    After seeing Fury pot shot Wilder's face all night long has your opinion on the super fight changed?

    Could Wilder take even half the amount of solid shots from Joshua? Unless Wilder sparks him earlier I could see AJ stopping him in the late rounds.

    No Wilder will not handle AJ combinations. They are accurate, powerful from every angle and they come in big, unforgiving bunches.

    Tyson was hurting Wilder at times, AJ would finish it there and then as the best finisher in the division.

    Tyson showed how easy it is to dodge Wilders punches just with a bit of boxing ability.... AJ should fair well, and catch him on the exchanges. Fury isn't the trading type, AJ relishes a good old fashion trade when it comes about.

    No, I've always favored Joshua by KO over Wilder with the odd chance of a windmill landing.
    I hadn't expected Fury to enter the fight in that kinda condition and having that kind of inhuman recovery powers, but otherwise it didn't change much for me.

    Nahhh, watching Wilder struggling against the likes of Washington, Duhuapas, Molina and Szpilka are what made my mind up for me. While Joshua was dealing with the top names in the division and making lighter work of it. Its all fine having the power to knock people out with 1 shot but when its taking you 8 or 9 rounds to do it while getting tagged and outboxed up to that moment by gatekeepers i feel the chances are AJ deals with Wilder long before he gets a lucky shot in.

    Not that im saying Wilder couldnt do it, im not that stupid, he has a lethal weapon in his right hand and its that big its near enough an equalizer. But if that did happen Anthony Joshua would of won every single round up to that point. But personally i think Joshua has already handled and beaten better fighters than Wilder. Hes only got a title cuz of being protected. A fit Fury or a fit Ortiz would of stopped Wilder.

    No, it only reconfirmed what I thought and that is that Joshua will KO Wilder when or if they ever fight.

    Wilder just looked so poor against Fury, the way he was loading up all the time with the right hand, the way Fury could see his attacks coming off from a mile off.

    Wilder is just so easy to read, it's why a lot of the guys he KO's have been KO'ed faster by other opponents. It's not that he lacks power, it's just his opponent can see those big loaded up right hands coming and it's not until they fatigue and become less alert that they get caught by one of his wild swings.

    Wilder's best chance is to somehow survive until the late stages when Joshua is tired and more likely to make a mistake and catch him with an unexpected shot when fatigued. Early on I expect Joshua to be too sharp, too be caught and will most likely KO Wilder before fatigue makes him vulnerable to Wilder's attacks.

    Yeah, only slightly but i still favour AJ. Contrary to what other people say, it made me think Wilder has a better chance than I gave him credit for. I've always known that if AJ lands big shots on Wilder, he's going, But if Wilder can land punches like that on Fury, he can land far more on AJ as AJ is nowhere near as defensively proficient as Fury.

    Nonsense Fury stylistically was a harder opponent for Wilder than AJ will be.

    Prior to the fight I thought AJ will knock Wilder out in 3 rounds or less and I still do.

    Myself I don't think so & I don't think this will get cleaned up any time soon.AJ the man in HWs he fights the guys Wilder won't,also I think he beats Fury.

    AJ would KO Wilder like Prince Charles Martin. Easily and quickly.

    Different styles make it hard to say what a bout between Wilder and AJ will look like.

    Joshua on the front foot using caution and Wilder on the back foot, like the Stiverne fight, might mean a few rounds before anything big is landed by both.

    It's still a Joshua win by KO/TKO or points, in a cagey possibly boring affair.
