    Interesting to hear the WBC call out a Wilder vs Joshua fight for 217 recently....

    Can't see it taking place until 2018 at the earliest but would be an interesting fight.

    For me Joshua's (Although I am a massive fan) lack of head movement leaves him open to some of Wilders big haymakers.

    Wilder similarly leaves himself wide open at times and Joshua's straight punching style could easy connect.

    However I'd back Wilder by KO 4-6 rounds based on experiance more than anything

    Anyone else agree / disagree?

    Cheers
    Jack

    Yeah... Better than the stiffs Haye has faced since mounting his comeback and has a perfect KO record ratio, stopped Arias... Haye doesn't want anything to do with Dragon King :deal

    "I'm 31 times out on the professional ring and suffered with only one defeat - by Wladimir Klitschko. Naturally, I want to meet him again. Three years ago when we fought with him in Moscow, the battle was difficult enough for me. During this time I gained experience and skill gained. Now I think I can handle him, "- he said in an interview with Izvestia boxer

    Kubrat Pulev said in an interview ,that he is not fighitng Joshua this year, the time for preparation for fight of this caliber is not enough. He will defend his Euro title by the end of this year.
