    Anthony Joshua is the second biggest draw in all of boxing.

    Comparing him to Errol Spence is, at best, ****ing insane.
    Now that we have established that Anthony joshua is a bigger draw than usyk no matter how much usyk has accomplished and AJ is the a side for that reason, apply the same logic to Crawford and Spence.

    Who has been the bigger draw in boxing Spence or Crawford??

      You said accomplishments at lower weights don’t matter.

      They do.

      You can’t deny that.

      You then compares Anthony Joshua vs. Oleksander Usyk to Errol Spence vs. Terence Crawford.

      It’s not comparable at all.

      First, Joshua is far and away the biggest draw of the four.

      Second, Usyk doesn’t hold a piece of the heavyweight championship.

      Crawford holds a piece of the welterweight championship.

      Let’s compare it to Joshua-Fury. Like Crawford, Fury holds a piece of the title. Like Crawford, Fury has had two PPVs in America that didn’t do that great. Like Crawford, Fury isn’t a big draw in the states and the evidence can be seen by shows he headlined that didn’t sell out.

      Joshua is a way bigger draw than Spence but Joshua-Fury should be a 50/50 split or close, just like Spence-Crawford should.

        I also forgot to mention that Joshua-Usyk can’t be compared because Usyk gets a 35-percent split for being the mandatory.

        If Crawford was a mandatory and not a belt holder, he should be happy with 35% against Crawford. But it’s a unification fight...

          If accomplishments at a lower weight class mean you deserve 60% versus Spence then you're saying Usyk should be the A side to Anthony Joshua because he accomplished more at cruiserweight ??

          LMAO

          Anyone with a brain knows Crawford is either an idiot or just pricing himself out
          I agree. Spence deserves more money than Crawford. He has fought much better welterweights and does better numbers than Crawford.

            Good thing a multi-division champion’s resume isn’t determined by one weight class.

                There is definitely a what have you done for me lately aspect to boxing accomplishments in weight divisions. Its clear Errol has done more at 147.

                And I mean ffs even overall Bud's all time best W could easily be argued to be Vitor Postol. The fresher Brook Errol fought & Showtime Shawn are for sure better W's & they happened at 147 not 140 like Bud's Postol W.

                    What made you come to that conclusion?? Surely not ppv and ticket sales.
