    I'm really uncertain and this is why this fight is a gift to the division. Hopefully it won't disappoint. I give the edge of youth to AJ and I think he will win, but I won't bet on it. Just too many unknowns here.

    AJ can't box like Jennings or Fury. Not even close. Do you guys watch these fights or do you just read boxrec records all day?

    Wlad to show, very clearly, and very early, The difference in skill level which will be profound

    It will be very clear that that Joshua has fought nobodies and Wlad has fought the best out there for 10 years and dominated the division

    Wlad by a very decisive win; more than likely a clean knock out

    I got Wlad. He looked good working out I think he needed the rest both mentally and physically. He'll be loose and he's confident. Joshua is to open but quite simply Joshua is taking a huge leap in opposition here.
    Good fight
    Wlad tko round 10

    I couldn't pick a winner but the closer we get to the fight I just see Wlad's experience and better ring craft edging this one. I think he will be on his toes, moving, jabbing, frustrating and nullifying the Joshua attacks sneaking in quick hooks which will put a dent in Joshua.

    I was hoping for AJ to come in lighter with a view that he would need to be quicker and more mobile but at almost 18st he's playing into Klitscko's hands.

    Fact is Joshua is overrated. He has beaten second tier competition and like Wilder is untested. The British hype up their fighters way too much which evokes a superficial bias emanating from their posts and views. If Joshua was from Albania or Madagascar nobody would even be rooting for him, or even think he has a remote chance.


    Flame on.

    Wladimir Klitschko is not Russian.

    I didn't mention Wlad, you did clown. You're a dick rider of Russian fighters talking about how the Brits roll with their own. You do the same ****. Cavity creep ass.

    Me.

    It is hard to say how much Wlad has left but even 50% makes him better than what Joshua has thus far shown.
