    Would be a good test, seems like all these opponents coming over are overwhelmed by the crazy UK environment. Joshua just walks in like he owns the place. Would be cool to see how he responds to being boo'd for once.....

    The only fight I could see him fighting in America for would be vs Wilder.

    AJ simply makes too much money here in the UK, probably more than anybody in boxing right now.

    I wonder if they'll take the hit of some defences v current level fighters, if he beats wlad, on non ppv in the US and UK to build his brand up over there before a Wilder fight?

    There is no value for AJ or his opponent fighting outside the UK. The money is here.

    Maybe if showtime put up big money for wider v AJ in the states but the fight still probably makes more here.
