Did Wlad take years off AJ or was he always at this level?

Wlad was shot to ****, people. Wake up!

He was shot against Jennings. He was shot to **** against Fury. And he was completely ****ing shot to **** against AJ.

 

I think vlad was the one slipping he was old aj I think has peaked and he peaked in the vlad fight

 

I think with everything being so big for Joshua, filling out 80,000 - 90,000 arenas. He's being more cautious, because there is more to lose. Having said that. If you think he looked terrible against Takam and Parker. Then he must be doing something right, because they hardly put a glove on him.

He has only had 21 fights! Mike Tyson didn't fight for a world title until after 27 fights. Joshua only had 15 fights before his world title shot. He is a champion that is learning on the job.

 

You’re asking which mediocre heavyweights could beat a shot Wlad? All I can tell you is they’d have a chance. But upon a time Wlad would have stopped them.

 

I dont think he looked mediocre at all. They werent exciting fights but he was clearly dominant against world class opposition

 

So when was Wlad shot? I would guess he was past his best but when do you think he was shot?
Jennings had just beaten Perez and Spilka who gave Wilder an argument

 

I don't think he was. He looked the best Wlad I've seen in years. He basically did a Floyd Mayweather against Conor Mcgregor. Which was take the fight to the opposition. Floyd got hit when he never should have, and Wlad wasn't his precautionary self. It's like both said to themselves "F it, I'm going out in style".

Wlad COULD have won that fight if he had not stepped off the gas when Joshua was hurt. His brother was shot before he retired. But Wlad wasn't. At 41 he looked good!

 

wilder didnt put Stiverne away the first time they fought and its difficult to say as Wilder hasnt fought at the level of Parker yet.
Wilder was in a fight that had drama with Ortiz but I would say that performance was more mediocre in that he was losing and getting hurt rather than dominating and that was at a level below Parker

 

He looked awful, just awful, in the Jennings fight. That’s when I pinpoint his shotness.

 

So do you think Ortiz shot or faded when he got to fight Wilder as he didnt look impressive and would have looked what you called mediocre against Allen and Scott?
