Wilder talks Joshua.

This is a consequence of
a) there are too many alphabet mickey mouse belts around
b) most of the belt organisations are corrupt and have favoured promoters and fighters
c) heavyweights fight far less frequently so..
d) the risks of losing are financially greater

With respect to point c) look at the difference with MW or SMW! Far more frequent 'world' title fights because they basically box for less money, there are more of them, and with respect to point d) the odd o on their record is not career ending.

That's sorted then.

Well,,, except for the fact that I would be willing wager that a lot of MW's and SMW's have earned a lot higher purses than Wilder.

Probably true but Wilder has, as Joshua, fought a few stiffs on his way there. The MW's and SMW's keep on fighting despite the 0's, and the public will pay because its relatively genuine fights, for example look at Froch,Groves,Eubank, Calzaghe, Benn et al, all Brits who made it in America. Wilder has yet to make a dent in Europe and to be fair Joshua has yet to conquer the US.
