    Does this fight have some worthless trinket of an alphabet "title" attached to it?

    No Wlad is winning back his vacant WBA belt stripped off Fury & IBF belt that was robbed off Fury & given to Joshua on a plate.

    Either chin can go at any moment.

    AJ is so stiff the force of a Wlad blow will reverberate all the way down to his boots.

    Which Wlad comes out on fight night.. the gun shy safety first version we saw against Fury and Jennings or the Wlad who had confidence and fight first against Leapai and Pulev?

    Assuming he stills has gas in the tank.. I think it's up to him if he wants to try to win or not.

    If Vlad is a fraction of his old self, he will knock Joshua out!!!!!!! While sparring in camp it was no contest, Vlad was totally superior. How much has Vlad gone hill? How much has Joshua improved? Vitali said that if Vlad is focused the fight will be easy, and age will not be a factor.........I will no be surprised if Vlad knocks Joshua out!!!!!!!

    Up until roughly two years ago, Wlad was a dominant champion. So far, Joshua has never faced this level of opposition. This fight will help fans determine how much Wlad has slipped and what the ceiling is on Joshua's potential. Is Wlad through and is Joshua overhyped?

    The slightest chance to beat Joshua? Of course.

    Will he? I don't believe so.

    If he lost to a slob freakshow like Fury no way he beats a young hungry lion like Joshua. AJ by ko in 5

    Wlad KO win in 8.

    So yes he has the "slightest" chance.

    A lot of people are going to be surprised by the result of this fight. A lot of casuals think that AJ will walk through Wlad and bounce him back off the canvas a few times and stop him inside 5 rounds. NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.

    The Fury from the Wlad fight also beats AJ comfortably.

    I'll be amazed if Wlad sees the 4th round

    You think point deductions would have allowed Povetkin to score a KO? Now who's kidding?? Povetkin had no plan B, he just charged in over and over, and Wlad dropped him over and over with punches, not holding. Holding didn't make his face look like it went thru a windshield. Get a clue.

    Of course Wlad was better than Tony, he beat him twice noob. The question was, what top HW's that were the same size as Wlad, did he beat?....Thompson was one of several.

    Did ... did Dino just make a post that could be interpreted as favouring WLAD over another fighter?????
