I'm not defending Joshua's record or attacking Wilder's (or vice versa) - I'm completely on the fence with this one - don't bat for either guy (although I think Hearn is a snake, don't know enough about the Wilder promotion team to say the same about them, but likely no different).
A reasonable indicator (just as an eyeball test) is to look at how many of the opponents are/were Ring top 10 when they fought them. I can't be bothered to look at past top 10s to see who was and wasn't at time of fighting, but Joshua has fought the current Ring numbers 3, 5, 6 and 8. Four out of nine (missing ones are Fury, Wilder, Ortiz, Kownacki, Miller)
Wilder has fought number 4 (Ortiz). One out of nine.
I guess you can call Joshua's opponents bums if your definition is 'not Wilder or Fury', but that's about it, then by extension the heavyweight scene currently has no depth beyond the three main players. And lets face it, Fury may or may not be back, so some doubt there, but conclusion ends up as 'all bums except Wilder and Joshua, and of those, xxxxxx is a bum too' (insert name to suit your bias). Hardly a convincing argument there !

Joshua won the WBA belt fighting Klitschko and even at 41 was a better fighter than Stiverne who Wilder won the belt of. Joshua acquired the other 2 belts fighting 2 undefeated champions.
Listen I won’t downplay this Lineal belt as regardless of the state of boxer it means something to you and why shouldn’t it as your man will be fighting for it in December.
I for one when Wilder wins will not be using the excuse that Fury was a shadow of himself. It’s not your fault and a win is a win.
Good luck in securing / confirming your place as 2nd best fighter on the planet.. meow

As for Hearn himself, we don't hate him any more than any other Boxing promoter. Everyone knows that it's Promoter's greed that prevents or delays more big fights than anything else.

Originally posted by champion4ever View PostI am sorry Anthony but it doesn't work that way. Your guy Joshua is too afraid of getting his ass whooped. How can he be considered the number one guy without taking on all challengers?

Like i said with you like or Not aj AND eh need to cough up the money 50-50 or no deal and they will never earn the respect of true boxing fans.
The facts he turned down $50 millon and then offer $15 millon to Wilder, you could have Mayweather and he be Amir Khan do you think he would take, yet alone a undfeatured Heavyweight champion
KNOW YOUR WORTH - You all upset has Wilder has done brillant coup getting the Lineal champion to face him so soon. Regardless if he wins or losses they can have a rematch whilst AJ gets to go the TOP rank with in house fighters how very original his dad Barry done the same with Chris Eubanks Gary Stretch, Ray Close all pointless fights but in the same promotional camp. Talked about fight Roy Jones, yet never happend
