More an indictment of the state of boxing in the US than it is of Joshua's popularity.

Originally posted by WBC WBA IBF View PostWilder has defended his world championship on free network TV multiple times, garnering millions of viewers.
Wilder stars in a very popular cable TV reality show.
Wilder is clearly far more well known in this country than AJ is. Just as AJ is far more well known in his country.
The idea that nobody knows Wilder in the US is pretty silly considering his history as a strong ratings draw. Wilder's knockout of Stiverne went viral and helped make him far more well known as well.

Originally posted by theface07 View PostThis is totally ridiculous. Nobody outside of hardcore boxing fans has a clue who Wilder is. Joshua is already an international superstar. That is a fact. It doesn't matter what you think about Joshua as a boxer or whether he is the real deal or not. He is way more recognized internationally than Wilder. You are delusional in your claims that Wilder is a big star in the US. Keep on riding the Wilder hype train. You are dramatically inflating his popularity.

Wilder fans girls rabbiting shyte, AJ is the people's champ, loved in middleast, china, Japan, Europe, Africa etc. Wilder is known only in Alabama fighting bums. At 40 fights, the Bellend with just one HW fight has a better resume, and that's a fact!

But that's twice as much. So that's actually selling a lot more.
Anthony Joshua vs. Deontay Wilder, if both are still undefeated, and fighting for the WBC/WBA/IBF/WBO undisputed heavyweight championship of the world, would easily do 250,000 buys. The public's fascination, and more importantly, the media's fascination, with crowning an undisputed heavyweight champion is immense and the coverage for the fight would be through the roof.
