    Nobody is going to remember him beating Helenius for sure and that didn’t exactly set him up for retirement.

    Wilder is the most lucrative fight he can make. He should make it or retire.

    Ah, the “you overreact” thing, the go to phrase (or in this case, insinuation) of those running out of arguments since the dawn of the internet. Other classics are “snowflake” and “calm down” as you are definitely being hysterical just by asking questions or counter arguments of course.

    And you are right about Fury and Wilder.

    Oh dear, look at my being a raging snowflake.

    In total, The Telegraph reported that Joshua has earned roughly 200m throughout his career so far. The fight with Franklin is Joshua's first since the defeat by Usyk.4 days ago

    What are Anthony Joshua's net worth and career earnings as ...

    Deontay is 37. That's a whole lot closer to 40 than 33. Hence why I said he's getting on a bit.

    He has never proven his power against a good, solid contender, so there is no point, here.

    he faced two decent fighters in his career . One of them was way past prime , but still hurt wilder and made him do bambi on ice dance , another good fighter he faced stopped him twice and clearly outboxed him once.

    Oh yes, Helenius definitely took a dive after Wilder landed that huge right hand which sounded like a shotgun. He should win an Oscar for that performance btw.

    This just isn't true. Almost as much as a myth as Joshua having a great resume.

    He proved it agains Fury ffs.

    The biggest difference between Wilder and AJ is that Wilder still believes in himself and his power. When AJ finds himself in the ring with just himself and his opponent his belief wanes and he questions himself. As for Wilder he can be being beaten from pillar to post, but in his heart he truly believes if he lands a big punch it will all work out.

    Self confidence is the biggest difference between the two.
