    Yes he gets credit for taking the fight and will have earned massive respect if he wins.

    Having said that, I think Usyk will be too good for him so if the odds are decent come fight night I’ll be looking for the value bet on him.

    It’s always a concern that the fight goes the distance however and Joshua gets favourable judging.

    He'll get a lot of credit and a lot of respect, but the spectre of Fury will be hanging over him due to the fact that Fury is unbeaten, dealt with a younger, unbeaten in a decade Klitschko with relative ease and unexpectedly steamrollered Wilder. His legacy will hinge upon his performance(s) against Fury, we don't really need a trilogy against Ruiz because Ruiz disgraced himself in the rematch.

    Yeah but Fury was just seconds away from being stopped by Wilder. He's lucky he got a count. Some refs see a guy go flat like Fury did wave the fight off without a count. Now the question is, who's better, Ruiz or Wilder?
