Either man will deserve all credit and be the clear No. 3, by far. Let's just hope the fight actually happens.
The time is NOW for Joshua to make either the Wilder or Fury fight. Either one is fine with me. Both Wilder and Fury have been inactive and Joshua is on a string of wins right now. So the situation will never be more advantageous for him then right now. Plus he build up some relevance again. Let’s not waste the moment again. The moment was prior to the first Ruiz fight. That moment is gone. Let’s not waste the moment again.
1st Joshua is highly unlikely to beat Wilder. And that does not make Wilder a GOAT or anything near that. An in shape Fury would beat him again. While Joshua is past his prime (mentally), Helenius is on the dock after the ship has sailed. There is no road at this time that will lead Joshua to the top or keep him there long if he lucks out and catches somebody on a bad day.
Not sure where I'd rank him after that victory, but I'd respect him on a personal level because he looks mentally blocked, an obstacle he will definitely have to overcome to beat Wilder, I do still think Joshua is better than wilder but wilder has the combination of unorthodox, hand speed, toughness and deadly power that levels the playing field against vastly superior fighters
AJ Wilder is not going to the scorecards The first person who gets badly hurt or put on their arse is going to get sparko'd and the odds say Wilder gets to AJ first.
It depends, how he wins. If he wins like he did vs Helenius, than no credit. If he manages to not be scared, than I would give him the credit.
Nobody has ever asked me that. I'm going to cry with happiness. When the prophecy of Fury has been fulfilled everyone will ask.
