here now.

                      It's cool to have pride in where you're from. But its not cool to deny reality. Reality is America is the place to be if you want to be somebody.
