    If Wlad had outpointed Fury and finished Joshua they'd be written off as a gypsy that can't box and a big stiff idiot.

    But luckily he retired before killers like Joyce and Dubois and Usyk showed up ... :p

    That was AJ's best performance of his career. When will "prime" AJ arrive?

    actually if you watched his career you would know he usually attacked big men and was the aggressor... the difference is Wlad was 40 and his reflexes were shot he struggled with Jennings the previous fight someone the younger Wlad would of had out a 4 rds. and Fury still ducked the rematch even though Wlad was old.

    Fury’s style would always trouble Wlad and he have all significant size advantages that Wlad is used to having against other opponents. Wlad style is to keep his opponent at bay using his reach with a steady jab until the opponent is ready to be KO’d or just give up. Against Fury who’s faster has twitch reflexes that freezes Wlad’s offensive approach and his reach is longer so Wlad can’t just jab away without putting himself at risk for a counter punch..

    Same thing happen with Wilder who’s used to being the taller and faster fighter gets stuck at the point of contact because Fury feints keep him confused about when to attack..

    It was about coming against two big men who he couldn't out wrestle or in the case of Fury outbox.

    Wlad is a useless robot who relies on pushes and clinches.

    AJ & Fury totally out muscled him and didn't allow him to do this.

    So Fury's best win is a 40 year old useless robot who relies on pushes and clinches? Lol

    Not at all. AJ is chinny. Wilder with his windmill would have finished AJ unlike a hessitant shot Wlad

    Old Wlad's straight is as good as a Wilder's combo imo.

    Opponents who have sparred both have confirmed Wilder hits harder for a single punch. Wilder is also a lot faster and quicker than Wlad and is not hessitant to throw caution to the wind if necessary

    According to some sparring partners when he spared Wlad didnt load his blows as in a real fight. Wlads straight is one of the best ever. What many dont understand is that Wlad would have knocked out all Wilders resume without problems.
