Lennox Lewis He(Joshua) doesn't want those guys. He's happy being protected in England

Just browsing the thread and not getting involved in anyones dispute.

Link below says he is a dual citizen of England and Canada

Honestly, how are you not aware that Joshua and Co are trying to make a fight with Wilder? Your whole argument is propped up on a blatant lie, and as soon as you acknowledge it, your argument collapses. Just say it, “Joshua is trying to make the Wilder fight.”

 

Havent said it does or doesnt change anything. I just said I was browsing, saw your post and just gave a link that said Lewis was a citizen of England and Canada.
Openly said I am not in your debate, so not sure even what you are going on about? I havent read what you are disputing.
Why would I want to discredit Lewis? I think he is one of the best HWs ever

You need to calm down a bit and not be on the defence so much. I wonder if ESB is getting to you a bit lately?

 

Are you talking before he was champ or when he was champ?
In title fights -
Martin is 6ft 5, with an 80" reach and was 29
Breazeale is 6ft 7 with an 81 1/2" reach and was 30
Parker is 6ft 4" with a 76" reach and was 26

when you consider he has had 7 world title fights where Takam was a sub, and 2 of them were unifications I dont really see what you think is so bad or wrong with the competition?


Before he was a world champ and with only 15 fights he had faced undefeated 6ft 4" Whyte who was 27 at the time and with a 78" reach and had beaten undefeated 6ft 7" Cornish who was 28


I dont think that is bad

 

Why would he need to fight outside of the UK?
Many fighters before they are champs fight outside of their own country but not so much as champions. Consider Hatton in his 2nd fight was in America but it wasnt against a fighter threatening his progression, so wouldnt really be considered the same as defending a world title abroad.
Fighters tend to go and stay (understandably) where they can make the most and it does appear for fighters like Joshua that he can make his money at home.

What is so wrong with that?
Floyd Mayweather I believe lived in Vegas which is where many of his big fights were, it was where he could make big money. He wasnt defending abroad... He didnt have to

 

Really dont worry mate.

I ask questions to alot of peoples posts or just read one post in a thread and answer something on it when not really reading the whole thing.

I actually enjoy reading your posts even when I dispute them and like the passion that you post with

 

its good that you aknowledge Wilders 1st 22 opponents not being very good. But to be fair there have been many Boxers who dont start to make serious moves in this sport until the have had 20 fights or so. How do you rate Wilders opposition from 22 to 32? I think it doesnt look much better than his 1st 22.

 

With due respect and with the money and crowds he draws, I dont think he needs to be travelling.
If all eyes are on America, I would have expected Wilder to be a bigger draw and more interest in potential US fights like him against Miller, but Miller was in the UK to watch Chisora/Whyte 2

 

Let’s face it, Wilder will take the safe route and fight the feather fisted Fury. He will still get beaten but not the savage beating he’d receive from Whyte or Joshua.

 

You say it yourself that HW boxing is dead in the US. So with that argument Joshua doesnt need to travel.
I dont know how big Fury/Wilder was. How big was the venue and were all seats sold?
It was big im sure because Fury sold the fight well. Also American HW boxing, I dont think is dead. They have many HWs and im sure it would be very big had Wilder got a win over Fury and im sure the word lineal would have been branded around
