    It won't, enough casuals willy happily pay to see Joshua so they can tweet about what a beast he is, just a quick look through some stuff Hearn has "favourited" on twitter shows how the casuals have taken to Saturday

    "The best card I've ever seen"
    "The best Hearn card ever"
    "The best card of my lifetime"
    Are just 3 of the things people have said today

    It's because casuals are only comparing it to other Sky cards, they don't realise that boxing exists outside of Sky and that Hearn isn't the only promoter. To them his word is gospel.

    I agree, one gave the fighters he didn't like "funny" nicknames which is always a sure fire way to spot a casual
    "U****" and "tbell" were 2 of them

    How does Dereck make featherweight by Saturday? That's a training montage in itself.

    Which sums up the level of opposition he'll be fighting Saturday

    Can almost guarantee he calls out Joshua after he wins

    Written by casual fans mate, Saturday night is a big night for them, in there minds they've followed AJ throughout his pro career and wrote how much of a "beast" he is every time he wins now by ordering a fight it's showing them how into boxing they are

    I have loads of friends who are casual fans and they are truly excited for Saturday.
    That wasn't any of my friends writing that to Hearn by the way :D

    No matter how casual or serious a boxing fan you are. This is one of hearns better cards.

    Still stupidly 1 sided, joshua at 1/16. Shocking that a main even of a ppv can be so 1 sided to the bookies

    I can't wait until this weekend is over. I work in a place with a big work force, who are predominately men and all I keep hearing every time I'm in the canteen is all these opinions they've literally just plucked straight from thin air. The same people who are speaking as if they're experts one minute the next they say things like "who is Luke Campbell?"
    Was working with one who I know doesn't have sky and would never pay for a PPV and he says "I would fancy Whyte or Joshua to Ko Fury." On what grounds are you basing that on considering you've never watched any of them live. Just because people see a couple of highlights of mismatches.
    Thing is with these people there's no point giving your opinion because they're so deluded and gullable they won't have anything you say and I end up cringing all the way through. So I literally just nod in agreement now.
    If I hear another person say how amazing the night will be I think I'll stay off until Monday haha.
