Anthony Joshua Vs Deontay Wilder

Joshua by a mile his is and will be better than wilder in every department

Until wilder actually does something his all smoke and mirrors for me

 

joshua was gifted a gold medal. he lost at least two fights that olympics.

 

True but his performance at the world championships in only his second major tournament was exceptional and highlights how great his potential is

And don't forget your light heavyweight from Montenegro was gifted a place in the Olympics in the first place over joe ward and Callum smith

 

Joshua is more technically sound. He's not unbeatable, but Wilder is a fighter who will need to learn how to do more than just punch as he goes along.
Wilder displays talent, but not a world beating jab, and all of the great tall heavies had great jabs.
This along with his tendency to go "wild" when he has a fighter hurt will need to be improved upon.

 

Wilders jab is very rigid and poor, and his power while good so far is definitely , firtha a reasonably durable heavyweight went four rounds with him while the supposibly light hitting fury had him out in 5


I honestly believe that even at this stage Joshua is the more proven prospect due to how good he was in the amateurs

 

Agreed.

 

Wilder's chin is pure glass, Joshua would knock him out cold

 

wilders chin is sand glass, once it smashes its the one of the hardest to chins to get back together.

 

Know that I think of it , usyks a more proven heavyweight than wilder, schooling medzhidov over 5 rounds is Faroese
Impressive than anything Wilders done

 

Joshua beats wilder , Joshua gets stung but his straighter punches get to wilder and AJ ko's him

 

Joshua's chin is unproven, so I can't say who wins at this stage

 

Not impressed with Joshua, my money would be on Usyk to beat joshua despite weight difference

 

Whatever AJ achieved in the amateurs doesn't necessarily impact in the pro's and DW, whatever the level of his competition, has way more pro experience than AJ! Such is the shallow depth of talent in the heavyweight division people will say that DW hasn't fought anyone till he actually gets in with Wlad! If they fought today I'd pick DW based on confidence and greater pro experience but in terms of talent and potential I think AJ has the advantage. For a novice pro he demonstrates excellent technique and combination punching. I just hope he can take a shot!!

 

Has Joshua ever been KTFO'd with headgear as an amateur? We know Wilder has :yep
