    Just because someone commits a sin, it doesn't mean they're non-Muslims. It's actually haram to call someone/make takfir of someone saying they're a 'fake muslim' or 'non-muslim' just because they commit a sin.

    In any case, Anthony Small is a scary extremist ISIS sympathiser who I fear will one day will commit a terrorist act.

    Anthony Joshua may one day end up becoming Muslim, some of his mates are devout Muslims. He just wont publicise it because there are narrow minded pricks who will withdraw support for that reason.

    This was Jodie Marsh before she started glamour modelling and was a bookworm, I doubt she was so interested in guys at the time. We don't know if Jodie tooled and humiliated him when rejecting him - although I'm certainly not justifying bullying, either.

    She did actually indirectly admit it was Eddie.

    the original statement can never come true in this current era

    boxing on PPV means his market and exposure is severely limited.

    the internet helps immensly and putting bums on seats at live venues joshua is as good as any fighter but fighters of bygone eras fought on free tv with only a few channels available and in an era where everyone read there sport on newspapers and boxing was a lot bigger than it is now.

    Well I'm all for people humiliating Eddie Hearn anyway. The occasional bit of ridicule is what he - Mr. I got a baby Bentley for my 18th birthday - needs.

    I agree with boxing used to be bigger in America, but it is bigger than it has ever been in Europe, and Britian, that is just the truth.

    Yes I understand what you are saying about PPV, but the other side of the argument is you can watch all these fights for free a couple of days later on YouTube, and we have more access to these fights than ever before.

    Yes less people read sports newspapers, but more people than ever before read it on the news on Google, forums like this and read the news straight from the boxers live on Twitter, Facebook, Instigram etc.

    I disagree. Boxers today can be bigger than ever before, and that is what we are going to see with Joshua in a couple more years from now.
