PARKER's PROMOTER Flying to UK to SIGN CONTRACT

Joshua's glass chin is like the elephant in the room. Everyone knows it's there but very few want to acknowledge it.

 

Good stuff props to JP hope he wins and gets 55% in the rematch.

 

Not while Wilder is demanding 50-50. Wilder will fight bums keeping the WBC belt hostage in America. The American Chris John.

 

This is exciting times.

Big finger to anyone who hates on either of these fighters through this progress, both have titles and there is no ducking or BS. These are two very valuable 0s on the line and while AJ is the favourite, he is also one of only active guys who could be >50% chance to beat - and that is including another title holder.

This is the kind of fight we need, and hopefully it's a decent one regardless of the outcome. Can't wait! Too much 0-protecting going on lately.

 

Joshua and Parker are the leaders of the heavyweight division because they're about to finally (as the Rock would say it) give us a unification.

All respect to the champ Wilder, he's been unfortunate not to get Povetkin but at least the Ortiz talks are promising. Some might say it took Parker vs Joshua for Wilder to finally take a big name opponent but the big picture here is that we will now see a big fight from the bronze bomber.

March 31st is when the heavyweight division returns to the highest level when we see the best, of the best

 

He's got the Fury connection now. Tyson says the merchandise is top notch.

 

The glass chin accusations are childish and have no basis in reality. This is heavyweight boxing. Anyone gets hit flush on the chin they are going to know about it. Joshua took Wlad's best right hand and got up from it. If he had a glass chin he wouldn't have.

If Joshua has a weakness, it's his defence, not his chin.

 

what? to show that parkers promoter is a complete idiot when he could just fax the signed copy over?

 

Same old "protect" Joshua answers lmao. Same ole same ole. They haven't started negotiations yet.

 

Wilder doesn't negotiate his fights moron.

 

Parker himself will probably be heading over later in the week to do a presser. Probably wouldn't work so well if they just faxed a picture of his team over to staple to a few chairs.

 

I hope whatever's happens BOTH men get the respect they deserve.

They have made this happen, they could do what Wilder does and have meaningless defence after meaningless defence and hide but they are putting it on the line.

I like the pair of them and hope it's a great fight, they earn lorry loads of money and we see a rematch.

 

People that say stuff like this just shows they don't know what they're talking about.

Name another heavyweight who draws more viewers than Wilder in the US?

There are none.

Hell, Wilder draws more viewers in the US than Joshua does. Wilder vs late sub Washington pulled in 1.89 million viewers in the U.S. Joshua-Takam, by contrast, pulled in 335,000 viewers.

Hell, Wilder-Washington drew more viewers than the live broadcast Joshua-Klitschko in the US, and Joshua-Klitschko was shown on HBO and Showtime the same day. The COMBINED LIVE audience in the U.S. watching HBO and Showtime broadcasts of Joshua-Wlad were 1.4 million.

Wilder-Washington drew more than that.

Name another heavyweight in the US who could draw that kind of audience?

Hell, Wilder-Stiverne II on Showtime (which was considered a mismatch going in) DREW MORE than Joshua-Wlad on either HBO or Showtime.

Joshua draws a ton of people to the stadiums in the UK. Wilder doesn't in the US. But Wilder draws more viewers watching at home.

If Joshua wants to crack the US market, JOSHUA NEEDS WILDER.

Otherwise, Joshua can just remain a Domestic UK heavyweight.

Joshua's fights don't draw flies in terms of TV viewers in the U.S.

 

Can you please post viewing figures in the UK for Wilder-Washington?

What about UK figures for Wilder - Stiverne II?
