    He just fought In front of the 2nd biggest boxing crowd ever at the Barclays Centre over 14,000 people and the TV ratings for his fights are repeatedly large,so as much as you keep trying to say he has know fans the facts show you are wrong

    I doubt Joshua vs Wilder is next, but i hope it happens in 2018.

    That arena is brand new! It's not like it was built in 1966 and hosted 500 box fights. Wilder is NOT a draw.

    It's not my opinions. Look at Wilder's purses. He earns $1.5 million per fight. As a 7-defense HW belt holder. Those are the most pitiful purses that any American HW belt holder ever earned at 7 defenses. In the last 40 years of boxing. This isn't opinion, this is a cold hard fact.

    Let me present it to you another way. Dillian Whyte, a guy with no title let alone the 40-0 record of Wilder, made more against Chisora (another guy without a belt) than Wilder made vs. Ortiz. When AJ fought Whyte (a non title bout), his purse was FOUR TIMES what Wilder made for his WBC title fight at the same time. Let that sink in for a second. That is how unpopular Wilder is!

    If Wilder was popular, his fights would sell out in 1 hour. They don't. Half the tickets vs. Ortiz were unsold going into the last week. If Wilder was such a TV ratings hit, he'd make $5 million, $10 million purses. He doesn't. Ever wonder why Wilder is not on PPV? Nobody knows him!

    You need to update your info and if you live in the US then you don't understand how quick things happen.

    Funny how the uninformed minority continue to pretend this isn't going to be a big fight.

    Eddie Hearn might just be a bit better informed than you guys and it is him who will be stumping up money to help ensure the fight happens.

    Hearn is not only saying how big this fight will be and how keen he is to make it happen, we all know the reason he gets out of bed in the morning is to make money, and he wants his percentage here of what will be a very large number.

    "Wilder is becoming a bigger star now and that's what we want" - Eddie Hearn.

    Some seem to be taking that like a spear through the heart.

    Personally hoping Parker beats Joshua. But with the rematch clause in their contract, Parker would need to beat Joshua twice to be able to move on and fight Wilder for all the belts.

    Wilder needed a bigger name on his hit list. No shame in what Eddie said

    Before any Joshua-Wilder talk AJ has to beat Joseph Parker. OK we all know AJ will have every advantage. both legal & illegal BUT Remember
    Buster Douglas ?? Joseph is coming to win

    Looking at the behind the gloves show AJ actually looked rattled by Parker and Parker definitely looked like a evil man..

    Whether that means anything of not come fight day remain to be seen..
