C'mon. You know those aren't good comparisons.

Ryan is a one-hit wonder, who has always only appealed to the social media crowd. Jake is a YouTuber turned boxer.

You know that rightly or wrongly, Wilder at one time was being touted as the next great American heavyweight champion. There's always been a tremendous need for one of those, since the days of Mike Tyson ended. Meanwhile, Joshua was the British counterpart. Undefeated, personable, powerful... both seemed destined to meet.

That eventually both showed cracks in their armor is beside the point. The point is that at THAT time, it would've been a massive fight. I personally was disappointed when it didn't happen, and gave way to Wilder-Fury.

Again, hindsight is 20/20... and no sport suffers from this quite like boxing.
