  • SeGoodland doesn't know how money works

    I can't respond to him, because like many cowardly AJ fans, he has me blocked.

    But I have to respond to this:

    "If he is making more money than any Heavyweight and he holds 3 of the 4 belts, why should be go and try and break America? In my opinion, he doesn't have to or need to. The world should be coming to him."

    That isn't how money works. The US is where you go to make the biggest fights and purses. It's not possible for the world to come to him and generate the same revenue. Hearn wanted Wilder to come to him, but Hearn said the fight was only worth 40 million if the world came to AJ.

    If AJ came to the world, the fight was worth 100 million.

    That's a big difference.

    Lennox Lewis, Joe Calzaghe, Naseem Hamed, etc all made their biggest money in America. By far. US PPV is how you make the monster purses. That's the way it's always been.

    If AJ is happy staying in the UK, that's OK by me. But, there's a lot of bullshyt mixed messages about wanting to be an international star, wanting to make a name in America, but then they turn right around and say, "we don't need to leave the UK". If you're happier in the small pond, just be straight about that and about the fact that you'll never be as big as if you actually make your name in the states.
    For me, it's not about US vs UK, it's about dropping the BS and being honest about the situation.

      Always love it when you spit truth (and sometimes venom). Great poster with some great knowledge.

      Personal favourite from you though has to be this;

        This is how money works in boxing:

        If you are earning over $25million per fight in the UK - plus lord knows how much on top from sponsorships and network deals - you fight in the US when you decide the time is right, not when somebody else tells you to.

          But you all say no-one knows who Joshua is stateside and wilders not a big attraction based on past figures. So how's it going to be a 100 mill fight if no one knows who 'Anthony Johnson' is?

            Not gonna take any kind of lessons from someone who lies about the ages of his accounts to heighten his already bloated sense of self importance.

            Funny how there's three people apparently on this account yet only one posting style and attitude.

            Absolute melt.

              WBC WBA IBF - you were blocked for a reason. You talk utter nonsense on every thread or topic you decide to throw your boring and uneducated opinion in.

              Thanks.

                  People block you because you are a self-admitted shill.
