one Instagram followers or whatever means people who actually like you. Many People do not like Wilder, so those people are not going to follow him.. so that does not equate with how known they are. I in no way at all mean to say that Wilder was a bigger star before this fight, neither. But the controversy around this fight alone has made people familiar with both him amd Tyson Fury who did not know them before. Because of the controversy of this fight, it is going to do incredibly larger numbers than the previous fight and any fight this year with the exception of of course a big Canelo fight or other American Boxers. Wilders fights compared to the quality match making wise and performance and skill are hella stale compared to Joshua, so his numbers and popularity was waaay lower. I am talking about post Wilder amd Tyson 2 only.. People are not more excited to see him amd Joshua. And I wasn’t saying my lil survey proves anything, but obviously I’m going to ask the Japanese people around me who they know. Why wouldn’t I? The point is it’s a bigger fight and better to fight and make millions off both fights than to lose millions in court because you don’t want to honor your agreement in which your promoter delayed the fight in the first place due to concerns for ticket numbers. I want to see both fights ...Your mini survey with your co-workers mean shyt, man, it's not a representative sample. 6 ppl for fukk's sake
Joshua has like 10 millions more followers on Instagram but Wilder is more famous, yeah, alright
Joshua also sells more tickets in his own, earns more, etc...
Wilder is likely more famous in the US and that's it,but not even sure about that tbh
cause of shyt like this
it's relative obviously. When the level of opp rose some of his limitations stood out more (even in cases where he won like the Ortiz fights)
I mean, the fight was over by then though. Im just saying if someone played...tennis and got a medal in the olympics. Would you be able to say they cant play tennis
Maybe Im missing something here. Im sure you can also find a lot of clips of him being fundamentally sound too.
no i dont think so..why?
Fat joe brother called him his nephew and mentioned about repping it for the family.

bruh you had a hard time being convinced that jake paul could beat nate robinson and ben askren even with enough evidence to go by
It's a far cry from the skill set of heavyweights from past eras. I'll pose this question: if Wilder didn't have ATG power, would you think he was a good boxer? Does Wilder have the boxing skills to win a 12 round fight via decision against any of the top heavyweights?
Of course he can box when compared to the average person, but as a professional it leaves A LOT to be desired. Just look at how Fury took advantage of Deontay's poor footwork to knock him down in the rematch --- Fury is not a power puncher, Wilder wasn't hurt. He just positioned himself so poorly that Fury only needed to tap him for Wilder to go down.
Opposition becomes a glaring issue as well. For as good as the Ortiz win was in 2018, Wilder didn't rack up more wins against good opposition. It's easy to look skilled against jobbers, but how do you look against top comp. We've only seen Wilder go against Fury and Ortiz.
And I mean, credit to Wilder for sticking to his strongest asset, right? But that's also what made him vulnerable to Fury.
But he does have ATG power so its a logical step he based his skills around that
Fury a way better boxer than Wilder so I mean. Shouldnt that be expected? I didnt say he was the best at boxing just that he can box. Hell, he even landed on Fury in first match and it took a act of god to bring him back.
I just never got the hate thats all. Naw hes not Ali or anything but flat out saying he cant box seems a bit much.
My disdain for that cac clouded my better judgement
40 pro fighters got beat by someone who cant box then. Make it make sense ahch. Theres less than ten or so dudes on earth you could say "yea they could probs beat Wilder in a boxing match"
I just never got the hate. Dude has to have some serious skills to make it that far even with the whole one punch man shyt.
at if he would survive or be successful
