    I accept your unconditional surrender. I can see why your moniker is BlizzyBlitzed.

    No.

    Wilder's wide open chin would have been shattered by a monster right hand, rendering him unconscious.

    Certainly not, his pea head would have flown straight into the crowd.

    That shot would have knocked Wilder out cold.

    Even ignoring that shot, Wlad hit Joshua with some hard right hands. I don't think Wilder could have taken those shots.

    Mother Superior has a shaky chin Wilder can expose.

    Wlad was old but I think he still had good power.

    im not saying that shot that dropped joshua would have knocked out Wilder thou. but it was devastating shot.

    Don't worry, it is only Joshua's fans screaming this like it's fact.

    Who knows?
    In such a big fight he may have found a way through it like Joshua.

    I was surprised Joshua got up OK and was not KOd or stopped. I dont think many HWs could have taken that shot

    Agreed.
    I couldnt say if it would or wouldnt but I dont think the majority of people could have taken that shot and was surprised when Joshua got up OK
