[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

IBF, IBO, WBA, WBO heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua believes that he, as a British fighter, does not get the same level of respect as fighters from other countries - at least when it comes from the world media.

That's funny because nobody is screaming they're victims more than White American men.

Respect is something you earn. Fury earned respect. All this wailing is not helping.

Tyson Fury is well respected by the world media and British.

AJ is still dining out on his magnificent decision win over the fattest heavyweight champ in history of boxing.

Perhaps if he didnt quit in the ring, and fought the top guys in the division (the ones under 40 years old), he would get the respect he deserves.

Because you dont fight in the USA and the first time you fought you lost to a fat last minute replacement that nobody saw becuase it was on a mobile App.

If AJ fought in the USA and Las Vegas on ESPN or FOX instead of DAZN more often he would have been a star.

Lennox caught some flack from Americans, but he proved himself courageous by going overseas and taking on the best. Joshua on the other hand, wanted badly to promote boxing staying home, and only decided to go overseas when the two potential opponents resembled a walrus, and later a "before" candidate for serious weight loss.

The MAIN reason he doesnt get the respect (he believes) he deserves is due to his Barry & Eddie Hearn guided muppet moves. His passive wuss moves regarding Wilder did him in. If he REALLY wanted that fight it wouldve happened years ago!

His delusional fanbase that confirms everything Fast Eddie proclaims - adds to the weird stigma that helps prop up this carefully orchestrated commercial creation to the disbelieving world. Now Joshua believes people should "bow down" to him because his gloves were absorbed for 12rnds in a ton of gel?!? -vs-

He'll never get the respect while been seen as a 'cash cow' for Hearn. Everything's all about money for his circus but to be the best and beat the best sometimes you have to look beyond that.

Don't duck fights. After all the pressure from the outside and AJ finally decided to come out of his comfort zone of home crowd fights all on his/Hearns terms he thought he was getting a fat bum off the street (and to be fair he did) to destroy in front of the American crowd and get people talking about him..

What he didn't expect was the fat bum taking him to the cleaners and exposing him as the mediocre fighter he is. The second fight is irrelevant for me, the damage is done..

If he wants to try gain a little, go fight Fury in NY or Vegas asap before the milk runs dry for Hearn.

Even the great Lennox wouldve been crazy to request "bowing" for the pounding he gave the DEPLETED former champ Tyson! Even disgruntled Holmes realized he beat up on an OLD sedentary Ali. Holmes even LOST respect for taking out his jealousy on a man that clearly slowed down.....Joshua wouldve asked Eddie to request a two day parade from the Prime Minister, then request all Africans to observe a solemn night of "Joshilation" :All africans would be required to hum joshuas name in unison as they sipped on only Lucozade.... Barry would then inform Eddie to make an immediate rematch!....The "fans" would be ecstatic!!
