    It took the BEST HEAVYWEIGHT in the world. The Lineal Heavyweight Champion to beat Wilder.

    AJ got beaten by Andy Ruiz Jr.

    Let that sink in.

    Fury isn't faster than Joshua. They're around the same speed. Fury is looser and more awkward and unorthodox, Joshua is crisper and more explosive. Both have the ability to outbox Wilder, Fury with his reach, timing and angles, Joshua with his well-schooled orthodox style.

    Wilder's bubble has burst, and I expect him to implode within the next couple of months.

    Well I picked Ruiz to beat AJ, it wouldn't shock me, after all, the one round AJ stopped running for his life in, he got beaten up in. And? Your point?

    Fury would beat AJ.

    It would still be an interesting fight. I was going for Wilder against Fury, but I didn't really know what to expect so it wasn't shocking. Joshua is easier to hit than Fury so I wouldn't be surprised if Wilder beat him, but I wouldn't be surprised if he lost either.

    And I picked Joshua to outbox Ruiz in the rematch and prove that the first fight was a fluke. My point? Simply that Ruiz isn't all that, but he still has the style and attributes to spank that flailing octopus Wilder silly.

    The fact that he had to change his entire fighting style and drop a ton of weight so he could run a lot faster and not gas, Proves beyond a shadow of a doubt the first fight was indeed NOT a fluke. He finally met a guy that could take his power and wasn't afraid to punch him back, how did he deal with that adversity? Run!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:lol:

    AJ would deal with Wilder the same way and punish him!! You won't get to see that fight now tho, Wilder had his opportunities to fight Joshua and earn a ton load more than he did getting firstly outboxed, then brutally beaten up in his two fights with Fury! The only fight that matters now is the only one that mattered before yesterday. The winner of the fight last night (Fury) v Joshua!!

    AJ would obliterate him inside 6 rounds.

    Ridiculous thread.

    Wilder has been exposed and there's no way back for him.

    Otto wallin would beat wilder.

    Not near as bad as Joshua vs Ruiz in NYC. That was an exposed bum, but he was already exposed vs a 41 year old semi retiree in London which was why I picked Ruiz in NY.

    After watching the fight last night I'm certain that AJ could stop Wilder in the first round if he went for it. Wilder can't fight on the back foot and the punches that Joshua hit Ruiz with would destroy him.

    That said, Wilder's power is still as scary as ever but only if you give him time and room. If you don't he cant land.

    I'm sorry but it's called boxing. Mayweather ended up being this generations best by doing it, Fury spent most of the latter half of his career by doing it. Joshua was up and down like a yo yo, took the immediate rematch and won by doing what Mayweather and Fury have regularly been praised for doing.

    If Wilder managed that I would be all over him. Unfortunately, I think that Wilder is done.
