Wilder has only one game plan and it’s always to land the big punch so we already know what it is. What will AJ’s game plan be vs Wilder?
Never fight him, that is the game plan because otherwise the Royal navy has to go on a major search and rescue mission to find AJ's head in the cheap seats.
Lol. I think the gameplan will be to fight Usyk and Pulev next year to take care of mandatories. Then a trilogy fight with Ruiz in early 2021 as a voluntary. At this stage Wilder will be hitting 36 so a unification bout would hold significantly less risk. On the other hand if Fury wins the WBC anything could happen.
I think the more interesting question is what would wilders tactics be against joshua? Hes been relying on the opponent having the shorter reach for a while now. He backtracks when they go on the offence making them reset. Rinse and repeat. Until they either walk onto his right or he catches them because they get frustrated struggling to get anything going cause his footwork does a good job nullifying them. What does he do when facing a guy with the same length as him...about 20 lb heavier....who,s also a pretty dangerous puncher. Wilders pretty cagey he doesnt really go crazy with the right hand till he knows nothings gonna come back. What happens when he cant implement his usual gameplan. Does he box with a better allround boxer....throw the right hand and put himself in harms way...which hes doesnt look keen on unless he absolutely has to for me. Wouldnt surprise me if he didnt throw the right hand all that often against someone like joshua. Wilders boxing skills will struggle when all things are equal in terms of length/height speed etc
Wilder will have to approach the fight against AJ like he did the first Stiverne fight. He will have to work harder for the opening
He'll do just fine with the height and reach, he's more athletic than Joshua and actually makes good reads. He landed a huge bomb on fury and Breazeale, both taller, one can move more, and one has power. I honestly think Joshua would be on his bike all night and try catch wilder with a right hand. Won't be so easy though because Wilder has longer reach and would get tagged first
I'm guessing he'll balance this newfound elusiveness with some of his pre-Ruiz II aggression. No reason to try and pull a Fury for 12 rounds if he has power. Avoid wilder's right hand, but make an effort to throw enough back to get Wilder outta there or at least make him even more gun shy than he already is. The longer the fight goes on the better Wilders chances.
He would KO him with a jab which Ruiz ate quite a few. Did you see how terrified Wilder was of Ortiz? Eyes and mouth wide open, wouldnt throw anything for 7 rounds.
Don't get it, didn't Wilder turn down a legit $120mil, 3 fight deal that included 2 Joshua fights only this year. That's arguably the biggest duck in boxing history for someone that bleats on repeatedly about 1 face, 1 name, blah blah blah and has earned a fraction of that figure in his subsequent next 2 fights. Has everyone forgotten that or are they just going to conveniently ignore it? Nothing against Wilder but let's at least be real here.
Fake news There was never a genuine offer on the table , pure fan fiction from those Forum"accountants"........however Wilder is a free agent but Eddie wanted him to sign with him and be his daddy, wilder said no.Not complicated. A Wilder/AJ fight was never on the table in the past and most likely will never be made....Hearns will make sure of this.
Lol, I think pretty much every major sports outlet in the world reported this story at the time. Hardly something cooked up on social media. But whatever, makes no odds to me.
Aj will box him, it's the best way to exploit Wilders weaknesses, he will also look for the counter through the fight and try and keep the jab consistent
Every news station and news papers reported Hillary in a land slide......how did that turn out to be ? News or Sports outlets are nothing but propaganda machines controlled by their handlers.
