In other words AJ ain't spicy enough for Batman and Kirkland. AJ needs to have some personality to him, some edge. The Brits were 110% behind Hatton because Hatton was relateable he was the badass from the local pub who made it big. AJ has been packaged much the way Lennox Lewis was and the Brits were slow to warm to him as well. I can see that. I can see that being the case with Wilder too. Wilder is more himself than AJ but still not a magnetic or relatable personality.
The good news for fight fans is that their styles are relatable and magnetic. I mean they aren't built for a long time at the top but they're going to be exciting for the moment.
