My brother.. I went with a friend to bail someone that was arrested by FSARS guys... O boy... As I enter compound.. I realized that truly one doesn't need to have all the money in the world to realize that God is faithful... Chaiii... That place is not a good place at all... The torture they mete out to boys there will turn even the devil to a Saint.

This is the 1st tym AJ would lie, AJ knocked down Klitschko , Klitschko knocked down Kubrat very easily so tell me how would kubrat be able to beat AJ ? I av also seen deontay fight, he is not a beta match for AJ

he is trying to hype the coming fight with kubrat pulev and hopefully his fight with Deontay wilder if wilder beats Luiz ortiz in November.

He doesn't need to hype a sold out fight. Over 70,000 tickets sold so far. While Hugie Furry and Parker are struggling to attract meaningful sales. Kubrat is no contest or why did you think he first refused the fight?

they fight in different countries. The USA market is bigger than the uk market so more money. and the divisions floyds fought had many superstars( de hoya,pacquio,mosley,hatton,cotto,maidanda,canelo,zab judah etc) so there was interests in his fights. the heavyweight was dead in that era, pple were bored of the klitsccho brothers. aside from Wilder there is no other fight in the heavyweight that would generate big money for joshua, too many shitty and boring heavy weights out there, and joshua just dey start self

@ op, pls make sure of all things. Make research before posting. Mayweather is just but a lightweight champion. He doesn't even understand what it means to be a heavyweight champion.

He has a new deal which he signed spanning over 5 years or so and I quite agree with you about the US having a bigger market for boxing.

Anthony Joshua seems new in the game. I recently got to know about him so that should contribute to why Floyd is richer.


A quick search on Google couldn't show his net worth but this website claims he's got the potential of being the first billionaire fighter.

SuperSuave:
Nigerian-British boxing champion, Anthony Joshua has disclosed his two biggest threats in the heavyweight boxing division.

The reigning heavyweight champion told  Skysport during an interview that  Kubrat Pulev  – his next challenger, and  Deontay Wilder  are the biggest threats to his current rank.



This coming ahead of October 28, 2017, unified world heavyweight champion showdown at theMillennium Stadium in Cardiff.

The fight would be the first time of Anthony Joshua in the ring after a definite win overWladimir Klitschko in April this year.

Joshua hoped to have a lucrative rematch with the Ukrainian in Las Vegas, but Klitschko opted for retirement. This leaves him with Kubrat Pulev as the last and mandatory option.

Kubrat will most likely beat him. I keep on telling people that AJ's undoing would be his lack of tactical skills. He relies too much on his physique than skills. He was lucky to win against a 40+ Wladimir who even knocked him down during the fight and would have won him on TKO. Kubrat is a master tactician. AJ has to start working on tactics.

There is no higher category in boxing. Boxers are divided into weight classes.

He isn't hyping the fight. He is just being diplomatic with his answer , not trying to underrate his next opponents so that if the result doesn't swing in his way, Media wouldn't remind him of this interview where he would have choosen some other persons as his. biggest challenge

It seems you just got know about Mayweather right?
Mayweather has been fighting at top level for 25yrs, managed and trained by his ex-pro boxers Father and uncles.
He promoted his own fights thereby cutting out fight promoters and agents who would have been taking the Lion share of his fights purse.
Joshua only became pro- after 2012 Olympics, that means he's less than 5yrs as a pro.
He 'll need to keep winning big fights to attract huge pay checks for not less than 15yrs before he can make what Mayweather made.
While I'm huge fan of his, I think he needs to improve in his fighting skills alot. He's nowhere near the like Evander Holyfields, Mike Tyson or Heavyweights of the pre-2000s era.
He's has power but he muscles are too stiff, he is not mobile in the ring. When he meets fighters that have rocky chin and he's power is absorbed he might not win easily.

While I agree with you on his lack of tactical skills, I don't Kubrat doing more than Klitkcho did. Kubrat doesn't have tactical prowess of Klitchko he only has loads of years of experience.
AJ's lack of tactical skills is due to fact that he started boxing too late at 18-19. He was already too stiff at that age. All he needs to compensate for that weakness is resilience or endurance.

That deontay Wilder guy mehnnn...dude fights like a possessed gorilla. So unpredictable. Could really cause problems for AJ in my opinion.

Olodo ni ye. One punch from power puncher like Joshua is equivalent to the impact of one cement bag falling on you. One punch from AJ if released on 10 SARS at once will send at least 5 to their graves instanta.
