    Really ESB? It's as simple as that, Usyk will "just circle away?" What if Usyk needs to punch harder than a pitty pat with his shorter arms and tall standing stance? His judgment of distance is good but he doesn't have the head movement of Fury. Usyk is not some unhittable God of Defense.

    In my mind Wilder > Joshua in every way except "boxing fundamentals" which in this case serves no advantage to Joshua and makes him stiff as a board. Wilder is a fluid fighter (but yes, very very sloppy).

    First off i as said think Usyk staying switched on wins, if i had to bet money on outcome then i would bet on Usyk.

    Wilder beat Stiverne by a country mile in winning title, last time i checked a KO was not only way of legitimately winning a fight, surely it a sign of a sensible fighter if they find a formula that is getting you them the win they continue that course, eg if Conn had stuck to his points winning way he likely would have beat Louis in 1941 and been heavyweight champ,

    Wilder showed he could KO Stiverne in later fight.

    Wilder being out boxed you say, damn who would ever believe Wilder could be out boxed, many fighters have been out boxed eg Marciano, but punch power prevailed.

    Furys recuperative powers were "Undertaker"esque, most watching the first bout did not expect Fury to get off the canvas.

    Like any such match up none of us definitively know what outcome would be, Wilder has not faced a master
    technician like Usyk, and Usyk has not had his jaw tested by a punch like Wilder throws.

    Match up is not likely to happen, so it all fantasy and speculation until they do.

    So yes i agree with you i think Usyk wins, which i stated in my first post, but anyone writing off Wilders one punch power possibly changing outcome of a fight, are in my opinion wrong.

    AJ has a good right hand, Wilder hasn`t learned enough to be in the ring with an experienced pro like Usyk, he`d box Wilder`s ears off.

    I have to admit that I would find the situation quite funny. I'd love to read the threads the day after the fight :lol:

    I'd favour usyk. But wilder has ALWAYS a chance. That right hand is ridiculous.

    Wilder does have the power to put most heavyweights lights completely out.

    I just don't think Wilder is technically good enough to deal with Usyk.


    I believe Wilder KOs AJ though.

    Usyk hurt AJ and will hurt Wilder.

    I think Usyk stops him.

    Wilder couldn't KO Stiverne the first time and Arreola got to 11 while Duhaupas got to 10. I would be shocked if he KOd Usyk.

    I wouldn't be shocked if he ko'd any heavyweight except Fury. But I need to see more of Usyk at heavyweight before having an opinion on this subject, and to be straightforward I think most here should too.

    So you tthink Wilder KO's Usyk, you thought Joshua would win the rematch with Usyk..

    Do you predict anything correctly ever in your life, seriously? How wrong can you be

    :lol:
