    Wlad at the age he was at against would have destroyed Nistor and any other heavy when they won Olympic gold, Povetkin would win Olmpic gold now quite easily if he was as good as he is now as a pro and was allowed to fight in the Olmpics, Whyte would destroy Nistor also, there`s no way he has a world champs KO percentage as an amateur, they are not as powerful.

    He has sprinters legs, thin down the bottom and thick up the top around his hamstrings/hips. He’s always looked like that, and there’s plenty of video of him doing weighted leg exercise. You don’t have all that many androgen receptors in your legs, which is why an increase in muscular size in your legs is no indication of anything. Sudden growth in traps/neck can be a sign of steroid use.

    Invulnerable looking fighters don't look like they're about to be KO'd. Joshua has looked on the verge of being stopped twice.

    I think he's pretty good but he's hardly got 80s Tyson hype.

    Never heard of the dude till yesterday.

    Just the idea of bringing up some long-forgotten, insignificant amateur bout (pretty much a different sport) to take a jab at an undefeated pro sounds like a kuntish kind of move, and one that reeks of desperation.

    PS

    I was cheering for Wlad when he fought AJ.

    Calling people beta is incredibly sad. The only people I've ever hearrd use the term are the sort of berks who talk about krav maga all the time and about times you weren't there they acted uber macho.

    Grow the ruck up.

    He was completely finished, his legs were all over the place.

    Common sense happened, Wilder is top heavy which is why he falls of balnce often after missing, AJ has a very pro team who would know this, Wilder should do the leg weights like Fury has in recent training, his legs are looking far stronger now.

    I was looking at pics of AJ yesterday and having watched a number of videos by YouTuber ''Nick's Strength and Power" who extensively covers bodybuilders who have sucambe to 'Palumboism' AKA HGH gut, I'm finding it very difficult, if not nigh on impossible, as I watch Joshua's gut ballooning outward over time, to deny that he is on steroids. I like AJ too and don't want this to be true but anyone in the know about the effects of HGH on the gut, if they are being honest with themselves, at the very least, must admit that Joshua's gut not only looks suspicious now but as time progresses, is looking increasingly suspect. Not hating, just pointing this out.
