    British Airways, Under Armour, Jaguar Land Rover, StubHub, Beats by Dr Dre, Lucozade, Lynx, Hugo Boss, Audemars Piguet, William Hill, Sky, DAZN, and more that I may be overlooking.

    It really is remarkable.

    Where does a resounding victory over top contender Whyte leave 'AJ'?

    Guys, what makes 'AJ' so marketable? What is it about this athlete that is able to convey so many brand identities? If you take a look through the endorsements, you'll see that it's an eclectic mix. Is it Joshua's versatility? What makes him so versatile?

    Say what you want about him, but Hearn has done a great job creating a fighter as marketable as AJ. All these deals probably already have Joshua set for life financially, as long as he manages his wealth wisely which he seems to be doing.

    Overhyped during his win streak and never said anything controversial or contentious although the mask has slipped a couple times

    Eddie Hearn has done a fantastic job.

    But does 'AJ' deserve the bulk of the credit? Six six, stunning physique, good looks, personable, an electrifying style, unmatched ability. Perhaps Eddie should be thanking Anthony Joshua.

    It was easy to run with after London 2012 and boy did they run with it.

    A lot of athletes were still fresh on the tip of everyone's tongues after the 2012 Olympics and Eddie made the most of it with AJ.

    Most notably his meltdown after Usyk II. That was startling to see.

    Just a couple of examples of racism, superior race, blm speeches etc

    Joshua was the ultimate, guys want to be him and girls want to be with him, good looking, tall, muscle bound, knockouts and seemed a cool personality as such, be a while since it replicates it self with another at heavyweight like tht

    No. Look at that list of sponsors! Not an Iceland in sight. Put it this way, he won't have to release a book, sing, or do a book signing for his bread.

    Forum needs a clear up. Muppets like this and @Brixton Bomber need the chop.
