    If they ever meet, I think Joshua drills Wilder, but if Wilder lands that bomb like he did vs Fury in the 12th, I think wilder would win by stoppage.

    It wasn't a Fury moment but Joshua got up from Klitschko.

    Wilder is a bum a overrated bum if he fights Joshua he wont last long .
    I don't think AJ is having sleepless nights over Wider and Fury .

    AJ got up from a Wlad punch, yes he could take Wilders greatest hit.

    Yeah I agree with a lot of the comments he got up from Wlad I fed think he gets up from Wilder. Wilder has faced 3 top 10 opponents in his career now. 2 lasted the distance, one of which beat him by 90 percent of all accounts. The one that didn’t last the distance was likely in his 40s, and fighting off of peds for the first time in long time and he too was leading up until he gassed.
    The division may be weak right now so it won’t show- but Wilder is overrated including his power

    Joshua definitely would’ve got to his feet, but the question is whether I believe Joshua would’ve survived Wilder swinging at him like a maniac afterwards. Fury had the reach and head movement to keep Wilder from landing on him again while Joshua most likely would’ve got tagged again.

    He wouldn`t have got to his feet Fury was out cold, it was his Larry Holmes moment.

    Wilder`s blows had much more effect than Wlad`s did on AJ.

    If Wilder catches AJ with the right hand flush it`s all over, he`s far more powerful than AJ.

    The opponents that went the distance with Wilder didn`t get hit with the shots tat floored Fury, he has pure one punch power, devastating.

    AJ is far easier to hit than Fury.

    Wilder has fought 3 top 10 opponents

    Stiverne - distance
    Ortiz - stopped late when tired
    Fury- distance (loss for wilder)

    As you step up in competition if becomes harder to stop guys. Credit for stopping Ortiz who did have good chin. But much of Wilder’s power reputation is built on very poor opposition. That is a fact
