    And still most people here think Joshua is just going to stop Wlad inside 5 rounds. LMAO. Wlad is far more awkward and difficult to hit than stiff Breazeale. I just rewatched that fight and what i noticed is Joshua drops his right hand very often. He is too open to get countered by Wlads left hook.

    This fight is so intriguing to me. Is Wlad going to be an Ortiz after that Fury performance, or is he really "obsessed", and will he come back better than he showed in the Jennings/Fury fight. If this was Wlad from after the Brewster loss to Haye, it's an easy pick for Wlad for me, but he could get knocked out still. But just like Ortiz, I don't really have faith in this Wlad. He's over 40, he's had a long lay off, and looked bad in his last 2 fights.

    This. I think if Joshua goes after him he could get the ko not because hes so good but because i think Wlad is done. He lost to the crack clown prince of boxing ffs!!!

    Fury is damn good. I'd favor a prime Wlad over him, but don't try and discredit Fury by calling him a crack clown prince.

    Your comparison with Breazeale is flawed. Breazeale took shots early that Wlad wouldn't, just because Breazeale lasted as long as he did doesn't mean Wlad would do the same taking those shots. But Wlad is definitely more awkward and hard to hit, he wouldn't get hit by those shots that Breazeale was.

    And yes Joshua drops the right hand a lot and I mean a lot, it's a big, big flaw. Though the question is can Wlad capitalise on that flaw. Whyte almost did with a counter left hook when under fire but Wlad doesn't counter or trade so we won't see a situation where Wlad is under fire and catches AJ coming in with the left hook.

    He'll need to do what he did with Pulev and jump in with the left hook, do what he does best which is to get off first then smother. But can Wlad pull the trigger like he used to? It's vital he gets off first, if he's forced to fight defensively and allows Joshua to force the pace he'll struggle.

    his only "decent" win in his career was the **** performance versus wlad. the rest of his career was ducking challenges and fighting bums on short notice.

    Breazeale has the best chin in the division behind Wack. At one stage in the early rounds i thought his head was going to fly clean off his shoulders.

    Wlad wouldn't be able to take those blows for one round never mind 7.

    The question is whether he can avoid the hard shots or if he can get his own off first.

    These comparisons are stupid. Both this guy and Whyte took leather early that would put Wlad flat out on his back.
