Do you think Wilder is miffed at AJ being considered the king of the heavyweights?

    Seems consensus in the boxing world is AJ is king ie the best of the title holders. Do you think Wilder is aware of this fact? (I think so) and do you think it bothers him?

    And another Q for the mix - do you think if AJ v Wilder gets made that Wilder will be the underdog?

    I'm sure he is. But I'd say he's more concerned about getting ktfo by AJ than his "rep." Wilder lacks confidence.

    And of course Wilder will be considered the underdog. There are already odds and they favor AJ.

    Personally, I believe AJ is overhyped and Wilder underrated though.

    Wilder carefully avoided Wlad. AJ didn't. Hence AJ deserves the #1 spot and the championship belt of the entire division. The rest of the clowns are just belt holders.

    I think Joshua stops him as soon as he finds his range and opens up on him. Within 4 rounds. It is hard to see what Wilder could actually do.

    AJ looks like, and fights like, a more complete and better put together fighter.

    Wilder looks like someone fighting mosquitos at a backyard barbeque.

    Both Fury and AJ stepped up and fought Wlad. Both are younger and had fewer fights than Wilder and AJ Is a gold medal winner.

    Wilder should have no issue with it.

    Unless he's totally delusional it should be pretty clear to Wilder that he's always been a paper champion. He wasn't the best when he won the title, he wasn't the best when Fury beat Wlad, he wasn't the best when AJ did the same.

    I doubt it bothers him, he knows his place and his role.

    Joshua showed how easy it was to make a fight with Wlad. Wilder is great at calling out people who are signed to fight others...

    For the love of god, someone should KO Wilder already, take his belt & his career; and end this false narrative that somehow he's a real champion cuz he's not!

    This will happen as soon as his management decides to cash out. Expect Wilder to continue to fight stiffs until the cash out fight is made.

    Both fighters have their flaws, Their styles would make for a great fight, AJ could get him out early but wilder could easily do the same. I lean towards AJ buy wilders style is very dangerous for anybody.

    It's his own fault. If he wasn't such a protected little baby with a padded record maybe people would give him some respect.

    He has no one to blame but himself, the fact he is still scuttling around fighting fringe contenders after 38 fights speaks volumes. People are not stupid, if he wants to be considered "the man" he needs to stop hiding behind a padded record and step up and fight the best,something he should have done some time before now.
