If Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder fought who would be the A-side fighter ?

Sad for Wilder but the reality is both Derek Chisora and Dillian Whyte sell more PPV’s than he does.

 

Easy fix, A1-side and A2-side.

Oh wait....

 

AJ is the A Side, no doubts, more belts, bigger PPVs, huge numbers but let's get it done and split 50/50.

Both world champions and Wilder would be undefeated coming off a Fury win.


One fight in the US and one in the UK, both fight signed 50/50.


Let's stop the messing around, they are both going to earn tens of millions, no need for either of them to begrudge the other a huge payday.

 

Hold on there, what prices do they offer their PPV's with? Wilder's PPV are more expensive

 

Business wise everybody knows. Fighter wise, Wilder has the higher position. He hasn't been bossed and KO'd by a short fat pig yet.
I do think Ruiz got lucky in the first fight, but nevertheless Joshua was exposed, he folded, wasn't like he went down swinging.
Wilder took serious damage in the Ortiz fight but showed more determination and stopped Ortiz.
Fury has overcome serious damage a number of times.
Joshua is clearly not the 'warrior' he makes himself out to be, not relative to his rivals.

 

Lol AJ has actually pussed out and quit as we saw in the Ruiz 1 fight, he did not go out on his shield at all. In the rematch he used his advantages and boxed to a safe decision. But that aura of invincibility is just non-existent.

 

Wilder sells 7k tickets (half given away for free) and does 150k PPV buys

The other sells out MSG (not even his country) and 80k stadiums and does 1mill+ every single time

How is this even up for debate?

 

That would be fine if Wilders PPV sold! Unfortunately they don’t. AJ’s latest PPV broke the UK pay per view record with 1.6 Million buys that generated £40 Milliion pound alone on its own. Add in DAZN revenues, the money the Saudi’s put in, sponsorship and gate and you can see that conservatively AJ cleated circa $70 Million for Ruiz rematch at least. This is not about who is the better fighter it’s about who puts bums on seats and generates the most money.

 

When Fury says Wilder isn't this big knockout king that everyone says he is...was he referring to this guy below?

WILDER IS THE MOST DANGEROUS FIGHTER ON THE PLANET! HAYMON EASIEST PEOPLE I'VE DELT WITH
Tyson Fury-Jul 31, 2018

 

The guy who got thrashed by a walking Burrito then stuck and move to get away from the XXX-Burrito man in a rematch is the A side.

Couple of Interesting points
1. AJ became the 'A' side fighter about 4 years into his career whereas Floyd the biggest $ maker in Prize Fighting History had to fight 11 years to become A side. And it took Oscar (11yrs) to anoint him the A side money maker of the game
2. It seems across the pond, most fighters have a bigger fan base than Americans be it Joshua, Froch, Haye, Khan, Kessler, Calzaghe, Hatton just to name a few.

Wilder may never be an A side. But He can beat one!

 

He got up 4 times numpty, four and the ref waved it off. So-called "Auras of invincibility" are for fools hoping to find the Lord almighty in the next boxing champion. No mortal man is invincible.

But Joshua knocks out Donkey, it will be even more humiliating than the schooling Fury gave him.

 

He hasn't done it so far in his career, so wake me up when it happens (spoiler: it won't).

 

I guess I am not so quick to down HW champions as most do.
If I had to say: One HW champ with several belts got starched by a chunk, then stuck and moved from the chunkster & the The other champ can't box & runs from competition.

I would look for a new sport to follow. Until then, he is still writing his legacy. I will judge him & AJ when they retire.

 

AJ fought the same way v Parke aside from the movement, it wasn`t rocket science against a fighter that can`t cut off the ring.

 

Indecipherable. Are you foreign?
