Is this why Fury is so jealous of him? The kid is selling out arenas all over England, knocking fighters out and staying humble in the process. Too bad Hearn can't get Brook this type of fan fare.
A million PPV's in the UK is like Pac vs Floyd in the US. But it's highly doubtful that a million PPV's were sold, but Joshua might actually get that against a world class opponent.
Staying humble? You're having a laugh. I'm amazed people think of him as humble because he occasionally says "stay humble" after finishing bragging. Nothing wrong with him being super confident but he's anything other than humble.
If boxing teaches us anything, is to be careful to annoint young promising heavyweight fighters as savours of the sport, billion dollar athletes etc. Joshua is talented, but he hasn't been in a fight with a proper top 10 fighter yet. To suggested that Joshua will be worth more than the biggest earner in all sports is ridiculous
Think the humble refers to how little he seems to have changed since s****om - living with his mum still, keeping the same company, confidence but no arrogance, the fact he seems to have plenty of time for his fans. All of which constitutes 'humble.'
I was pretty amazed how long he spent on Saturday after the fight taking photos with fans. Was like 45 mins
