1 Anthony Joshua vs Joseph Parker – 1.832m 2 Anthony Joshua vs Wladimir Klitschko – 1.631m 3 Anthony Joshua vs Andy Ruiz 2 – 1.575m 4 David Haye vs Tony Bellew – 1.529m 5 Anthony Joshua vs Oleksandr Usyk - 1.249m 6 Anthony Joshua vs Alexander Povetkin – 1.247m 7 Anthony Joshua vs. Oleksandr Usyk – 1.232m 8 Wladimir Klitschko vs. David Haye – 1.170m 9 Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Ricky Hatton – 1.150m 10 Oleksandr Usyk vs. Dereck Chisora Sky Box Office – 1.059m 11 Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Conor McGregor – 1m 12 Anthony Joshua vs Kubrat Pulev - 948k. 13 Anthony Joshua vs. Carlos Takam – 887k 1,2,3,5,6,7,12,13 From top 13 = 8 are AJs. I think that speaks for itself. Also how much money he and Usyk have made: Joshua is anticipated to make $119 million in total, including sponsorship payments. Usyk is anticipated to make the same $75 million(the pot from Saudi was 150m., so 75m. each). Joshua made over $13.6 million plus 60% of the PPV sales for their first encounter, while Usyk made $4.1 million plus 40% of the PPV sales.
Wow in 20 years from now I'll tell my grandkids how a bodybuilder named Anthony got the most PPV buys to prove he was the best Crossfit champion of all times. Shame people will just be watching Fury Wilder III on replay and AJ will be all but forgotten, but I'll make sure grandkids will know. Turns out buying gold in a London Olympics and being hand gifted everything your whole career whilst the gawping casuals follow every ab flex works wonders God I wish I knew how many PPV buys or belts Ali had...that is what really defined him. Or Jack Johsnon or Joe Louis or any of them other people who wear red gloves. Anyway i'm off to jerk off to Mike Tyson because he was amazing I think.
Sorry I'm a casual I don't know what Fury means. Can you send me some topless pictures of Anthony thanks.
No wonder Joshua has made more money than Fury, No one in his right mind would pay to watch a 6'9" unathletic goofy-looking mentally ill boxer like Tyson Fury. Boxers like Usyk win because they are physically fit and mentally healthy. Fury wins because he's bigger than his opponents.
Who the hell cares how much a man has earned next to his peer when it's in the millions of dollars. More money than they can spend in a lifetime. ultimately nothing changes. Fury will always be a bipolar crackhead who will likely see the grave far too young. AJ will always be a dumb roadman with no confidence. Floyd will always be a vapid soulless loner & Sergio Martinez will always be the love of my life. I love you all. God bless you.
It blows my mind that 800K people bought Joshua V Takam. Who looked at that and thought "yep, worth 20 quid". Same for Bellew beating up geriatric Haye. 1.5 million people parted with their money. Meanwhile poor old Josh Taylor became undisputed watched by a television audience comprised entirely of his close family and friends. Also, it's typical that the most boring fight on the list was the most watched.
Very good,the best UK ppv figures Matchroom media did well no denying it. So the peak ppv Joshua did was when he fought Parker in 2018 and a rapid decline since,sadly nothing lasts forever and it will be interesting to see Joshua’s ppv figures for the remainder of his career. Will the loss of his belts and the true face of Joshua being shown to the World during his meltdown after the second loss to Usyk have any effect on his marketability or will he remain unscathed ? Time will tell .
