Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua: Me, Fury and Haye - We Have To Fight!

But the UK is an inferior dreary place to live almost like a prison sentence life in the UK. Joshua should move to America with all the open spaces and beautiful sights and freedom. The UK offers nothing but cramped wet sunless days of misery and a dreary sad existence. USA all the way. If Josh had a brain then Josh comes to America.

But all this makes no sense as you are there.

A laugh a minute you ,why would we want any of our top heavyweights to go to the usa, they are the top guys in the world ,the world needs to come to them.We have a division of heavyweight here that could fight great fights amongst themselves at the very top level for years to come and Wilder don't cut it, he wouldn't make the top five.

The US is able to globally market. Anthony Joshua has the potential to be bigger than just a UK star. The US can globally market him to every walk of life.

The WWE for example. These dudes roll around play fighting each other in their underwear..... But they sell out major arenas all over the damn world.

A huge world superstar like that can only help our sport of boxing as a whole.

Do you think the public in the USA would get behind a British fighter and make him a superstar?

I know Lewis was pretty big everywhere, but it seemed he got more love after he retired.

The US would eat AJ up (in a good way).

All the guys would like him because of his heavy hitting style, and all the females would love him for his looks. He'd be huge over here. Showtime was promoting AJ more than Charles Martin leading up to the fight even.

Heavyweight Boxing was very different when Lewis ruled the HW division. It's heartland was the U.S all the top guys were either US residents or based there. Is that true now? Joshuas UK fight PPV generates a lot of money and large passionate crowds move it to 3am for the U.S. And you lose that.. I'd say he'll fight in Vegas but only against US fighters like Wilder anything else he'll be at Wembley hopefully.

Fair enough, that will be interesting to see how it pans out.

He doesn't seem to have a lot of charisma or personality outside of the ring but he has that nice humble angle to sell, which people like. Plus he has a bit of a back story of bad guy turned good.

Then again, he still has to prove he's a top fighter in the ring first.
