AJ fans in the extra seating that Eddie Hearn installed at Wembly for the Klitschko fight.

People like to mention Stub Hub but in a way it proves how big Joshua is.

All it proves is that those stadiums are full of people willing to pay for overpriced tickets on the secondary market.

Calling Wilder 'Bum Squad' is actually a compliment considering he can't even put bums in seats

[Vasyl’s dad]

On the day of Wilders fight, you got the Super Bowl, World Series, game 7 of the NBA finals and the Jay Z Beyoncé concert. Come on guys, just too much other stuff going on. It’s not like the heavyweight champion of the world is fighting. Be realistic.

[Outwest Exp 355]

You seriously expect to charge people a bucketload to sit near the top of a stadium where all you can really see is the screen and not the actual fighters fighting?

That aside AJ selling out in an hour (and equally the gate numbers) are irrelevant because a lot of Joshua tickets go to resellers who then upsell... hence his fights don't really sell out in an hour (though they do sell out) and the gate numbers are actually higher than advertised considering Hearn and Joshua have a hand in the StubHub pot.

Maybe in England 9 million is a big number. All I know is Canelo GGG sold 20 thousand seats and did triple that number.

Wilder still fighting Journeyman could be the reason

did everyone get off that same bus

This is the main reason.

England is obviously significantly smaller than America, a fraction of the size - therefore tv money shouldn't even be comparable - but with wilders lack of popularity it is.

Joshua is obviously big in England (and growing across some other countries) but were he that big in America he would be 100x the income.

Again... huge difference between what you can charge for seats in an arena than you can a stadium. More people does not necessarily mean more money... and that applies both in the UK and the US.
