    What like Wilder not responding to any offers and Fury turning down 60/40?

    No chance. Getting knocked out inside 5 rounds.

    My join date ? Really ? . I joined BoxingForum a few months ago yes , so automatically I'm a casual ****** ? What's the saying about assumptions being the mother of all ****-ups ! . You have some grade A level autism going on with current events , you really think the fight has not been made due to AJ running and crying ? Seriously ? . Did you ever wonder there was something more besides AJ and Wilder behind this ? maybe TV Networks , contract obligations , promoter interests , time management and calendar keeping . Fights are rarely made with no hiccups . I can tell instantly you are college-educated civvie . Yes I know what a glass jaw is sunshine you might want to learn what a ******ed heeb is .

    i joined esb around 2001

    by that time i was 37 and had seen 25 shows a year live for 15 plus years in various london venues and no idea how many on tv but according to gil gonzalez criteria back in 2001 i would have had to educate myself about boxing in order to debate with the big boys

    now that is something i might have said in the school playground in the 1970`s but hopefully we all grow out of childish statements as we get older.

    Two persuasive arguments for the two different positions on this fight. I could see either scenario playing out. It's what makes this fight very interesting to me. AJ should probably win, maybe handily, but he's never faced anyone with the high level characteristics Miller has before. Hopefully we can at least all agree it's a more interesting matchup than an AJ Whyte redux.

    A Whyte fight would be unpredictable to where the fight goes because of Whyte.

    This Miller fight isn't hard to figure out , there's not going to be anything unexpected . We are going to see a 300 pound guy walk forward and get battered and the fight itself isn't who should win ,its can miller survive a 12 round mugging ,which is the entertainment of this fight .

    There's literally nothing interesting about this in the fight itself more then the abilities of Millers chin , which is already a losing battle because how many HW's have actually stood up to a on coming Joshua when they weren't being battered to oblivion ,so unless he takes a prolonged beating we still wont actually have answers ? lol

    Really a poll for this fight should be what round miller lasts and maybe include a time frame of that round to make it interesting to see who's on the money.......

    Here i'll give you mine.

    @2:11 of the 5th round........ :ggg

    P.S I do like this fight and understand its a necessary one to but its a gage how Joshua can stop the real big boys if he has to ,I say has because he doesn't want a 12 rounder.

    I disagree with your schedule of events.
    #3 countless threads on how AJ is GOAT and would’ve beat any HW that came before him
    #4 countless threads on how Wilder and Fury won’t want none of that smoke now
    #5 back to normal but this, mind you, will be no sooner that 15th of June.

    People forget how hard Joshua hits.

    22 fights 21 KOs

    Miller isn't standing up to his punches.

    It's more interesting as Joshua isn't going over old ground in Whyte but I think Whyte would of been a tougher fight, at least Whyte has the single shot power to hurt Joshua. Miller hasn't shown anywhere near that kind of one shot power.

    People bringing up the Takam and Parker fights going late as a reason to Miller going late need to remember that they only survived as long as the did by fighting to survive. Takam was expected to go right at Joshua but chose to move and counter, he rarely traded with Joshua and when he did he was dropped or hurt. Parker himself said he wasn't aggressive enough with hindsight.

    Miller isn't going to be moving and avoiding Joshua's power, he is going to walk right at him and trade and that's why he'll get stopped sooner. He might have a chin as good as Takam or Parker but he is going to get hit a whole lot more than them and he can't just get on his bike and box and move to survive like them, he's too big to fight like Takam and Parker.

    Takam was saved by the bell in the 4th round. Joshua would have been all over him .

    The answer is most definitely no. Miller will be, predictably, destroyed within a few rounds. If he makes it past five, this should be considered an accomplishment.

    Klitschko had about the same power/engine as Joshua.
