    No he isn't Ronaldo is the biggest sports star in the world at present, Joshua doesn't even make the top ten !

    call me what you want i dont care, if people had my attitude then this fight wouldnt be PPV. If you wanna pay for the fight go ahead I have no qualms about it at all, why would I. If I dont think something is value for money then I wont pay for it. If you must know I subscribe to a premium streaming service. Again as I said feeling bitter about it IMO solves nothing so I dont see the point.

    He said he is the biggest name in THE sport, not sport. And he is defo one of the biggest draws in boxing no doubts about it.

    Id say he is without doubt one of the top stars in the world of boxing you could argue Canelo & Pac (who is still technically active) are bigger but on a world basis but there wont be much in it.

    Who’s bigger?

    Who sells out bigger arenas?

    Canelo - Golovkin 1.3mil PPV buys to a much bigger target audience. Joshua done 1.5m! Then nearly 700k in showtime too.

    Mayweather has retired.

    Who sells more PPV’s and tickets than joshua? Globally.

    Be nice if you could tell the rest of us what this Premium streaming service is so we can all sign up and get the PPV fights for free ????

    Be honest delboy82 that does,nt happen these sites are not legal. I aint bitter about it one bit, if I want a PPV I buy it if I don't then it probably means I aint interested or doing something else with my time, so you can put that in your pipe and smoke it !

    There are plenty of the premium sites, they are legal, different countries have different legal issues in terms of copyright laws (Sweden for example). A lot of these sites originate from these countries. As I said by all means buy it dont buy it, doesnt bother me in the slightest. Dunno why your taking it personally?

    This ppv card has been such a mess from Whyte's opponent to Pulev.If Warren was in Charge,he would have got slated,Hearn maybe is getting a free pass of sorts.Hopefully the 70,000 there boo him when he speaks afer the fight,to remind him what we think about his Matchmaking and so he dosent get too giddy.

    Granted the Whyte fight is poor but Pulev was mando and they cant help him getting injured. AJ has to fight his mandatory, that just the way it is.

    I often defend Hearn on these pages but smell a con job. Firstly Pulev says he will not be fit in time for fight then a deal is agreed, bill promoted as AJ v a top 3 heavyweight, they sell out 80000 arena then Pulev who said he couldn't be fit in time isn't fit but wait a minute the guy we had a deal with to train incase is fit. Though according to Hearn this was not because they had concerns about Pulevs fitness, what a load of ****. In the meantime the stadium sells out then we get told Pulev isn't fit ! Yes those who say Frank would have been gave dogs abuse for this are correct, dogs abuse Hearn deserves.

    Problem with this theory is it wouldn't of mattered if the opponent was Pulev or Takam it still would of sold out. People are paying to watch AJ.
