    If I had AJs chin I would not be barking at Wilder.

    AJ hasn't got the chops.

    He forgot to mention he's a elite level bodybuilder too, right next to Ronnie Coleman. I mean seriously. Can anybody say that Joshua is legitimate since his loss to morbidly obese Ruiz. I can't see him getting past Usyk or Joyce. Let alone the Fury Wilder winner!

    Usyk is better than Wilder, Fury v Wilder is a meaningless fight.

    Anthony Joshua is an elite level fighter. He's also an elite level quitter.

    Ruiz didn't knock out Joshua. Joshua quit. Then smiled. Grabbed the mic. Thanked everyone for coming.

    He wasn't injured. Didn't need stitches to close some massive wound. Didn't need surgery to repair any broken bones or torn muscles or rotator cuffs. He didn't dislocate anything or rupture a tendon. Just kept getting knocked down, so he quit.

    I never saw a heavyweight champion quit like that with absolutely nothing wrong with him and then smile, grab the mic from the winner, and thank celebrities for coming.

    I doubt Wilder would knock out Joshua, because Joshua would quit before they ever got to that point.

    The King of the Quitters. The Elite of the Elite. No man stands (or I should say spits out his mouthpiece and quits) quite like Anthony Joshua.

    Long Live the King. (LOL)

    Joshua has looked better with better results against better opposition.

    Joshua has never fought, successfully defended his title or floored anyone as good as Tyson Fury.

    Wilder never lost to anyone as bad as Andy Ruiz.

    Wilder fired the guy who threw in the towel in his only loss to the World Champ.

    Joshua is the guy who "threw in the towel" against late-sub Ruiz.

    It is what it is.

    He's not wrong, but I've always felt Wilder would catch him. Probably the only time I would cheer for Wilder, as it would be hilarious seeing AJ get folded by his windmills

    Not sure.
    Of course Wilder, like Fury and Usyk, even Parker doesn't have such problems with gas tank like the bodybuilder.
    The bodybuilder still is very dangerous: he is very strong even for his size and weight and with 2 very dangerous hands.
