Comments Thread For: Arum: Fury-Joshua is Biggest Heavyweight Fight Since Ali-Frazier 1

[Sid-Knee]

Arum is just wondering to the English and Welsh crowd....we all know this fight only matters in the U.K. and possibly the woman/***/Turkish journalist hating capitol of the world Saudi Arabia. And even no one in Saudi really cares they just want a spectacle. The only fans who care en masse are U.K. fans. Fury has been successful in the USA because of his fights with wilder, which set the record for live gate for a heavyweight title fight without 90,000 tickets sold at £5 prices. Joshua’s American debut consisted of a beating at the hands of a pudgy out of shape Mexican American with fast hands.....and a gut.
The U.K. it is......

Care to tell me what you know about the rest of the world and their interest? You clearly delude yourself that you can? Or maybe just avoid this question because you can't answer it like most Yanks. Yeah, that will be the one. Haha. Now get back on your leash. Your master has let you off it for long enough.

Oh, and the live gate was for Las Vegas, not the whole of the U.S. Moron.

Now stay in the place i put you. You don't come out until you're told. OK?

Tyson vs Holyfield I & II...and if there is a third fight it will likely be as big or bigger than Fury/AJ

Holyfield vs Bowe and Lewis

Those sales where for the whole world, not just the U.S. And it had a YTuber on the card with a massive following. I'd bet big on the sales being due to that fight. Not Tyson.

A 3rd fight between 2 shot fighters isn't going to get many people interested. The UK alone will do many times the viewers as the whole world for that one.

But if you wanna be involved in big time boxing you have to come to America in my opinion. Didn't Eddie Hearn teach you this? Joshua/fury may be better off in the UK because Tyson fury couldn't sell 100 tickets here and people haven't seen enough of Anthony Joshua to care who he is. American fight fans are smart for the most part excluding wilder fans of course. We don't celebrate hyped up fighters and declare them the greatest like they do over there in the UK.

The U.S does nothing but produce hype jobs. Fury is better and more proven than anyone in the U.S. Only your pathological delusion would say otherwise. I mean, you have Spence, Crawford and Charlo in the top 10 P4P. Haha. Priceless.

Only a deranged and blind imbecile would call Americans smart. The whole world laughs at you for saying these kind of typical comments. But you have no self-awareness so don't understand why you're being laughed at.

Bob is 89 years old. From time to time, Ali/Frazier 1 might be the only fight he can remember. This may have been one of those times.

[Sid-Knee]

And yet you have some idiots that will take whatever he says as law even when they've admitted once before that he can't be trusted....now that's not only a moron...that's a dangerous moron right there.

Read what you wrote, then apply it to yourself. "A dangerous moron".

I guess you didn't think the "Thrilla in Manilla" was any good considering it didn't take place in the U.S? Leonard vs Duran 2? Foreman vs Frazier? Ali vs Frazier?

Now come back with some contradictory bullshlt with the usual hypocrisy sauce for me to laugh at while you try and untangle your own delusion and nonsense.

It should be a good fight, but c'mon man, no way is this fight Ali vs Frazier level.
I like both guys (AJ/ Fury), but they couldn't even hold Ali jock strap (at this point), let alone Frazier.
AJ just got blown out by fat boy Ruiz, Ali and Frazier would box and destroy him. Fury punched himself in the face.

Arum is just trying to make some money, but don't try to over hype this fight, we already want it, stop with the b s.

Frazier, the bar-room brawler with 1 arm, would box
AJ? Hahahahahahahahaha.

AJ would destroy that little bar-room brawler with no skill. Frazier did nothing but beat the most overrated athlete in history in Ali. He lost to a bum in Bonavena who truly was a cave man with no skill. He had a life and death struggle with another bum in Bugner. Sorry, but this is the usual American delusion. AJ made an obvious mistake which he corrected in the rematch and dominated. AJ has proven more than Frazier. Head2head, AJ destroys him without Frazier putting up any kind of fight.

[Sid-Knee]

Biggest fight in british history maybe.

Their skill levels aren't even close to what ali and frazier had at the time. It wont be a war slug fest like ali and frazier. They'll jab and move around clinch and throw some hard punches here and there... Hopefully I'm wrong but fury will fight aj like he did klitschko and aj will fight fury like he did ruiz 2.

The skill level isn't on the level of Ali/Frazier? Neither Frazier or Ali had any skill. Frazier was a Bar-room brawler with 1 arm. Ali was a punch bag because he had no defence. Why else do you think that many bums was able to hit Ali so often and give him Parkinson's?

Both AJ and Fury have more skill between their fingernails than both Frazier and Ali together. So stop with the delusion and madness. You speak exactly like a cult member speaks. The evidence can be found on film. Put this question to any member of the public who don't watch boxing and therefore not brainwashed, and they'd laugh at you for suggesting the they come anywhere near in the skill department.

[Sid-Knee]

I can't imagine this fight being bigger than Ali Vs Frazier 1, Tyson vs Holyfield 1 or 2, then Lewis Vs Tyson. Arum is trying to sell this fight.

Maybe in the U.S. But we're talking about the world here. So, tell me what you know about the world and their interest? You'd have to know to make this kind of comment.

[antrecasner]

Not even close. I can name probably 5 of the top of my head that are more anticipated fights.

Fighting in America makes sense if there was an American fighter.....two brits??? Of course it’s not the primary market.
