I disagree really. I had him winning 2 rounds and he had a lot of good fighting instinct. Even the way he tried to hold on and survive in round 7 showed skill. I think he's a natural fighter who can contend at least on the fringe of world level in the future.
AJ has a real mean streak in him and it's actually pretty sinister. I don't know if he'll end up being as good as Wlad was, but he's a different animal to Wlad, though whether that would remain the case should he get "Brewstered" remains to be seen.
Definitely dude. This man means to **** you UP! That round one, he looked like a maniac! I loved that ****.
True, I guess 99% of Wlad's fights after Steward would be more approriate, even still Wlad never had this kind of attitude that Joshua has.
I think it's because he was just so dominant. It became routine and he got into this groove that he felt like he never had to change because there were no challenges for him.
The shot that Joshua ate up in round 2 would have seen Wlad doing the Bambi impersonation we saw in the Sanders fight.
I'd love to say Joshua but at this point in time, I'm just too unsure, I want to see him tested at the upper levels still. Right now I'd pick Wilder.
