    not true. We've seen AJ get up before, Audley never did. Poor comparison.

    He may well have gotten up before, but my point being he will not get back up in this one.

    you have no evidence of this though. He's never not got up.

    And?
    Sure he has got up before, but again i will reiterate my point, as you seem to not want to acknowledge it or fail to understand it because you are somewhat blinkered.
    When Wilder cracks his chin, he will do either one or two things.
    1: He goes down and possibly gets up, but gets caved in and stopped.
    2: He gets cracked hard goes down and doesn't get up.
    Either way he is getting stopped.
    It is not hard to decipher is it fella, so stop splitting hairs because when you do it can make you look silly.
    Get back to me after the fight if it happens so i can laugh at you, in the meantime go and have another dispute with a ventriliquists doll, because you appear to want to dispute most things with anybody that will keep you relevant...

    He did get up twice in his career but his heart was destroyed in New York against a fighter nowhere near the power of Wilder.

    Also thought Wladimir had no killer instinct when Joshua was down and he will not get 20 secs never mind 2 rounds to recover should Wilder plant him.

    It would be a fun fight but short, id back AJ slightly as he is the better boxer technically but in reality who ever lands big first probably win. Both have looked suspect at taking damage.

    This could very well happen but lets not forget wilder got dropped by a tap to the body against Fury and was wobbled by Molina. DW doesnt have a granite chin, whoever lands big first wins imo.

    This is all true but can you honestly see Wilder who was wobbled by Molina and dropped by a fury body love tap withstanding IF AJ lands a heavy straight right or uppercut ? Its a big if because of how gun shy he has looked but logically i cant see it. Its a case who lands big first.

    Even looking gun shy against Franklin AJ still landed big shots on Franklin that Wilder wouldn't get up from. Even some of jabs AJ rocked Franklins head back would put Wilder on his ass.

    Very few will be standing if hit flush by a big Heavyweight but Joshua is scared to throw and there are questions about his punching power when he failed to make a dent in Usyk twice, Franklin, Parker, Takam and Ruiz twice.

    It is one thing looking good wiping out old guys like Pulev whose chin was smashed in 2014 and another taking out warriors with a huge punch.

    Wilder was only 1 second from beating Fury in two of the three fights and I can see him landing a big one on Joshua early and knocking all fight permanently out of him.

    Ok maybe a bit much now Mitch, AJ can beat Wilder but he certainly needs to be a lot better than he was against Franklin

    Remember the shock when Joshua went down versus a mediocre power puncher in Ruiz, his huge wobble in round 2 versus Whyte, his huge crisis versus a 41 year old man at Wembley, the state of him when he quit v Ruiz and the state of him in the final round of the Usyk 1 fight.

    When Wilder lands a big one on him in Saudi, people will feel the pain in Japan.

    Good points, this all true bar Parker tbh, at the time he was seen as a dangerman and i personally thought AJ boxed wonderfully disciplined (even if boring) that fight against a fighter ALOT of people in the know (hardcores) said was going to flatten AJ. Also Parkers tactics were very dull aswell waiting for a AJ mistake. That said i agree with the rest, IF he is to beat Wilder he cant let him have a foothold he needs to hurt him on early on and end him early but also i think the same for Wilder at how he gases, though i agree again if he land s like he did on Fury the fight wont continue.

    Needs to get out from round 1 without fear and throw whatever bombs he has left.

    Waiting on Wilder to hit him while struck with fear is going to end one way as Wilder will land at some stage and open up big time in the unlikely event that Joshua could get up. That Joshua performance against Franklin must be the most frustrated fight I have seen since Audley first fought Danny Williams at the Excel Arena with both scared to throw a punch.

    Not sure how good Joshua really was during his reign because the division has been very poor for 20 years and the fights were not made with Wilder and Fury. The same questions are there for Fury now he is a confirmed serial ducker.

    Not accusing Joshua or Wilder of ducking but it was very disappointing that this fight was not made 5 years ago due to money and I am presently incensed with Fury ducking Usyk again due to money.

    It is a very sad day when huge multi millionaires duck fights because of money and get a pass regardless of who they are.

    My estimation of Joshua will go through the roof should he dethrone any of Fury, Usyk or Wilder to win a World Title.

    Said this all along. I wouldn't be surprised if it was over early either way. One of those fights that if the fought 10 times it would probably be 5 a piece, just a shame we will only get it once.
