        Lol at those figures, he's never sold out a venue and lets be honest the prices for those tickets were likely pitiful, I think ring side for the Molina fight were $200, lmao. Ortiz ringside were better at $800 I believe, but still far less than you'd expect for a heavyweight fight, VIP tickets are £2K for Joshua fights and with the stubhub deal in reality some tickets will be far more as many of the best tickets go straight to the resale market.

            Because Hearn said he draws 6 thousand ( might be confusing Wilder for Jacobs ) so his minions say he can’t draw

            His ticket prices are non existent and ignore that he has the 2nd highest attendance at Barclays and ignore that Joshua nose bleeds start at like 30-40

            AJ is a mixture of Alis celebrity , Mayweather money making ability and a dash of Jesus
            Wilder should grovel to fight him and consider himself lucky to even be considered to be allowed in the same ring as this modern day deity

              It's a comparative thing Larry. Those crowds are good until they're compared to gates of 70-90k. No disrespect to Wilder but you are comparing apples to oranges. Joshua is in a different league these days.

                  Steady on! I totally get why you would say that given the massive disparity in what each guy brings to the table in both boxing terms (4 belts to 1, superior resume etc) and of course commercially (90k gates, millions PPV, commercial sponsorships) but I can't help feeling even so you've gone a little overboard there.

                  No matter how much you may think so, no matter how much he towers above Wilder in terms of achievement or indeed boxing ability AJ is not a God.

                    You do realise Wilder-Ortiz was priced around the same as Joshua-Parker? Wilder couldn't even sell out a 19k arena.
