    LSU-Georgia on CBS or
    Ruiz and AJ on DAZN .

    Hmmm????

    Seriously this isn’t the 70’s and 80’s when fans would watch fights on sat and Sunday afternoon. A major fight like that needs to be on in prime time.
    What were they watching when Wilder fought Ortiz the other week? And Joshua v Ruiz WAS on prime time. Just not prime time in the States. The world is bigger than America.

      True stars make their own primetime. Boxing doesnt have that anymore.

        I don't know.

        If it's not prime time in the US, then it isn't in prime time. Nothing is more important than America. We are the straw that stirs the drink. I know that makes you upset. You can look at the interview ****Em posted with Harry Stiles uncle after the fight and he even talks about America.

        When you are the HWT champ of the world, if you don't compete in America you are nothing. Lets hope AJ doesn't become Wlad 2.0 and hide overseas.

          I think boxing still ha stars, they just don't have Mayweather level stars anymore. I doubt if we ever see another boxer that sells 4 mil PPVs at all, let alone twice. He was just the right guy at the right time with the right opposition.

          I do think AJ/Wilder will sell 2 mil PPVs in the USA like Floyd did with ODH and Canelo if the fight is on PPV. I would expect the Fury/AJ card to sell more than 2 mil in England as well.

          The sport isn't where it was but it could make it back.
