    All this criticism is laughable. Lets compare this to Wilders 22nd fight (dont blink or you'll miss the phantom punch!)

    seeing how not one other person in this thread would agree with you. I'll keep it at that.

    I find it surprising how some posters conjecture - based on tonight's fight - that Wilder would easily beat Joshua.

    Let me ask the opposite question: How well would Wilder have handled tonight's aggressive, forword-lunging Povetkin who showed crisp and accurate combination punching as well as fast footwork for the first 4-5 rounds?

    Well his performance will only deteriorate more by next year, especially for his style.

    McCracken must've been going spare. The jab had gone backwards from the Parker fight?

    Nothing about my scoring was suspect, find one person that didn't have Povetkin ahead. What am I? A ****ing UN Goodwill ambassador? My "biased and unhinged" comments?:lol: No one gave me a set of rules to follow, and I'm certainly not going to bend the knee to any poster to cater to their whims and fetishes. I give my opinion, if you like it fine, if you don't, I don't give a ****.

    I think Joshua beats Wilder. He's more skilled, hits just as hard, and has more experience against top fighters.

    Wlad also looked much better against AJ than he did against Fury and Jennings.

    Do you see the recurring theme? JOSHUA JUST ISN’T THAT GOOD. Simple.

    I don't like drawing nationality into this, but in this case I do feel you are right, something I noticed is pretty much all Wilder fans are American, not saying all of them are being blinded by patriotism but some are. Joshua on the other hand also got a lot of blinded UK fans since patriotism is blinding for most people unfortunately BUT Joshua also got a lot of NON-UK fans myself included who actually don't give a **** about nationality but follow him because they consider him the best right now. Wilder might prove me wrong if he eventually fight someone good but I doubt he will, I sense a huge fraud (I hope I'm wrong tbh since I prefer having many top fighters in a division)

    Or you could argue that his jab to the body set up the KO.

    Joshua isn't the champ, they're both paper title holders.
